Great uni, great campus, good people. Good location
More opportunities for trips abroad would be great!
Best is the social side and amount of students Worst is the amount of work and deadlines
No one goes to the student union club compared to other university student union clubs, very disappointing student union, but Accom social life amazing
18-24 years
I think the student support definitely needs to be improved, as does the hiring process for lecturers—most of them should not be lecturers in my opinion. As for positives, I like the facilities we have on campus, as well as the look and feel of the surrounding areas
Best - societies - loads of societies to join and find which little niche you fit into, helped me make most of my friends here Worst - accommodation - the uni halls accommodation is overpriced and under in quality, even the best ones have mould, mice and other problems and Oak House is famously terrible
I love how many activities we have! It’s always fun to spend time in the union
I love the students union, but coffees expensive
Best - Manchester as a city Worse - expensive food on campus
Best: lecture engaging
Many study spaces for both independent and group study with comfort
more student support in lectures


Great city with lots of students, so it’s a great environment
Best - support and career advice Worst - jurisprudence
