lecture content is good lecturers have little time to offer extra support but try their best to do so content can rely heavily on reading and access to reading is not always possible

I love that the campus is located around the nature and it’s like a small town! The transportation could be improved to town, and perhaps a little bit cheaper.

I love the campus and the people, it's a nice community. I'm not pleased with my department and course, I feel we are being treated unfairly in comparison to others. Late or no feedback, not very understanding in terms of late submissions or extensions, no academic help on top of that from lecturers. The labs are structured badly, half of the GLAs don't know the subject they are supposed to be teaching or there is no GLAs but hundreds of students, so many questions get left unanswered.

Overrall, I would’ve preferred to go somewhere else but its too late to think about that. Accommodation choices are so limited and for a university city it is very old fashioned. Streetlights turn off at 10 which is really unsafe. There is no uber so you have to spend money on expensive dab fares when buses stop running and sometimes there is no cabs ! Occasional racist public but that is everywhere in the UK. But I guess campus experience is nice they have a good amount of amenities and events and teaching was okay before it was made online, now lectures are just lazy and only care about assignments being handed in.

I am so disappointed in my experience that I really want people to not come here and waste their money and time and regret eventually on this campus. I could not say this enough. I am EXTREMELY disappointed with my experience here as an international student. !! If you are in the process of looking to apply for a University, and if you are reading this, I want to make very sure that you DON'T choose this University. I do not wish to see anyone suffer the same decision WE did.

Amazing, my first year has been great with so many new experiences and new faces. I have never felt out of place, just had to seek discomfort and take the leap into new things, I don't regret any of it!

The University of Essex is an amazing platform for learning and the Students Union strives to provide numerous experiences for all types of people. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at the University so far and will definitely recommend it to any prospective students

Great environment, loads of fun and opportunities! Haven't given 5 stars because there could be slight changes done! I need to write 160 characters for this, and I have no idea what count I am on, so GO ESSEX BLADES!

Wouldn't have missed it for the world! I came here initially as it was close to London - wanted to try something far away from home but still decent. For my subject it's really good for research and you get to meet a few truly amazing friends in the few years here. The SU's societies are amazing too.
