Under no circumstances study here- they just want the tuition fees. All I have from studying here is a 16K debt

[@pg4510]

As you mentioned in the video there is less interection among people so in that i wanna ask , are there any events etc conducted by uni for knowledge sharing ? Further did ARU students get chance to meet Cambridge uni unis and exchange knowledge? It would be great if you could share your insights on same Thanks

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hey. There is a student union, they organise events, society, other meetings like: outdoor cinema, sports societies, talents shows etc. Secondly, our uni is mixing sometimes with Cambridge students, but rarely. We have some events that are together, but as I said, it's a rare occasion, unfortunately. There are more talks outside the University you can attend at Cambridge university, sometimes you have to pay for them, sometimes is free.

Hello, is it easy to find a part time job in Cambridge? How is nightlife? Does the university make events?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi! Depends in what sector you are looking for a job. There is plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, food stores you can find job easily. At uni there are some jobs available as well. University is creating events regurally for their students, yes. It might differ because of the virus, but from what I know, there is a lot of online societies and groups you can join. More you can read on the university website :)

[@nothing_much515]

Hi, I have Autism and mental health problems and I chose ARU because it was apparently the best for health and well being. However I’ve been hearing horror stories about mean tutors and students not having enough support. Do you have any experience in the support services?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hey, these stories you hear everywhere, and each student will have a different experience. I did hear a few of them before I joined. Still, because for me it was essential to gain experience on top of education and live in Cambridge, the education bit was not as important. Hence, it is all about your priorities. I had enough support on my psychology course, but each module is run by different tutors and you can't put everyone into one basket. In all organisations, some people are more passionate about what they are doing, and sometimes you find people who want to be paid and be done with the session. It is life and this will happen, we are just humans :)

[@dominikakalinowska]

Regards to mental health support, that is correct. I was myself looking for help when studying, and they can do it in a few ways, so it all depends on individual cases. There are also external organisations that help, and plenty of phone numbers you can call for free like Samaritans or the Mind charity. From what I know there are some local ones but you would have to do research to find them or ask at the university :)

[@sudharsan5465]

Hey do you have any idea on how good their industrial placement is?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hey, I'm sorry but I have no idea. Also, I don't know anyone who would do this so you would have to write to the employability office to ask about it in more depth.

[@creightonjason]

Awful, one guy managed to get a 'placement' as a drivers mate !! Which was acceptable to the UNI. Just avoid the place

[@Rajesh-mc2py]

Is University is providing placement for career?

[@dominikakalinowska]

There are options of placements, internships and work experience. You would have to go to the Carrer/employment office at uni once you are a student and learn about all of the options for you :) some industries have different opinions, wether it's practice or academic opportunity. Just look around. Also, if you find a nice place want to work in, or have a placement, the university can help you get there :)

Hard to say. I finished uni now and have no clue how they do exams. You would have to write an email to the university. I predict, half will be online, half in person. But it all depends on the government restrictions.

Hi Dominika, Thank you for the video. You gave us a lot of information about the school. So, a couple of days ago I applied ARU for MA Human Resources Management and now i'm in the waiting process. Actually, I'm already a little stressed because of my bad English. I am gonna take the ielts academic but what i fear most is the presentations. I've heard that UK universities have a lot of presentations instead of exams in their master's programmes. I have a question for you.I realized that English is not your mother tongue either. So how did you deal with such situations? Was your English as good in the beginning as it is today? Could you give me some tips to being ready about this tpye of situations. Thanks a lot...

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi, first of all, take a deep breath. Your English is perfect, you are better than you think you are! English language skills will come to you when you practice, learn, read and speak at loud. They come when you have fun. I did struggle at the beginning but I can guarantee you you will smash it after a few months of practice and living in English speaking country. That is true, we had a few presentations, but they are usually easier to prepare and you know what to expect. I would choose a presentation over an exam any time :D You will do great! Just take it easy. There are so many international students, equally stressed about their English skills. You are all in the same boat x

[@m.ince_91]

​@@dominikakalinowska Thank you for your super fast answer :) when I write in English I feel more comfortable than I speak but what you said made me feel better.

Hey, im considering MBA from Anglia. Is it worthy enough to go for Anglia?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi. I can tell you about my experience as a psychology student, like in this video but not about the MBA course. From what I know every MBA is different and you would have to consider advantages and disadvantages of studying it at ARU comparing to other universities you might be considering. Do you consider any others?

[@oluwafisayoakintade2945]

Hey I just got my offer letter to Anglia Ruskin so I went ahead to check the reviews and all of them were bad.

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi, all universities has good and bad sides. The decision is only on you. I was satisfied with my course, I lived in Cambridge, experienced different life, worked where I liked working whilst studying, gained additional voluntary experience. It all combined (for me) was worth more than going to the best university with the best reviews. It is all about your priorities, what is important TO YOU. What YOU want to do in the future, and how determined you are to create a life you want. Reviews are just opinions of someone's perspective and experiences, and as we know, the same apple can be sweet for one, and sour for the other person. I would read them, but judge on your own, what else can you get whilst studying here.

Hey msc foundation in clinical psychology is it a good course to become clinical psychologist?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi, it's definitely a good start, and great step forward! To become a clinical psychologist you would have to do some additional courses after masters, however I would recommend contacting an existing clinical psychologist on LinkedIn for example to learn about the path forward as masters might not be enough. Good luck:)

[@katieadams652]

How was your first year accommodation/where did you stay?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi, I stayed in a shared house accommodation rented by the university - it was a Thoday Street House. We had 6 people in the house, a really nice one. Everyone was from a different country. It was actually one of the cheapest option, to rent a shared house, managed by the university so all bills were included in one price rent. I found it on the university accommodation website :)

[@amarachikalu7849]

Which of their accommodation property is best for you?

[@amarachikalu7849]

I meant in cambridge school accommodation as they have lots of properties

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi, the question should be directed to you, which one is best for you? It all depends on your budget, how many people you want in the house/ building, do you mind sharing amenities, how far do you wany to live from uni? There are lots of questions you have to ask yourself. For me, I chose one of the cheapest, so budget was my priority. I didn't mind sharing kitchen and bathrooms so I chosen thoday street shared house accommodation.

[@danushvel7205]

Hi Dominika, I heard rumors about this university like staffs partial to those who give gifts and there is no communication between students and university.Universities are not reply to any requests etc...Are these rumors true?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hello Danush, I can't confirm these rumors as I did not experience them personally and have never heard of them. All departments and lecturers work differently. No university is perfect, you can listen to rumors about all universities. So you need to make a judgment yourself, however, I would not be worried about it. If you want to study psychology, the lecturers in this department were very good and I would not be worried about these rumors.

Thanks for sharing your true opinion. Could you tell me, is ARU a good university for socializing ?

[@dominikakalinowska]

Hi Abhishek, every uni is good for socializing. That's the main point of the university, to network, socialise and meet other like-minded people. ARU was good to socialise before the pandemic as we had meetings, societies, parties, evening meeting in the student union. I am not sure how is it like at the moment as I am not a student anymore. Overall, to answer your question, yes, ARU is good for socialising! :) Cambridge is full of coffee shops, restaurants, clubs, and so on, to be able to go out and socialise as well. Hope that helped :)
