7 Ways to Improve Your Student Experience


There’s no denying the difference that comfortable and spacious accommodation can make to your student experience. Selly Oak-based Unihousing is in the position to offer Birmingham students the kind of housing that help make student years more enjoyable. Whether you opt for one of their private and modern student studios or a house to share with your friends, Unihousing’s well-priced and high-standard student accommodation is ideal for a better, more comfortable student living experience.

Travel and Holiday

A good way to get out and get away from it all, travel is something that you can look forward to and can make for a truly memorable experience. A lot of how good this holiday experience will be is dependent on how you approach it, so begin by making a plan of what to look for and what you would like to get out of your trip away. It’s probably best to be realistic about what you can afford of course, but with a little effort, identifying some holiday options that are both appealing and well-suited to the student budget should be within your reach. With some friends chipping in and making use of student discounts, you can have some great experiences.


Stay in Touch

Though it can perhaps be complicated by the use of phones and social media, having good, solid conversations with friends or family is extremely important to your well-being. It can be a way to address any problems you are facing and stop you from becoming isolated, which is something that can affect anyone, including students.


If you do find that the issues you have are becoming a little too much and talking to those around you hasn’t helped, or it is just not the right option for you to take, then seeking help elsewhere is the sensible route to choose. The University of Birmingham offers a student support program that can help with whatever problems you’re facing. Your mental health is important, so make sure you place the right emphasis on this aspect of your well-being.

Socialising

Just as important in many ways as talking is spending time with others and socialising. An additional way in which you will feel less of the effects of potential isolation, socialising is best when it takes place around activities. Parties, trips to the cinema, nights out- whatever it is that’s going on, it’s an easy way to keep in touch with people as well as an obvious way to really enjoy yourself. And while money can be tight which makes going-out to places a little difficult, just having a simple get together with mates is just as rewarding.


Your Fitness

While it’s not always easy or convenient, doing what you can to stay healthy should always be one of your priorities. The list of factors that contribute to healthy eating is extensive and worth exploring online, but keeping fit is perhaps a little more simple and no less important. The added advantage with keeping fit is that you should feel better too, meaning that it has benefits that are emotional as well as physical. Ride a bike, go for a run, play a sport with friends- there are so many possibilities!


Finding an Outlet for You

Finding an outlet so that you can be creative, keep yourself active or relieve your stress can be a way of spending your spare time at university. Activities like writing, creating art, blogging or gaming are all great ways to express yourself. This can help you build character, and give you time to recharge your batteries after stressful university work or busy nights out.


Variety

As a general point, it’s probably never advisable to simply stay doing the same things and following the same routines for too long. It’s a good idea to be open to trying new things, especially while you have the opportunity at university. This way you will give yourself opportunities to discover something new and get a fresh perspective perhaps on your situation as well as helping you to stay clear of the boredom that comes with the over-familiar. Sometimes, just the simple act of learning a new thing can have a positive impact on you, too. A great way of achieving this is with societies, where you can share your new experiences with new people.
