do not be out off if you do not get your first choice in the accommodation halls, off campus is still really good and is closer to town. Be sociable and go out every single night during freshens, because you make friends this way.
I like being at loughbourfh, but I am ready to get out into the real world now, but it has prepared me for this. I would suggest to keep up to date with understanding your course instead of waiting right until the exam period begins and organise yourself.
A great mix of sports, education and nightlife. Good accommodation in the centre of the town, which I like and I enjoy being in a smaller town rather than a busy city centre. The union has a good range of bars at night and services to help students out during the day.
Really loving Uni life, I am in halls at the moment which I love as it is a great social experience unlike any other. I like that our block is a small family, we eat, sleep and drink together. I love my course, it is quite intense but I do like it. I would recommend lboro Uni to anyone and everyone, it is very friendly from fellow students to lecturers.
I would suggest you work hard and play hard, it is the best time of your life being at this Uni but it is probably the most important time of your life to start it off as well so work hard and make it worth you coming and being in debt after you graduate.
Be bold and prepare to enjoy what will be the best experience ever. Each year brings new challengers and amazing friends and of course course opportunities. Join any rag challenge in your first year, go travelling and most importantly do not stay indoors in your hall....take every opportunity you can.
I love Loughborough Uni. I would recommend to get involved in societies, the gym, a sport or a club to make friends out of your halls or ur course. Get fit before,you come to Uni as There is Lads of drinking involved.
I really like Loughborough, it has a nice feel to it on campus and in the town. The town is small but it has everything I could want, great bars, nightclubs, supermarkets, good gyms and opportunities for a part time job whilst studying.
Excellent sports facilities for those who regularly play or want to try something new. Friendly atmosphere on campus especially within the student union. Recent changes to improve atmosphere have worked. I think you will have fun here!
I am loving Uni, it is great to get a little more freedom than at home and learn to be independent, to make your own choices, to be in control of your own life with out anyone nagging at you at home I.e. Parents.
Loughborough is a great town, it has everything a typical student needs, cheap shops, coffee shops, bars and everything in close proximity to the Uni. I do t like my course, I would recommend doing a course you do like as your studying it a long time.
I am really enjoying the Loughborough Uni experience. I would say enjoy yourself and make the most of all the opportunities that come your way. Try and get accommodation on campus as it is a great way to get involved and meet more people.
As a campus based Uni there is more of a focus on a university experience. The campus feel is not for everyone, as there is little to do on an evening if you do not drink alcohol, but on the plus this can be a bonus on your studies.
I am enjoying my Uni experience, I feel I am now ready to leave, get a good career and move on with my life. Without having my lboro experience I do not think I would feel this way- it is helped me learn life experiences as well as academically.
I like Loughborough to live and study. I would advise that you think hard before you choose which course you are going to study as your doing it a long time, 3 or 4 years on average. It has a great atmosphere and very friendly.
I am enjoying the student experience at Loughborough. The town is built around the Uni and it has everything a student needs from a great night out with bars and clubs to eateries and supermarkets. ... None of them far away. I try to enjoy my experience, it is one of the best universities around and knowing the right people and places is vital.
I love lboro Uni, there is something for everybody here ranging from sports, societies to placements, work shadowing/placements, charities and volunteering. People think this is just a sports Uni and it is really not, There is so much more to do than just sport. I would come here and get involved with as much as you can.
I absolutely love this Uni, I have been here quite a while as I made mistakes by partying too much and not working and enough, so I would suggest to get a good work and play balance and stick to it so your not re doing years.
I like this Uni, I am having a great time and experiences here. Union nights out are very good, facilities are fantastic and the halls I live in are of a good standard, however, the catered food is not of a high standard and really needs improving.


If I were to do it again, I would not have come to Uni, I do not like my course, the city, well the town is tiny and has nothing in it. I can see why people like it but it is not for me that is all.
