"During my open day, I just felt at home. Walking around the old buildings and the halls of residence helped to solidify my choice."

Prospective students will definitely find Bangor welcoming because it is a friendly community and the people are always ready to assist and support to make them feel at ease.

The town is walkable, the air is clean, the people are warm and willing to help. There are lots of shopping discounts for students so the lifestyle is not expensive.

The Psychology department is amazing, there are lots of opportunities for development, and the staff are so supportive.

I decided to study in Bangor because it was very different to London, in the sense that it was very open and calm compared to the busy and constant need to be active in London.

I had always been interested in people's behaviours, communication, and coping styles and had an overwhelming desire to support people. The Counselling course ticked all the boxes for me.

The great thing about Bangor is proximity. Everything is within a walking distance. The cost of living here is low compared to other cities and the people here are very friendly.

The school has excellent lecturers, labs, training facilities and research supervision.

The Bangor Business School is a great, supportive, multi-diverse establishment made up of very supportive lecturers who guide students through their academic journey.

My advice is this is the best time to enjoy your life in a meaningful way. Never be afraid to try things out which new for you.

As a PhD student I have many opportunities, as well as my research: The best thing is that I can join any module that I think is relevant to my work

There is a lot of support is given, whether it is from the university or from the International Student Support Office or from my Personal Tutor.

I found the Open Day experience to be a positive one as I talked to a few of the lecturers I realised that people come from all walks of life to come to learn.

The Welsh and the people living in Bangor are just very accommodative and down to earth, making it very easy to blend in with society.

The staff at Bangor are really helpful and supportive, regardless of the issues students face. The International Office work really well, and there are always plenty of support staff and fellow students around to help everyone.

Bangor has got a great reputation for its teaching and research in Psychology and the student satisfaction awards made it even more appealing!

The generous 'Bangor International Scholarship' and the opportunity to be a Graduate Assistant at SSHES provided additional financial support and the latter also provided valuable work experience.

I am involved with the Afro Caribbean Society, where I get to meet people who share the same culture. I love dancing, and it is an opportunity for me to meet new people and to socialise.

For me, Bangor is the perfect place to study, to connect yourself with nature and to open your mind by meeting people from all over the world.

There is always someone you can email with any kind of problem. There are peer guides who will show you around the town, personal tutors who will know all about your course, not to mention the email buddy system. You never feel like you're alone as there's always someone you can get in contact with!

Everyone in Bangor has been very supportive, welcoming and friendly from the international student support team to lecturers and tutors.

After having a great experience doing my undergraduate and master's degree, I had no hesitation in choosing Bangor for a PhD.
