Really lovely place

Nothing it’s amazing

The campus is very open and there is lots of green space which makes the university feel relaxed and accessible. Also, the union is a great place to work in the day for a change of scenery as well as being open at night for parties and union nights. However, at times I feel the union at night can be a bit samey week on week and so can be a bit boring so maybe more variety of events would help.

Sometimes course content isn’t very sport related and so can be a bit tedious when I feel that it doesn’t relate to what I am interested in. Also, at times lecturers just read the lecture slides from the PowerPoint and the lecture feels slightly pointless because we as students are clever enough to understand the slides and come to lectures looking for more information around the topic. In addition, some lectures don’t use PowerPoint slides and so the lectures can lack focus and can be hard to engage with. I am unsure about placements and internships as I am only in the first year so haven’t experienced these opportunities as of yet but the university is known for its range of internships etc.

There are not many part time working opportunities as Loughborough is quite small and so there isn't many places for work compared to all the students who look for work. Public transport is good as buses and trains can be taken to near figures (Leicester, Nottingham and Sheffield) and these run very frequently. Also, the university campus bus is very handy for making it to lectures on time.

William Morris is located across the road from the student union and so is accessible and close to all university facilities. The halls feels safe and managed well by the reception team and wardens who are contactable at all times of the day. Accommodation at Loughbourgh is slightly expensive but it is worth the money as there is a community feel and the rooms are open, airy and clean when you first move in. Also the internet and wifi is consistent with its connection allowing work to be completed and the wifi can be used for leisure.
