really warm environment with an easy to locate campus and lots of friendly staff and students around
University provided student accommodation is very expensive, so most people choose outside accommodation in the second and final years. Personal tutor sessions (1 to1) should be mandatory to discuss career prospects.
I would say the best aspects of the university of Lincoln are their willingness to assist students and the resources available
I love the social life that is given in the Uni plus it feels safe and everything is at your door step. Everything about Lincoln is so lovely and I'm very happy to be studying here.
Friendly nature
Best experience - we have access to all facilities by booking any rooms in majority of buildings for private use. Worse experience - the library rooms get booked up very fast! Sometimes it’s hard to book one for group work because of this.
Nice sized campus with central city centre location. A good variety of courses. Good facilities. Plenty of academic support - the library team are excellent.

I love how homely the uni is like it’s another home from home. It’s right in town and everything is close together and everyone is so lovely and kind compared to other unis. Just a great overall place to be. It’s also a lot cheaper than other universities for things like accomodation and living
The staff are all amazing, any extra help you need they’re all just an email away! The campus and university itself is beautiful and so is Lincoln. If you’re wanting to live in accommodation, everyone is super helpful and accommodating to your needs.
Amazing people
Student life is really good here, there are lots of places to go for night's out. I like my accommodation and it is quite modern. However, the university hasn't been very good for dealing with complaints.
Very friendly staff and a nice welcoming feel to the campus. Could however offer more support and advice and living away from home in the form of lectures but if you do need help there are people to go to.
The location is great, everything is within walking distance and the accommodation is modern! Although, Lincoln isn’t the biggest city so there’s not tonnes to do.

Lincoln is a beautiful place; I feel safe here, the uni is close to everything, and the support with my studies, mental health and disabilities has been incredible. I cannot praise this university enough. It is truly amazing.
All the lecturers are very engaging and the course is very enjoyable. The campus is easy to navigate. Better communication is needed.
It is a nice modern campus with a lot of resources but it also feels mechanical and distant in a way, There's not much charm to it.
Has a large variety of resources for students to use, such as the library, library staff and online resources. However sometimes staff can be particularly slow at responding to feedback.


really good uni, super helpful SU. Accom is really nice and new and clean. city is beautiful, night life is ok but could be better. there’s lots of good food places. it feels really safe at night, everything is nearby and within walking distance.
teaching isn’t consistent amongst staff. placement was poor but is improving- needs more work. not all staff are friendly- a lot are very friendly!! i’m in uni pretty much everyday- super intense. not always very relevant- they long out the lectures
really nice, really clean, new building, nice student energy. super expensive!!!!! close by everything, 2 mins walk to uni
