amazing
The University of Liverpool is a great place to study! Our campus is in the perfect location, giving that campus feel but also being so close to the city centre. We have so many resources available to us on campus, from our 2 libraries, our Garstang museum, our special archives and collections and our state of the art labs. No matter what you study there are plenty of resources available on campus. Our Guild are also there for the social side of university, all of our societies are free to join allowing students to get fully stuck into what they enjoy without having to worry about cost. Support is always there when we need it. Our lectures are always available to contact and speak to with any issues that we have. Our careers studio is always on hand for help with CVs, job interviews and finding internships. The student life centre is also an amazing resource for students with disabilities or those in need of extra financial support. Liverpool itself is an amazing city to study in. It has 4 universities so is a very student oriented place. It is also a very cheap city so your maintenance loan can go a long way with the correct budgeting. Overall I love studying at the University of Liverpool and would highly recommend the university to others.
Very enthusiastic and supportive staff, lovely student city
Best aspects have been getting to see a new city, and done so very much with the help of the university with their events. Has a great atmosphere and studious ambience, but also is a place you can have a lot of fun. Buildings are all well kept and some are very historic, so being able to study in those is a please, some are a bit more brutalist so could maybe do with a change, but the interiors are still well kept and classrooms are modern. All the things you need nearby like a coffee shop, university shop, all in close proximity. Overall, a great university and i am pleased to go here
Great accommodation, lots of societies to join good facilities too
+Very supportive in amd out of the course great place to study -uni accom is very expensive
Liverpool is a great place to study because of the amazing city and great university. The lecturers are clearly passionate about what they're teaching so you know you're learning from people who care, and the overall university experience is incredible. The city is lovely and everyone's so friendly, it's a great place to study!
Such a beautiful campus and brilliant student guild
I really enjoy my course and I’ve made friends for life here
I love UOL because of the community!! It’s something different to what others have, here at Liverpool it’s so lively and everyone is so kind. It’s such a welcoming uni to study at and I am so proud to call it my home! Scousers or not, everyone at Liverpool will eventually become one with the love and community created at UOL. Theres something new on campus everyday and it’s amazing to see everyone engaging and feeling included!
It’s a great environment to study in and make new friends
Best - accommodation a good experience and libraries inviting for studying Worst - sometimes difficult to create meaningful relationships when a preference against drinking

I really like the location of the uni since it's so close to the city centre, meaning there's loads of things to do and visit, and lots of really great night life. Also Liverpool has so many unis meaning there's so many people to meet and make friends with. I also really like the look of campus, the older buildings are really pretty, but also none of the newer buildings are eyesores like some unis I've visited. Living in halls is really nice because I live directly in the middle of everything, I don't have to walk far to get to lectures. I do wish there were more green spaces on campus though.
Very good balance of study life and social life promoted at the uni making it effective but fun to be at.
The university has great facilities, such as the guild and the libraries. Furthermore the clubs at UOL make the uni experience even more enjoyable.

First gen student
University is a great place to study because of all the staff support and facilities available to be used. There’s always someone to help you if needed, not only for academic work but also other things too. There’s an endless amount of resources and books in the library too. Also the student union is amazing, there’s a whole building dedicated purely to it and there’s loads of society’s and really good nights out. Overall just a brilliant place to get a degree
Lecturers are helpful
