I attended Aston for 9 months and it had been a bad experience. It was a big mistake to choose this uni as I believed the TEF gold ranking was really good to study Mech Eng, not to mention it almost killed my future after doing the 1st year. The support I got was dreadful and a lot of the EAS staff didn't take consideration for the fact that everyone came from different educational backgrounds. Also the support I got from other students on the course was terrible.

Aston was a depressing place to be in as a student and so was B'ham. It was so boring as I hardly knew anyone and I was mainly alone in the halls. 2 flatmates were hardly around!! Unite Students Aston was an absolute joke!!

The social life was bad as well. If you want a uni with good social life and support (teaching, peer support etc.), you're better off going somewhere else rather than Aston.

The uni only cares about money and business, not about treating people and they do not understand that this is a burden on students (and parents)! Forget recommending this uni to someone else.
