Student Leah Politics BSc (Hons) The support provided from all of the lecturers in the department is something I have greatly appreciated. I am able to approach lecturers with course-related issues as well as more personal challenges, and they always make time to hear you and help in any way that they can.
Graduate Harley Actor-Musician BA (Hons) The best thing about my course was the ability to learn other instruments from classmates. If you ever wanted to expand your skillset as a musician, you were able to get together and share your techniques.
Graduate Yitong Musical Theatre CertHE My classmates on the foundation course were all incredibly skilled, and studying alongside them pushed me to improve much faster. When we were preparing for our auditions, everyone was so generous with encouragement and support.
Graduate Sebastian Musical Theatre CertHE I enjoyed absolutely everything about the year. Moving away from home and becoming part of a cohort of 23 passionate performers was incredibly inspiring. Having the chance to experience a full year of professional training has put me in such a strong position for the years ahead.
Student Daniel Law LLB (Hons) Surrey Law School genuinely relish their interactions with students, so one never feels unwelcome. The learning never stops at Surrey; what you put into your studies you get out of your studies.
Student Riapreet Law LLB (Hons) The best thing about my placement was realising how much I could grow when given responsibility and the opportunity to contribute to meaningful work.
Student Kelly Law LLB (Hons) My placement at Dominic Levent Solicitors was an insightful and rewarding experience where I worked as a paralegal in the Family Department. The positive feedback I received from senior colleagues gave me confidence that I am well suited to this work. The experience shaped my academic choices and clarified the pathway I want to follow after university.
Student Frey Creative Music Technology BMus (Hons) I chose Surrey because when I was in the process of looking at other universities, Surrey stood head and shoulders above the rest, as the course seemed much more interesting and it honestly felt like I was going to come out of doing the degree with a wider range of skills and knowledge. The facilities like the library, synth labs and Mac labs are all top tier for their equipment and spaces that can be used for studying.
Graduate Vickie Modern Languages (German and Spanish) BA (Hons) My classes were all quite small, so the student-tutor ratio was very good and tutors provided lots of contact time. As cliched as it sounds, my year abroad really was a formative year and one of the best of my life.
