Edge Hill overall is a good university. The campus is really pretty and there's lots of places to study. However, halls have had some issues and it's a challenge to communicate with the accommodation and facilities team. My course is good! The student union was a bit of a waste of money because nobody uses it
The uni is always striving for improvement. There are always activities going on for students. HOWEVER: the ubiquity of could do more for student security/safety and also the hygiene. There are currently rats in the library and also rats in the main building.
Great uni

First gen student
The commute links are very convenient as someone who has to travel from peripheries of Manchester .St James campus is very arranged and plentiful spaces and resources for students like myself however I must say there isn’t much of a social aspect example societies or events going on I believe due to it not being Edge Hills main campus However since my course is placement based when we do arrive to campus we naturally socialise and she one another’s experiences .Overall Univeristy social aspect is amazing considering lots of places to go since on Oxford Road Would be nice to have some events or even go to Main campus as a whole
The campus is so beautiful and su is lovely but needs more marketing and different events
Student support is brilliant but their parking fines for students are awfully expensive
The university is quite lovely. The facilities are of a very high quality and it is maintained quite well. The location of the university being away from the city is a negative for me but most of the time, the experience in the university has been lovely.
Everything is great
Edge hill is such a welcoming place to study. The campus is beautiful and accommodation has so many perks. The portal and cleaner makes it so much more appealing than off campus. The majority of course lecturers are always available to help and support. Some negatives of edge hill is the location, whilst it’s beautiful many “big named” shops are far away and need to be travelled to. The trains are often unreliable. However the town in itself is so unique and community driven. Some lectures can come across as rude and unapproachable however the balance between welcoming and negative is good so there is always someone to go and ask for advice.
Getting support when I needed it most. Getting support with my dyslexia diagnosis
• Great atmosphere. • Staff are always friendly and supportive. • Teaches artists/writers and has an emphasis on the environment/sustainability, yet runs sessions teaching generative ai "art". Feels hypocritical.
Nice campus, great teachers, lots of support
Amply the schedule of the lunch time and have more diverse type of food and the same with the bus service
Amazing campus, met a lot of people from all across the globe. The staff is very helpful with any problem.
Everyone has different experiences. Some personal issues wirh the university but overall positive experience. Loads of facilities for on site. Big car park
Love coming onto campus, such a beautiful place to learn!
The compus is pretty and have a lot stuff to do, I think they can improve the floors because it’s full of chewing gum
Very good facilities and student support wise but definitely lacking in the student union aspect of the uni
Edge Hill University (EHU) is a great place to study at because of both the campus itself and the students studying here. The campus is beautiful and the buildings themselves are equipped with lots of modern technology. My fellow students are very nice, friendly, and always helpful whenever I have a question. There’s always something to do at the EHU outside of seminars and lectures. I do think the university could improve in terms of storage space in the accommodation rooms, however, this is only a small issue I’ve encountered as an international student who had to fit four months worth of clothes etc. into one room.


The campus is such a lovely place to live and study at. The Students’ Union doesn’t seem to be very active and is often quiet
The Educational Psychology pathway is brilliant, with a combination of large lectures and smaller seminar groups
The halls were really nice to live in and were such a great way to meet people in first year.
