That’s according to the National Student Survey 2024 and the Complete University Guide 2025. They rank universities based on the stuff that’s really important to students like course satisfaction, teaching, academic support and assessment and feedback. And the Times Good University Guide 2025 and The Daily Mail University Guide 2024 both placed us in the UK Top 10 for student experience. With a student population of only 4000, we’re very proud that our students get so much out of our friendly, personal approach.
We were ranked as the TOP Modern University in Scotland for student satisfaction in the National Student Survey in both 2023 and 2024 - the sector's key measure for student satisfaction. Being small means we can get to know you, and support you as much as we can.

What does that mean for you as a student? It means you’ll get all the culture and excitement of a larger city, but with affordable accommodation and the friendliness of a smaller town!
