Hi
The SU is amazing and there are lots of opportunities that the uni encourage.
lovely
My flatmates are some of the best experiences
it’s warm community , very welcoming . i take a hard course so lots of lectures however lectures are very helpful
Love uni
Great student community! Student support could be better in the department
Best- lots of things to do- like paint and sip for example, lots going on in the union. Good location. Worst- 9AM lectures and loads of lectures after each other- can’t focus, get too drained/tired.
I hate the toilets in the foundry.
I like that all the buildings are very close to eachother and in very convenient places in the city
I absolute good Sheffield, they’re really good at supporting my disabilities and I love that it’s a green campus
The University of Sheffield is a great place to study. I think the experience for students here is very welcoming and accomodating, and the city is very affordable, quite vibrant and friendly. There are a wide range of courses, the students union is exceptional and the facilities such as the libraries are very nice. I think the university does a good job of catering to the needs of different students, for example people of different faiths, LGBTQ and international students. I believe the University could create a less convuluted system of accessing support. I think some improvements have been made in this, but sometimes it is difficult to find relevant support on their website.
The environment is very inviting and my lecturers are some of the best around. The worst aspect so far is 9am classes
Great student union with lots of opportunities to meet people and try new things. Great city to be a student in. Sports facilities could be improved. More library spaces
I love the friends that i have made and the facilities but i don’t like the hills or the walk from my accommodation.


People are all very friendly and there is good support in place
It is all suitable for my course
Wi-Fi is very slow and bad signal, maintainence is slow
