GBS Has been an excellent place to build up my academic journey. Although we had several challenges, the staff and facilities are great! The resources are available and accessible to students, all the respect and appreciation for people who work there and students who choose to study here.

My experience is average. The lectures are professional and kind, ready to prepare us for creating a better future for ourselves. The SST is always responding to our needs.

GBS campus is very nice .Tutors are supportive and friendly .

I am studying at GBS and I think is the top University you want to study for Construction Management, I can say is a happy environment where students want to learn

Great learning environment with amazing tutors

It is quite a good place tu study,a big campus, canteen facilities,and very good teachers

Outstanding staff, and always excellent teaching.

I have had a fantastic experience studying at Global Banking School in London. The campus is modern and well-equipped, but what really sets GBS apart is the staff. The lecturers are incredibly knowledgeable, approachable, and truly care about your success. As someone juggling studies with other commitments, I found their flexible timetable options to be a lifesaver. The student support team is also fantastic—always quick to help with any administrative or academic queries. I highly recommend GBS to anyone looking to advance their career in a supportive environment!

My experience with GBS was great because the team was consistently supportive, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. They made every interaction smooth and ensured I always felt informed and valued.

A good university is one that creates an environment where people can grow academically, personally, and socially. It balances strong teaching with real support, encourages curiosity, and helps students develop the confidence and skills they need for the future.

I'm writing this review to let others know about GBS; they have some great facilities and also plenty of learning hours. Obviously, as with most of the big institutions, there are some ups and downs. But for those who are keen to learn and develop their skills for a better life, I encourage them to go with GBS.

The great think for me is the flexibility, the support I'm getting from the staff, specially from the lecturers. I'm planning to do the master after finishing my course with GBS.

A wonderful experience while being a student at GBS studying computing and being part of students ambassador team , very supportive teams . A wonderful campus to study .

I am really enjoying studying at GBS; it's a great opportunity to get a professional degree, which will support my chosen career.

Good experience and like the way they counselled me.
Looking forward to take admission

I am writing this to warn any prospective students considering Global Banking School (GBS) - Norfolk House, Birmingham. I enrolled in the Digital Technologies program in 2023 with high hopes, but it has been a massive disappointment and a waste of time and money.

1. Broken Promises regarding Level 6 Top-up: When I joined, we were explicitly promised that a BSc (Hons) Level 6 Top-up would be implemented by the time we finished Level 5. Not only did this fail to happen, but I have now been left stranded. Because the modules taught at GBS are so poorly structured and "niche," I am struggling to find any reputable university that will accept me for a Top-up year. My credits don’t align properly with either Computing or Cybersecurity standards at other UK institutions, leaving my qualification feeling practically useless for further progression.

2. Poor Academic Standards and Staff Turnover: The quality of teaching is shockingly low. Most lecturers are underprepared, lack industry knowledge, and are unable to explain even basic concepts clearly. It is a known fact among students that all the competent and respected professors have left GBS for universities that actually value staff and students alike. We are left with teachers who simply read from slides without providing any real insight.

3. Total Lack of Support: The administration is disorganized and seems indifferent to the fact that they have ruined our academic pathways. They collect the tuition fees but fail to provide the career progression they use as a selling point during recruitment.

In conclusion GBS is a "degree mill" that over-promises and under-delivers. If you want a degree that is actually recognized and allows you to progress to a full Bachelor’s degree elsewhere, stay away from GBS Birmingham. Go to a real university that respects its students' futures.

Completley wasted my time! Made me go on two days to do tests.I passed. Provided all documents, was told i'd recieve an offer then last minute they refused me. Said I wasn't corresponding which is a lie as I have all emails to prove I was. Complete waste of time!

My experience with GBS has been amazing as a first time student it was daunting and very frustrating getting documents, certificates etc accepted but the student referral department mainly a guy named Conor Clavin made any difficulties easier and went above and beyond to advise and help me along with the process. I am very grateful to him and the whole department. Thank you.

GBS activity discriminate against disabled employees they offered no flexibility, no hybrid working and no reasonable adjustments! There was nowhere to record disability or being a carer, no occ health and a complete lack of duty of care! Do not work for them!

I had a very disappointing and stressful experience with Global Banking School in Birmingham.

I applied, completed the required exams, and submitted all my documents. At first, everything was confirmed as correct. Later, I was told there was an issue because my surname did not match my passport.

I explained that when I moved to the UK, I still had my married passport. After my divorce, I renewed my passport with my maiden name. I contacted the Home Office, and they fully updated my surname and registered my new passport. As soon as this was confirmed, I informed the university.

During this time, I received two phone calls offering me a place, but I was still waiting for the final Home Office confirmation. Once I received it, I contacted the university immediately.

After that, I started receiving repeated emails asking for new share codes. I lost count of how many I sent. Often, I would receive an email saying everything was fine, followed minutes later by another saying there was an error or that my surname had not been updated. This went on every day for over a week.

I checked my UKVI account each time, and everything was correct. I also sent screenshots and Home Office confirmation emails. Despite this, my emails asking for clarification were ignored, and I only received requests for more share codes.

In the end, I received an email saying I had failed the English test and that my place was cancelled. This was extremely upsetting, especially after being offered a place and after resolving all documentation issues.

I cancelled a planned trip to my home country for medical treatment and reorganised my work schedule while waiting for confirmation. Receiving the cancellation email left me emotionally distressed and very frustrated.

This experience showed a lack of clear communication, consistency, and care for applicants. I hope the university reviews how this process is handled so other students do not go through the same situation.
