Student stories

What appealed to me most about Surrey was the tranquil environment on campus. I was born and bred in Hong Kong, where you can’t escape the hustle and bustle, and unstable political environment. The only thing I wanted to focus on were my passions - music, singing and always exploring. 

Doing a foundation year has been so beneficial. I have gone into the first year of my Adult Nursing BSc with so much knowledge, a newfound confidence and the ability to support other students in my cohort.

I’ve been offered a job from my placement for when I graduate next year!

Surrey has great employability ratings for graduates and it was a good location for me. I also liked the layout and feel of the campus, I knew I would be comfortable and feel safe.

I've had the privilege of making friends that I now consider as close as family, and I'm grateful to Surrey for providing me with the chance to continually connect with new people.

I enjoy my course so much and I feel super proud to be a vet student at Surrey.

My placement has had a hugely positive impact on my university experience, as it taught me to have more confidence in my ability to tackle challenges. I also developed key skills which are proving essential in my final year studies.

The staff and tutors at Surrey have been extremely supportive throughout my training. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a student and my confidence in my abilities has grown.
