1,051 University of Edinburgh reviews

If you want to work in finance then its great. There are employement open days over the semester

Some lectures are recorded some are not. It also depends on how you feel about the lecturer. I have enjoyed more than others. The tutorials are compulsory and are hit and miss. I have been at some where it is silent, and others where it is a question and answer session. There is no real discussion. The university fails to address this problem. Overall there are 4 hours a week of contact learning per course (3 lectures and 1 tutorial). Which, personally, i find outrageous.

I don't use it. It seems focused on the wrong things, such as community and well being.

I haven't used any of the facilities. But there are a lot of them.

Edinburgh is very expensive. What ever you enjoy doing the city can provide. Just make sure you have plenty money.

Horrible. I have only heard from my PT once, during compulsory welcome week meeting. Feedback on essay's are obscure and not helpful. There is a writing center to help you write more academically, but hou book a slot with a specific problem to be addressed. Most queries have a cover answer which your name is pasted on, so there is no genuine connection with anyone. If you think you will need support, Edinburgh is not for you.

I think they are very good

It is fine. I am trans and they are not equipped to handle my issues outside of extensions

For the most part it is very interesting

Not bothered. It is liveable and that is all that matters

Hit and miss

Lecture notes should be released if the slides are just pictures - some of them are recorded

Definite disparity between what is offered to the Kings students and what is offered to humanities

Not enough funding for student mental health support, should be more contact with personal tutors

There are career fairs but not much time to think about the future when caught up in work

Not all lecturers are good, but the structure of language tutorials focusing in different components is good

Union facilities are good, not really in tune with representation

Sometimes there aren't enough but quality is really good

Besides the weather, it is perfect because food/ cafes are good and it is integrated into languages and beautiful

Lots of options, can find something to suit everyone, very active

Sometimes helpful but often hit-or-miss situation - mental health support not enough

Good courses advisor for school of maths

More workshops hours and fewer lectures would be useful

Organised

Beautiful city and good student nightlife

Good variety

Not enough for mental health

Get lots of emails about opportunities and job fairs

Lectures are normally very good but only 4 contact hours a week is bad

Very good gym, library could be bigger

Nice size city, not too big

Seem fairly accessible but not personally that involved in them

Very much depends on the school and also PT
