It was a great experience - we got to see all the facilities and meet other students who were interested in the same things as me.

Cara Tennant

I would really recommend going on the residential as you’ll learn about the variety of courses they have to offer and the different facilities available to enhance your learning. The social aspect of the residential is also amazing. Getting to meet new people, who are doing different things and chatting about their plans gives you something to think about. The staff are so lovely and accommodating, making sure they’re there for you while you are away from home. Overall, 10/10 experience and couldn’t recommend more.

This residential is such a good opportunity for young people to get out of their comfort zone and meet other like-minded students from around the UK. My favourite part were the social activities because they allowed me to break out of my bubble and see life in a different prospect. I would recommend this residential a million times over. If you don’t know anyone, don’t worry, you will meet so many new people and make new friends.

My daughter loved her time at the Teesside Uni residential. She had lots of fun, learnt a lot about student life and made many new friends. She’s also now a whizz at bowling and karting!

I would recommend the science residential to anyone interested in carrying out further studies in this field. I truly enjoyed the residential, from being in the labs and doing hands-on practical’s, to experiencing uni life beyond the lectures. I also appreciated being able to chat to current students and ask them questions as they were super friendly and happy to answer anything

I wanted to say thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity. My young person got to explore the University, hear from other students and professionals and gain an insight into University life. Everything seemed well run and I felt like my young person was safe at all times

Probably the most fun I've ever had! There was an amazing mix of social and academic activities, giving me a real insight into what both these areas could look like at university. I took park in the law subject session, it was so engaging and helped me decide that this is definitely what I want to study at university. The staff and student ambassadors made it a very relaxed, welcoming and supportive environment. I came in really nervous and I came out confident and feeling like a completely different person!

I really enjoyed the diverse range of disciplines covered in the residential. I’m currently trying to decide which branch of engineering to follow, so having a taste of each was very useful. My favourite parts were the flight simulator and talking to the chemical engineer representative. As it was such a small, focussed group we were able to have an in-depth discussion that was very insightful. The social activities during the evenings allowed me to form surprisingly strong friendships with the girls in my group despite the short timeframe.

My experience at the Teesside residential was amazing. We did a range of social activities including Level X where we enjoyed karting, bowling and crazy golf to a Halloween social night where we won prizes. The academic sessions really gave me a good understanding of what it’s like to study at university and how different subjects work. Every member of staff and the student ambassadors were so welcoming, patient and kind throughout the whole residential and there for you if you ever had any problems whilst away from home. It has 100% changed my thoughts about going to university.
