Living on such a big Campus is a once in a lifetime experience. There’s literally everything here. Even a night club. Living in the upper floors of the south towers is something though. I kinda love it but there are also a lot of issues (with running water eg.)

I love how invested the lecturers are. You have to put in consistent work though.

So…. I love the social aspects of living at the south towers. You always meet wonderful people and having your friends live in the same building is very cool. But there are a lot of issues with running water (the tabs tend to explode, not have running water for like 2 mins etc). And sometimes the bathrooms and kitchen get very dirty (16 people per flat). The cleaning staff is very friendly though and it is a luxury to have them.

The University of Essex is a brilliant place to study. The staff are very friendly and are always open to any improvements or adjustments you ask of them to help ensure your educational experience is the best it can be. Socially there’s always something going on with the uni’s amazing Student Union which makes sure to keep you apprised of all upcoming events. As well as the SU the many societies helps to create a welcoming and friendly environment all across campus. While the campus club Sub Zero is not the best, the student bar has a nice atmosphere.

I like the facilities it provides for me to access my work around university with the library and the campus has a great feel which makes it comfortable. It could be improved by having more food store options on campus.

The study areas are really well suited for groups or individual work. Online facilities are really good with the option to find library books, access readings and course material. Cheap meals on campus with the meal of the day, cheap coffee options and cheap drinks at the bar. The bad side is the events that are put on, the nightclub sub-zero is rarely packed and music is often bad. Can be a trouble to get hold of personal tutors somtimes as in year 2 i never met mine or received any emails.

There are so many support available for both home and international students as well as events to help you meet new people and feel more welcomed. However, the accommodation costs are too pricey

The location of the University of Essex is really a bummer. It’s on the outskirts of Colchester and makes it hard to travel into, as an international student who is traveling very far. The student life and union give a good try at providing fun experiences for students. The look of the campus is ok, nothing special. The facilities are very nice though, they provide a lot.
