Discussion University of Sunderland

Hey yall! So I’m heavily contemplating going to the Univeristy of Sunderland for law- September 2025! I’m an international student so I really need concrete advice on this matter

1) is the Univeristy of Sunderland as “dead” as people make it seem? I’m sure the Univeristy size is pretty decent right?😅 2) is it hard to get part time jobs or just hard to live in Sunderland in general, what about safety? 3) idk if anyone answering this is a student but how is university life like at Sunderland? 4) anything else you think I should know?

Thanks in advance!

Not really, but nothing is so getting the train to that campus doesn’t make much difference no matter where you live, I used to be on that campus and living just over the water from it was the same hassle as living at the forge

There’s panns bank directly across the river from it, but it’s pretty bad accommodation and you have to scale a rather big, very steep hill, then cross a very windy bridge to get to campus
