Student Reviews

ENU experience

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

It was a collaboration between a SL university and the UK university. the best thing about the degree was it took place in due time and all the materials were of great quality. However, a major drawback would be availability of less exam preparation materials.

Great and not

Anonymous rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great University, with lots of resources, however the studying methods can be improved

Engaging course content

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

The course material is great. However it is a bit isolating and I wish that someone would check in to inquire if I am experiencing difficulties and how I am getting along with the course material as studying via distance learning is not easy
