The education and lecturers really are top class and have a vast bredth of knowledge. However, the student experience and nightlife leaves a lot to be desired. Definitely the place to get upur head down and get a good degree.
The best part about my university is the freedom I feel whenever I go there. Lectures/seminars are evenly spaced out with plenty of time in between to do extra work or relax. The staff are also really nice and are almost always available to help with whatever questions someone may have. The worst part about my university is that some of the facilities, specifically in the SU could do with some renovations.
It is hard for me to comment fully as I comute to uni so I'm not on campus much, when I am on campus the parking can be a bit of a nightmare, as there are often times when I can not get a space if starting late and have to drive around the campus multiple times to find a space.
Lots of variety for food Chancellors is greatfor studying The biggest negative for me is parking, I feel there should be more parking areas as many times its too busy to park. The library is quite outdated and could do with a bit of a revamp to be more modern.
Green, spacious campus with some great modern facilities. Parts of the university are dated and Stoke isn't a thriving city for Student life.
Lots of social events and academic support and helpful staff
The student life is good with a range of societies and events which are affordable and fun however this is not always the case.
helpful staff, lots on campus.
Best, it's a large campus university with plenty of green space and whilst it got about 12k students it feels like a smaller jni cause of the space, the night life is pretty limited, there's events held in SU but they end up with only around 10-15 students each time by the end of semester.



In my honest opinion, I think that Keele University is by far one of the best Universities to study at. I’ve been to see many other universities before coming to Keele and none of them gave a friendly community feeling like Keele did. Also, everything is on campus such as shops, cafes, pharmacy and much more which saves so much time in travelling to get any essentials you might need and is helpful especially for those that stay on campus accommodation, It is super convenient to have everything you might need at your doorstep. The lecturers are always willing to give you a helping hand if you might need extra support or anything course/work related. Keele is just an amazing place to study at overall and there isn’t a single negative thing I can think of to even comment upon. If anyone is thinking of coming to Keele to study then I’d say take the leap of faith just like I did and you’ll see for yourself what an incredible place it is.
A good university and, in my regard, the best in Staffordshire. It is a very large campus. It provides excellent student support and very good student facilities. Excellent learning resources are provided for each course. The extensive Library in the heart of campus provides both excellent physical and online material, including private and group study space. There are Frequent events and parties in the main buildings and each residence hall has its specific events. Accommodations are secure. Two bus routes are going through the campus. Keele GP is unfortunately at the edge of the university's campus. The University has also recently erected several new buildings purposed for specific courses. The campus's location is unique compared to other universities in the UK, located in the middle of a forest, next to a farm and a serene small village. The University hosts a beautiful mansion house with a garden and a clock house, with a good view of the countryside near the M6. There is a large area dedicated for sporting activities and an observatory. The main negatives that I can identify are that: the only store chain is the Co-op and the university is situated between two hills, on a hill, 2 miles away from Newcastle City centre, so any journeys without a car or commuting by bus are difficult.
Great having guys from different continent and countries hence the diverse cultures. Alot of resources at school which impact alot on the daily learning . Friendly staff who offer alot of help to new students and also a nice welcome from the older students . Alot of games and sport to keep one physically fit and entertainment center to provide a relaxing time out from studies. A big chapel, mosque for those with divine faith. I really like the experience
keele not only has a beutifull location for studying it also has staff that actually care about you and your education. and are very willing to support you to achive your goals
It is really calm it helps you focus. The only thing is that there’s no much social stuff to do
I love that it's surrounded by nature and there is a good amount of people for student help
The campus is a lovely place to stay and really relaxing but the nightlife and student moral is not the best.
A very welcoming environment and great staff and students. Coming from a city it was so different with the noise levels and night lifr at the SU.
