I couldn't rate Queen's University any less than 5 stars, simply because I work here. The building…read moreitself is amazing, the surrounding gardens are beautiful and very well kept. It's also very close to Botanic gardens which its nice for lunch time walks. There's so many places in and around the area to go for a coffee, breakfast or lunch and dinner or drinks, spoilt for choice.

beautiful campus Not…read moreas beautiful as Glasgow ;), but still beautiful nonetheless. In all seriousness, it's the main Uni in the North and due to that, it's very hard to get in. Most students go to uni in Liverpool or Glasgow because of that. Go on a stroll through the campus with some nice walking shoes.

Northern Regional College is basically a vocational college where you can study in many areas…read more They offer GCSE, AS, and A Level qualifications, for anyone who maybe didn't do as well in school as they had hoped, for those who wish to get their A Levels to progress to Uni, or even for those who just want to get the qualifications for personal development. In additon, many specific courses are offered, such as BTEC qualifications, Diplomas, National Diplomas, and Higher Diplomas. They also have a number of short term courses (such as those in computer proficiency, councelling, holistic therapy) and 'fun' courses, such as conversational French, Wine tasting, and cookery. I have attended the college in the past to undertake two different courses, which I enjoyed thorougly, and was very impressed by the resources on offer to me there. The college is ideally located just outside Belfast, and has ample parking space and a train station a short walk away, so it is easily accessible for anyone in the area or further afield who wishes to further their education.

i attend norrthern regional college to get my level 2 qualification certificate in childcare and im…read morecurrently doing my level 3 which i had to repeat and pay the full price again as my assesor took a dislike to me and never gave me a fair assesment so i never got my level 3 finnished and has to enrol again. i am sorry to say that i would not recommened anyone to attend this college as i feel i have experienced discrimanation,hassel, no support and tears. the teacher i had and assesor were very rude and made racist remarks to me in class and also told me and a few others that we wernt capable which was nonsense, i only attended this college as it was the cheapest i could afford, i dread the day i walk into the building as i hate it so much, a few of my friends have been "bullied" by the teachers aswell, i feel something needs to be done about this as it is not fair on students having to deal with this pressure. the teachers and asseesors should be there to support sudents but they dont, i cant wait untill i get my qualification so that i can leave and never have to go back there again.

North City Training offers course for school leavers from ages 16 to 18 for routes to employment…read more This is a valuable asset for youngsters who have no idea what the want to do and have no desire to pursue further education in terms of university for example. They offer apprenticeship listings for those wishing to pursue a trade and also offer NVQ's for various skills and roles within the workplace. My nephew recently began a mechanic apprenticeship with North City and they were very helpful in providing him with all the advice and help needed to make his choice.

I am jealous being a Queen's student that I cannot really use this complex for sport because the…read morepitches located here look immaculate and seemed to be used primarily by people that want to play football rather than some tramps that use the PEC. The complex is terrific and as well as being a great academic place for learning, it also doubles up as almost a little town centre, complete with shops, cafes and banks. Everything a student needs to spend money. My only issue is the working areas i.e. the large computer suite is a very loud place and if one was trying to do work, you would struggle to get peace in this room. Also, the library, though very large, looks like a poor Queen's Library and though it does seem much quieter (which is a huge bonus) it is dwarfed by Queen's new library so if I weren't able to use the new Queen's library, I would be a little disappointed. However, as far as an academic institution goes, this one is very impressive.

When I say I went to Jordanstown I did, but only occasionally…read more... I studied Politics here a few years ago and to be honest it was a bit of mixed bag of experiences. Firstly, the campus is situated far from Belfast, which means unless you live locally the bus journey out will certainly put you off heading to class on the many, many cold days we experience in this part of the world. Secondly, it looks like a prison. I'm not sure if it's just me but one massive building, aged in that late 70s early 80s fashion is utterly depressing. It's made up of one aching long hall, which is then divided off to 'blocks' (can you see what I mean about the prison thing) Each block is almost identical, there is no character whatsoever to this bulging monstrosity of a building. Thirdly, there are a huge number of people doing degrees which are only degrees in name alone. I'm not a sporting person but the huge numbers of country fellows and lassies who are always dressed on University of Ulster tracksuits drives me insane. I'm still not 100% certain if they own any other attire...
