So supportive with lovely people
The campus feels really lively and it is close to the city centre so it makes it easy to travel in. The study facilities are acccessible to disabled students. But, the student support could be better as quite often you do have to fight for support.
improve the guild by having more free venue rooms ( like the storage rooms in the basement) Jet wash and paint some of the building, they look dirty and just need some jet washing to remove mould and grime like CTH, EEE and Sherrington
Best: Campus Location Worst: Library doing exam periods
Nice people
Not really any comments other than focus more on ensuring the lecturers put in time for their lecture teachings
Very good staff and facilities, lots of help available if needed. Lots of societies and ways to make friends and opportunities to take part in. Could improve by maybe putting in more study spaces that aren't in the library for a change of scene, and trying to space out exams/ assignments a little more to be less overwhelming
It’s a very nice university with, great support and excellent opportunities. Deserves its renowned red brick status. Worst part is the west coast weather, very wet constantly:(
The city itself is an amazing place to live and study. The university has great facilities for everything and lots of places to socialise, study, and do both at the same time. It is easy to feel down at university and it is hard to find where you can find emotional support and financial support. although this is available, it isn’t clearly labelled on the website so it can be difficult to find.
Security is great.
It is a great, welcoming city with an amazing research-intensive university enabling me to gain a vast understanding of my subject area
The best part of my uni experience at Liverpool was the people and the atmosphere. I met good friends, and the lecturers were supportive, which made studying computer science feel enjoyable. The worst part was the beginning. As an international student, everything felt new and a bit overwhelming, and it took me some time to adapt. But once I settled in, things became much easier.
- The worst aspect is the inconsistency in teaching practices/advice given (etc) in terms of what information professors think they are allowed to say/not-say. This means some students have an unfair advantage over others, more information is shared/projects are looked out, and advice is given even if they're not meant to. - The best aspect is the social life + town, its a great city and I love the student area. Smithdown isn't pretty, but everyone is right next to eachother, and the walk to uni allows for more socialising/your steps in.
Many areas to study with lovely libraries
I really enjoy Liverpool life however accessing mental health support can be difficult and confusing sometimes
amazing doesn’t need improvement


support is awesome, but too far away from my home
too hard but have lots of support
