The city of Liverpool is the perfect student environment, a city campus that is easily accessible by public transport from student living areas. A dynamic mix of culture, architecture, and people make Liverpool an ideal university experience. Public transport could be better catered for students, the campaign for a night bus back to popular student areas is an ongoing issue. The student union could do more to promote events, experiences, and activities available to those 'out of the loop'. The campus is easy to navigate and I enjoy the eclectic mix of architectures and green spaces. Facilities are of good standard, but the libraries could do with better heating!
The campus is very lovely and well spaced out, although the buildings could use some updating.
I love how closely connected you feel to Liverpool City Centre by having such a central campus. It is great to be able to spend so much time exploring Liverpool and almost feeling closely connected to student life in the heart of Liverpool. I am enjoying my course and the skills it is providing me for my chosen career path, and I like the way Liverpool provide a lot of opportunities to get involved as a student in an extra-curricular perspective. If I could change one thing, it would to be have better communication from the Liverpool Guild of events that are happening. I have missed out on a few things that I simply were not aware that were happening as the social media profiles of the guild cover such a broad range of topics. So perhaps having separate social media channels for different areas.
the location and the student feel to the city and campus
As a former student of the University of Liverpool, I can reflect on the best and worst parts of my experience studying there. One of the best parts of studying at the University of Liverpool was the quality of education. The courses were taught by knowledgeable professors who were passionate about their subject matter. They challenged us to think critically and encouraged us to engage in discussions and debates. The university also had a strong emphasis on research, which provided me with opportunities to work on cutting-edge projects and gain valuable experience in my field of study. Another great aspect of studying at the University of Liverpool was the diversity of the student body. I met people from all over the world, which gave me a chance to learn about different cultures and perspectives. The university also offered many opportunities to get involved in extracurricular activities, which allowed me to meet new people and pursue my interests outside of academics. However, there were also some challenging aspects of studying at the University of Liverpool. One of the worst parts for me was the workload. The courses were rigorous and demanding, which often meant spending long hours in the library studying and completing assignments. It was sometimes difficult to balance coursework with other responsibilities, such as part-time work and extracurricular activities. Another challenging aspect was the cost of living. Liverpool is a vibrant city with plenty to do, but it can also be quite expensive. Accommodation, food, and transportation costs added up quickly, which was a source of stress and financial strain. Additionally, the campus itself was quite large, which made it challenging to navigate at times. As a new student, it took some time to figure out where everything was located and how to get around. This was especially difficult during the winter months when the weather was cold and rainy. In conclusion, while studying at the University of Liverpool had its challenges, overall it was a positive experience. The quality of education, diverse student body, and opportunities for extracurricular activities made it an enriching and rewarding experience. However, the workload and cost of living were sources of stress that required careful planning and management. Despite the challenges, I feel grateful for the opportunities and experiences I gained from my time at the University of Liverpool.
Great place to be

First gen student
Best part of the uni is the careers and employability department! Offering so much to students to help their development
Career studio services is the best. Guild could have more events.
Best is probably life on campus and the overall uni experience. Worst is probably Student Support; it could be improved on a little as a lot of the advice feels generalised.
In the heart of liverpool makes for the perfect student experience mix of culture, activities, and nightlife. Plenty of things to get involved in in the uni as well as the communities surrounding and endless opportunities. Can be improved by just being a bit more understanding and lenient with students hardships and personal issues that affect them
It’s alright
Liverpool is a wonderful city especially for students.
The location is ideal, close to the city centre in a safe area. Could be improved by more reliable transport from student accommodation to campus.
Love the social spaces and areas for group study, wish there was more support that wasn’t so serious - sometimes I don’t need an extension I just want some further guidance
Excellent facilities. Could do with better online access to information on how courses run (eg. prerequisite modules) for students who haven’t enrolled yet.
