The best thing is the Holywell gym and the facilities are very good. The worst thing is that sometimes the teachers do not show to teach class and they don't tell us beforehand. Also there is a lack of opportunity to play for sports teams because it's so competitive so it's not inclusive to many students. Nearly all the social events are just about drinking loads so there's nothing to do for people who don't drink.
Loughborough has provided an incredible university experience so far, the tutors and lecturers are very supportive and the atmosphere on campus is great.
Great facilities and nice campus. Course is interesting and teaching is of a high standard Loughborough is quite small and sometimes the nightlife can be a little be quiet, but overall have had really good nights out
Best sporting facilities you’ll find. Loads of things to do and watch as well as specialist lecturers at the top of their fields
Best - community feel, high level teaching Worst - general standard of housing but that's a common uni house issue, bit damp
Great sense of community and amazing faculties, good gyms too. Could be improved by giving students more opportunities to experience other courses they are interested in, same way people can try tasters of societies and sports clubs.
Loughborough is a great place to study because the facilities and staff support are excellent. The school is not only concerned about making your academic studies as smooth and profitable as possible but also about building you as an individual.
Friendly community feel on campus. Good accommodation and room facilities. Friendly helpful lecturers. The location as a town doesn’t have much going on, but the campus and university does a good job of trying to make up for it. Hard to book on recreational sports due to high demand.
The best aspect of my University experience is the mat I can be independent and make my own decisions without anyone to stop me from doing what I want, another aspect is that I get to watch soo many different sport matches. The worst aspects is the really early lectures and having a really long break before my final lecture of the day. I think 9am and 6pm lectures should be abolished.
Loughborough has such a community feel with excellent facilities. It feels so safe with all aspects of student life on campus or an easy walk away, this adds to the community element.
Sports facilities and labs and learning spaces are really good
The Sport! There is nothing like a BUCS Wednesday and the facilities here are insane. Ive been here 3 years and it has been good!
Incredible facilities, small town and student life can be lonely, but overall a good uni.

Great facilities for chemistry eg labs and also for sports with a large range of clubs to join. Large variety of societies.
Amazing Facilities, staff, and students. Course is rigorous and has opened lots of doors. Opportunities outside the course are endless and everyone is involved in some sort of committee, sport, or society. The campus community is unmatched in the UK. Wouldn't have chosen anywhere else for my undergrad.
The fact that you can have different environments on campus and you can basically live there without needing to go out very often because of facilities
Loughborough University is a beautiful university with a friendly community. There are many opportunities for students to get involved in activities including a variety of sports, societies and other opportunities including Action, Rag and media. The campus has brilliant facilities including the 17 hall accommodations. The town is small but has the essentials needed and there is plenty of nightlife in terms of pubs and clubs.
4.5
Amazing campus and student facilities. Not a very busy town but campus is great
Natural sciences is not prioritised as it is an extra course. Would be better with more communication between subjects and timetabling.
Very social
