I am loving Uni so far. it is great to get a little more freedom here without the prospect of a mortgage. I like learning , it is something I actually enjoy doing. I recommend coming along to the open days.
Make the most of all the clubs and societies. There is fantastic support at hand for academic studies as well as pastoral tutors for anything out side the lecture halls.
it is been a good experience so far. University has loads of great faculties which are open to everyone. My advice is not to be reluctant if your not sporty. Lboro offers a lot more than just sport to students.
I would say definitely you have got to work hard, but at the same time to play hard. You can get a great degree if you work for it here at Loughborough. The student life is great!
Lboro is great....make the most of the clubs and societies . Drink loads of water after heavy drinking and before sleep! 2 pints of water and a paracetamol-sorted! On a serious not, get involved in everything you can.
I would say to approach Uni as if you were an open book, do not take things too seriously, do whatever you can to get ahead. Never look back and never regret any decision no matter how bad you believe it is.
Uni life is fun! The courses however are much harder than I expected here, I do have to work hard and a lot of hours after lectures put in. Being a sports Uni, Loughborough is still largely dominated by men!
My advice is to try and keep,up to date with your understanding of modules before the exam period is upon you, there is too much to do before exams if you do not, you have to,organise yourself well, but still have a good time.
Great to Uni be part of, there is so much going off all the time, I would definitely recommend to prospective students to really get involved and sign up to lots of activities/ clubs, it is also a great way to meet other people than just people from your course and halls. it is a great student life to be part of and I feel well supported.
Loving Uni life so far. Only thing that is not great is the hall catered food, I buy my own and cook it instead. I recommend bringing a car or buying a railcard so you can go to Leicester or Nottingham for a bit of freedom.
Great Uni so far, having the time of my life. I feel safe on campus and even on a night out in the town, everyone is very helpful from staff, lecturers and students. All the facilities are fab too.
I have really enjoyed my first year so far at lboro. There are so many opportunities and events going off all the time to get involved in, so get involved and enjoy your time as much as I have.
I love my course, I am thinking about doing a masters here after I graduate as I love it so much. Because it is a campus based Uni you get to know so many people, it is like a little family. I love playing sport here and the sporting facilities are fantastic, could not ask for anymore.
Get involved! In halls, on your course and at the union as well as in sports teams. Smile and make friends. Great thing to do is an industrial placement as there are great job prospects afterwards by doing one.
Yes, not too bad of a Uni, course was interesting, I have been here for 6 years now, I can not lie, I am really ready to graduate now and start my life in the real world and start a great career.
You get out what you put in at this Uni. I am really pleased I came here, I really do enjoy every day even though the work it tough at times and there is a lot of work to do. Uni life is a lot different to real life, you kind of get into living with a Loughborough bubble and forget about the outside world. Lboro is very different to any other Uni I have visited.
The student experience has been life changing for me. The campus environment is very student orientated allowing students to complete a degree and gain a variety of experiences which means I am set up for having a lot better jjob prospects whe I fiish uni.
Up this Uni is great...I would recommend having an awesome first year before the work load plies up for the next tel or three...drinks loads, make friends, have fun in every way you can and do a sport do you do not too fat from all the drinking!
Unit life is fu ! The courses here are much harder than you anticipate but not totally impossible, always helps,if you enjoy what your studying so make sure you make the right choice. Come here and your guaranteed an amazing 3 years at a least.


Lboro offers a great deal to students from both ac social and academic view. My only advice is to jump in with both feet and get involved, do not be a wall flower , you will only regret it later on.
