Ellie R
United Kingdom, Undergraduate
Language, 2023
OverallI would highly recommend Cardiff university to any aspiring students. Academically, the University constantly strives for excellence, and throughout your studies, they constantly assist you in performing at the best of your ability. The staff are very helpful and understanding and are always kind and positive. The student life in Cardiff is also outstanding, with many different social groups and societies, there really is something for everyone.

Overall
The languages hub is exciting and friendly, the teachers and team are there to help and answer any questions.
The inclusion of cultures modules in the study is interesting and enriching, giving students an insight into the culture of the language that they are studying.
Accommodation varies, the nicest accommodation is a 25 minute walk from university, but spacious and clean.
