Sheffield is a very warm and welcoming place for Students. The union in particular is a great step in making students feel welcome. The atmosphere at Endcliffe (Where I stayed in first year) was particularly good, as I really felt at home within the first couple of weeks of my first year. The Uni itself is in a very accessible position to people using accommodation all over the city. I cannot knock the facilities of the Union, as there is something in there for everyone. The nights out at the Union are especially notable, Pop Tarts is in fact the best student night out ever.It seems that the students that come to University of Sheffield are all easy to get a long with, and I've had next to no problems with anyone in the department I study in.

Great city, great people, cost effective place to live, great houses/villages to live in (e.g. Crookes) and a great course.
