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.

My son had a great time and made some lovely friends. The residential was fantastically well organised and proved to be an excellent taster of what life could be like at university.

This experience has motivated me to work harder to achieve my goals. I connected and had fun with like-minded people who I would never have met if I didn’t attend. Social activities were hands down the best part of the trip! The academic side of the residential allowed me to explore new ideas and techniques such as DNA stamping and biotechnology. It aligned with my A level studies and will help me in the future. Before the residential I had never explored Middlesbrough but it’s now a place of great memories and one to remember.

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

This trip was honestly one of the best I have been on. We created a really good friendship group and enjoyed fun social activities at Tees Barrage such as kayaking and high ropes. I would really recommend coming to the residential. It’s such a good Uni and they have great facilities for cyber security, the new digital building is also really cool.

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!
Everything about the residential was super fun, even the academic sessions, the student ambassador helpers were really friendly. The accommodation is really nice with a cool, independent feel to the whole flat sharing situation, I would definitely recommend the residentials to anyone wanting to go university or considering studying a biosciences course.

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.
Teesside University was a 100/10 experience which I’d recommend to anyone. Through practical and engaging workshops, I got a proper insight into the subject I’m interested in. One of the most memorable moments was the quiz night and karaoke because everyone got involved and the energy was amazing. The campus is so cutting-edge, I really enjoyed exploring it. The student ambassadors were also down to earth and helpful. I left the residential feeling much more confident about going to university. Thank you!
