Excellent uni, right mixture of fun and work. Although not a huge city the clubs are good and the union makes up for it. Leicester and Nottingham not far away.
I think loughborogh is a really good university. I felt at home really soon and everything is on the campus and so near. The sports facilities are really good and there are lots of societies to chose from.
Excellent academically and socialy. Engaging students wherever possible. It has a vast range of facilities that assist the students in their courses and degrees as well as in their extra curricular activities. Accommodation is dotted in and out of campus that cater to the every specific need of the student. With prayer facilities and provision of halal meat within the university it is evident that they care about the welfare and satisfaction of all students.
Very glad i made it to this Uni. Simply the best.... From the social side to the academic side of things, I personally rate it excellent and im sure a lot of others would do the same
Awesome university with great facilities. Best students union in the country. Great engineering facilities and an awesome campus. Great uni for job prospects as well and has lots of links with industry.
extremely great uni, the course is very interesting, with great lecturers. Their sports clubs are brilliant, and the wide range of societies is spectacular! Feels like a uni should feel, like a uni, rather than dotted all over the place.
It's just too amazing a university. All my needs and expectations fulfilled. Not just does it excel in its teaching and facilities but also the student support they give. The sports facilities is one key feature I really admire
Very friendly university. The lectures are all interesting and informative. The campus is extremely well kept and the students union is great. I'm very happy with the halls accommodation, cleaned daily and recently renovated.
One of the best universities I could have ever ended up to. I am an international student and i might say i am having the time of my life at Loughborough. I strongly suggest this uni to every undergraduate, awesome students, stuff and facilities available for anyone. Love you, Lufbra!
Loughborough university is the best decision I have ever made. Lectures and memeber of staff do a lot for all of their students. As a foundation student I have made the choice to stay in this uni next year, and do progression. It has been rated 1st in the uk for the degree I want to do. The Student union is incredible, so much is going on every week. I go out more often to the Student Union than in town. It is close, cosy, and great. I can change room and bar when ever I want to as we have more than 1 choice of each.
Amazing student life, with something on everyday of the week. You are living in a nice and friendly neighbourhood, always feeling safe. University facilities also really good, with available technology, rooms and equipment whenever needed.
Loughborough offers a diverse range of opportunities and is a great place to learn. All lecturers are approachable and knowledgable about their subjects, allowing for a well rounded education opportunity. Great place to socialise and meet new people and a very friendly atmosphere across all of the university
Great all round uni, with great facilities. Something for everyone whether that's with regards to sport, degree, societies etc. Will never got bored with the amount of things that is run either by clubs or by the union it self.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my time so far at university, I am now in my second year and have no complaints! In first year you are welcomed very well and are encouraged to meet new people. I am now in a house with friends and my course is getting better and better.
Best university I have ever been to! Fantastic night life and friendly people! Love the town and the campus great atmosphere and wonderful times had by myself. Would recommend to anyone looking for a university
amazing university. great atmosphere. from the first day you feel part of the loughborough family. easy being on campus. very fun and lots to do. i like all the sports and how there is beginners options swell.
So happy I chose loughborough. Had the best first semester ever! Freshers was so well organised and I made so many friends really quickly. The accommodation I am in is also amazing and the course I am doing has great laboratory facilities which is fantastic! So happy I chose loughborough, great uni all round.
Sports facilities simply the best, good student union night... Loughborough town is a bit boring but not much the uni can do about that. For a non Russell Group Uni the name "Loughborough Uni" carries quite a lot of prestige.
Great campus and buzz to the uni. The students union has everything you need and the buildings around campus are continually being updated. A huge choice of courses with world leading lecturers, although more lectures need to be recorded.


Fantastic campus and great student involvement in Student Union activities, from RAG and Action to dance classes. Being the top sports university in the UK, sport is a large part of the experience, reflected in everything from schedules to campus fashion. Above all, the social life is fantastic, with nights out planned for every day day of the week in the Union or at the town. There is also plenty of hall rivalry and competitive atmosphere, with the annual Sing-Off chant battle being a serious highlight of the year.
