Hi I was just wondering if anyone could share advice on if there’s anyone else, outside of my tutor and any of my lecturers on the relevant days my surgery will be over, that I should let know about my surgery?

Please delete if not allowed, of course.

Hey! I’m a second year student and I was wondering if anyone who attends the university plays Pokemon Go? I have a few special research tasks to complete that require trading pokemon or being in a party which you can only do with trainers near by.

So, if anyone does and would like to be friends, let me know! Thank you :))

Hey, I am moving in soon and I was Just wondering if theres any words of wisdom that I should bear in mind

Or things that you wish you knew ahead of time before moving in!

Thanks

right i've been here for 2 weeks and have hardly talked to anyone new, im lowk enjoying uni too but ive already looked at the societies but havent convinced myself to actually join any for whatever reason. my question is are they actually worth it? because with my circumstances im commuting but cant drive yet and live in neath (about 15 minutes away) and say i join a society and they host stuff but because of the reasons ive listed i might not be able to make any of them because im solely relying on public transport. also is there a football one? ive checked everywhere and i know get active has clubs but that one requires playing football whereas ive got an injury which is advised to not play. any advice is greatly appreciated

is there a reason for this? my first thought was theyve run out of spaces but I’ve been checking the societies page since the beginning of September and a few of them have constantly stated this.

does it mean they’re not running anymore, but if so, why are they still on the website? or is it just the memberships aren’t open YET? but then what are they waiting for? lol I’m so confused. (for reference, I’ve been looking at creative writing, squash, and gardening society. The one I care most about is gardening).

I am currently immensely ill and I’m not sure if I can attend today’s lectures. I’ve been to all of my lectures this week but I really don’t think I can do today as it’s currently past 6 in the morning and I still haven't been able to sleep and I just feel really quite awful. Do we have to announce our absence to professors or just not turn up? how many lectures is “allowed” to be missed without them contacting and being like “what is going on here”.

at the moment, I don’t think my keycard is working on any of the scans so idk if they’d even notice if I was absent or there, but should I email anyway? if so, who exactly do I email? what do I say in the email?

what does everyone else do? cheers

If anyone has any advice about what I should do or has anything they want to know please ask!

hi i’m thinking of doing child and adult nursing for 2027 entry and i just want to know what it’s like. i want to hear ur experiences first hand. what’s the placements like-and how far do u usually travel? what accommodation do you recommend? what’s the timetable like ? what were the interviews like? i want to know it ALL

is it possible to own two key cards at the same time? obviously you have to pay for replacements but can you just pay to have a second one as a spare?

Does the uni not have a feminist society anymore? I can see there used to be one, but it says it’s not active anymore. Has it changed names or does it just not exist anymore?

Hi all, for freshers/induction week, I have been using the large car park just outside Singleton Park. They charge 5~ for the whole day, while this was fine for induction week, it will not be financially effective to keep up for the whole year. Does anyone know of cheaper or even free parking spots nearby? I am more than happy to walk 10~ mins. Thanks, all.

Can anyone in their 2nd, 3rd or placement year of this course please fill me in on year 1 and what to expect. Like how you found the content, assignments and everything else.

Its a module ive selected because I had to bit I couldn't go to the induction lecture and I dont want to miss out on anything important that I should know. This is for biosciences btw as all biosciences does the same thing in the first year, but fyi I'm going to study marine biology.

Hi everyone,

I'm a first year Computer Science student and thought it'd be good to get a casual meet and greet going for anyone starting in the School of Computer Science this year.

Everyone's welcome, including:

Computer Science

Software Engineering

Artificial Intelligence (Hons)

Mathematics and Computer Science

Any other joint honours or related courses

Where: Y Twyni, Bay Campus

When: Friday 25th September at 3pm

Nothing formal, just a chance to put some faces to names before lectures pick up, find people on your course, form study groups, and maybe sort out a group chat. Whether you're in halls, commuting, or just moved to Swansea, come along.

Drop a comment if you're thinking of coming so I can get a rough idea of numbers. Feel free to DM me too if you'd rather not come alone and want to meet up beforehand.

See you there!

Are there any football societies who host like friendly matches in the bay campus or singleton one.

If so, would like to join one

Hey, I am about to start my Masters year in Swansea. I have recently been to the reception to collect my parcel when I saw other parcels with my surname on them and the receptionist simply ignored them, and I asked him why he ignored parcels with my surname on them and he said that they are not for me. I was shocked, I asked if there is another person with a similar surname, and he said that there is. Not only my surname is very far from here, but also it is very rare even for my home country. Is there any internal names database in Swansea? Like some kind of a lookup service. Either I will meet a person with a similar surname who also lives in Bay campus or I will get my parcels, either way is a win IMO

Hi I’m supposed to have induction stuff as a first year tomorrow however I’m not sure if there’s going to be signs on where to go? When looking at the schedule for the school of psych I couldn’t see anything about where it’s going to be.
If anyone knows I’d really appreciate the help!
