Hi there, I'm Luna.
I'm a bit like an AI, except instead of making pictures of people with 16 fingers, I can help you find the perfect course and uni.
Would you like some help in your search?
Our collection of real, honest student reviews of unis and courses is the largest in the UK, and helps you make well-informed decisions about your future. Student reviews also form the basis of our annual Whatuni Student Choice Awards (WUSCAs), which highlight great work carried out by institutions for their students.
I've only been here for a couple of weeks, but the constant events really add up to students life and reaching out for support when needed.
It’s a great campus having everything so close making it easy to join clubs and societies. It feels like there aren’t enough events going on to consistently be doing activities.
Uni essex campus is really cozy and sets up a good atmosphere for people to connect and socialise. The library is awesome. It would just be lovely if we had more number of private study spaces available to access (group and individual).
Best = work opportunities as student ambassadors worst = Work for the su opportunities is limited
I really like the positive sense of society, and the staff that are always there to offer support. However there are just some small general things that aren’t as positive, for example in a lot of the shops/food places on campus, there isn’t always a great variety of food, and it can be quite expensive.
The location very near to Colchester is fantastic and so is the fact that the support given to students is so immediate and valuable. While I do not live on Campus, the provision of events recently has been very good, both in quality and in number, and their provision for commuters through the commuters social is also good. However, I would somewhat criticise the layout of the lack of signs telling you how to get to certain rooms, beyond the central campus.
The SU have put lots of events on for Freshers fortnight and there are plenty of 'Come and Try' sessions going on at Essex Sport which has been great. My studies have been really interesting and enjoyable so far. Finding some of the lecture rooms on campus has been the only challenge so far.
The town is terrible but uni is good
Best aspect - a vibrant student community with a supportive and engaging Student's Union. Fab commuter spaces and services. Teaching is passionate and well detailed Worst - can sometimes feel lost in such a large University - both figuratively and physically!
The largest university awards in the UK voted for exclusively by students - find out which unis our student reviewers love!
Other students also liked these unis - you might too!
It is a good university with a modern academic staff, which is quite adequate for the department I chose.
PROS - The university has been absolutely stellar at providing opportunities to those who put in that extra effort. - Support, particularly the maths gym provided by the uni for ...
