Queen’s University Belfast belfast

I got an offer from them and I was invited to an open day, which I was told I would receive a refund for my plane ticket. At the end they sent me a check which I could never cash because I don’t have a bank account as I only came to the UK for a few months and they never warned me about that. I asked if they could send me the money in another way and they told me to send the check back and after that I would need a permission from my bank. At the end it was not worth the effort as the money I would receive back was not even half of my costs. The cost of the fees are very high for international students and when I tried to apply for a scholarship sending a video, I was denied just for a minimal administrative rule. When I talked about my situation the personal that received my mails and my calls had the empathy of a dead fish. Very sad experience

Buildings are very nice. Most of the lectures are friendly and approachable. Some of them are angry people who can't teach. To much of a focus on academic research for their staff.

The garden was so beautiful! I still miss it.

Beautiful campus. As regards individual modules, lectures and tutorials, students should ask if they are being taught by permanent lecturers, PhD students or by individuals on other contracts etc. Ask about the type of contract (and how long or short is it). In my opinion, ALL teaching and related activities such as grading/marking should be undertaken by staff of at least lecturer grade and only delegated to others when completely necessary (e.g. to cover sickness).

Peaceful place! Botanic gardens are really near, which makes it pleasant to make a break from studies

Very enjoyable and nostalgic visiting Queen's again. Lovely graduation ceremony and after event.

My Alma Mater. A local university with a global reach. Excellent blend of the historic and modern. Vibrant and sociable.

Stunning building. Area looks well kept.

Beautiful university in Belfast. The university building is grande and beautiful. It was open so we can visit it from inside as well. Lush green garden and lawn inside. Calm and peaceful environment inside.

Nice place. Worth a look here.
