Great city, great teaching and facilities
The libraries have great facilities aswell as being open all day. Student support is top tier and they go above and beyond to make the course interesting and accessible for everyone. Alongside the amazing city, the uni is is situated in the perfect location- meaning you always feel safe on campus. It is the greatest Uni!!
More quiet study areas
Best campus feel but still really close to town! Best city and most supportive staff
The university provides many opportunities, and the staff support students both academically and professionally through internships, jobs, and various programs, allowing them to make the most of their university experience.
Really supportive department and lots to get involved in. The city is great as well and local to the campus. Improvements could be access to sports facilities, cost wise it’s quite expensive at £25 a month for students as well as additional £70 to join clubs - not to mention the extra costs that come with that!
Great location, lots of events, feels like home A different way of teaching, more job experiences available
more support for students mental health
Best - food on campus is good and really well priced Worst - lack of study soaces in busy times
A fantastic city, great people and amazing uni facilities
Good
I like to good vibes, lots of spaces to study, lots of shops and cafes around
Liverpool is such a vibrant city to live in without feeling huge or imposing, and the university reflects that so well. One improvement could be increasing communication around how first and second year students can get involved with the research/projects staff are working on as I feel like I’m only learning about most of this in my third year
More practicals would be nice but there are a lot of students so that’s not possible. Great facilities and a faculty that is very helpful
Located in the city centre. Lots to do. Can be difficult to socialise if you don't like to drink.
Some of the facilities are poor (often toilets out of order) food is very expensive from campus shops like cafes in library and ERB. teaching is good quality and lots of opportunities weighing careers. Great support for students by staff. Sometimes course lacks consistency
Real community feel!
Very helpful and friendly university with a lot of resources. The facilities are good, and the university seems to genuinely care about its students. However, the student union/guild could be renovated as the dining/community space is very old and outdated, making students not want to utilise it. Furthermore, the seminars/exam feedback all need to follow a set structure as the extent of quality is highly vast, making it unfair on other students.

My experience at the University of Liverpool has been largely positive, especially due to its strong research-led teaching, which made learning feel relevant and intellectually engaging. I also appreciated the balance between the campus and the city, as everything is close and student-friendly, as well as the diverse international community, which added different perspectives to my university life. However, the heavy content load can be challenging at times, and the gloomy weather in Liverpool can occasionally affect motivation.
My course at the University of Liverpool is taught through a blended format, with in-person lectures and seminars supported by online materials, which gives flexibility while still keeping learning structured. I like that the lecturers are approachable during seminars, office hours, and via email, which makes it easier to ask questions and clarify concepts. The main downside is that the content load can be quite heavy and fast-paced, especially around assessment periods, which can feel overwhelming at times despite the good teaching support.
