This Uni makes me feel comfortable. My lecturers are supportive, they know their stuff . The uni accommodation is nice, but it could be cheaper. The library is pretty good. Most of the time you can find the books that you need or you can get the uni to order it. So far I've had a really good experience at my first year, and I've made lots of friends. My course is really good, although there are one or two exceptions.
You can do a variety of subjects on your course, which you may have thought you couldn't. Campus is easy to get to. Meet lots of good people & the lecturers are friendly, well worth it! My best advice for new student is always do your work in time never fall behind with any work as it may then get harder to catch up later
University life is brilliant. I would recommend it to everyone I know. There is something to do for everyone no matter what you're interested in. The most important piece of advice I would give to someone about to attend university is to participate in everything. Just join groups, clubs, talk to everyone you meet. To get a feel for what you like and get to know people who are similar to you. This way you won't be short of friends or experiences.
My course is great, lectures are well organised and all materials are available online as well. Lectures are easy to follow and all tutors are available to contact if you get stuck! The social side is also brilliant Leeds has a great student night life which is fun and also safe! I would definitely recommend uni life, the socialising and academically creates clear sense of what you want for your future.
My experience at Leeds Beckett University is amazing. It's like a new life after A-levels. You become more organised and responsible. At Uni you need to be mature, as you are considered as an adult.Very friendly people and course lecturers, always someone happy to help and plenty of places available for advice and guidance!
My experience at Leeds is what I expected. I love my course even if some of the seminars are boring. The uni should provide more places to study in the library it's always busy. Concerning the city is easy to access, the life is not expensive and you can find many student discount.
My experience there was great!
My overall experience has been worthwhile. Leeds is a beautiful place with a lot happening every day.
My time at Leeds Beckett was amazing. I learned a lot, explored a lot and made friends for life. The university has a great educational system and lots of facilities. I loved the fact that the city center was near my student accommodation (woodhouse flats), which made it more easy to go to the library and to the city center gym
Leeds is an interesting city and the university has invested a great deal into marketing itself as a prestigious, world class university. Its research profile is pretty impressive and as a student here your are bombarded with all the achievements the university has made and the string of historical anecdotes that keeps the university interesting. This Uni is really good.
I really enjoy my time in Leeds it is a wonderful city and offers so much to students. My course is intense sometimes due to the amount of time you had to be in but I really enjoy it and it is well worth the hard grath. The lecturers are top and always willing to help you out. Look carefully into living costs, local supermarket prices, etc.
I will definitely recommend this university, if people want to study accounting and finance. I like my lecturers and the structure that they provide us. The seminars are helpful because the tutors are always willing to help us. I consider that leeds beckett give you everything you need as a student. The library is good and there are enough places to study. The uni has a great support and the jobshop can help you to find a part-time job.
I think the uni can do a better job of easing students into university life. Freshers was very busy and social and all about having fun, then the uni suddenly drops loads of emails on you telling you about what you immediately need to do next. The transition stage is just too fast and students are not told information in advance. Overall, it has been good.
I really liked my time in Leeds. The international office organised a trip to York, an international party and a Halloween treasure hunt, so they really tried to organise events for us. The only think I regret is that I made only a few British friends, most are internationals.
It's a good university, with good facilities and many societies available. If I would do another course, I think I would recommend this University. But at the moment, I don't like my course that's why I'm going to leave Leeds beckett University this semester.
just have one word: AWESOME. found already international and national (UK) contacts / friends, there is a looooooot to do here, from sports to socials to parties to just relaxing in a bar and the headingley campus is a great place to study
Leeds Beckett is really great. I don't think I would have been better without this degree at this uni. It is a good experience to be in this uni. It is in an easy going city , the students are very friendly and also the uni is highly recognised globally and also the job prospects are pretty good as compared to most universities. I would recommend Leeds beckett to others.
Leeds Beckett uni's a very social and inviting uni. Everybody is helpful and friendly. Its library is great open 24 hours so you can pull all nighters to get that report in one time. The union bar has been voted best union bar for several years now, and it is really good fun. the only downside to the uni is that it's degrees are respected, which means you actually have to work hard for them. So knowing when it's time to stop partying and start working is an essential quality for anybody studying here.
I enjoyed a lot this university but the communication is so bad, sometimes they change a room but they don't send you an email one hour before. But the course is interesting and I love the university overall. People are friendly, leeds beckett is the place to be.


Pretty poor and getting worse. It started ok, I was a little bit perplexed by some of the handouts and notes (tonnes of them) and felt coursework marks were very harsh. These feelings have amplified as times moved on. I’ve had tutors huffing and checking their watches during presentations as they have to sit through so many repetitive ones, why not mix it up a little and allot different subject matter to each group? There’s tonnes that needs fixing.
City life is great, the university buildings (city) are pretty close to everything you would need.
Don’t even know about any with part timers not really getting updates or invitation dates etc
