Sort:Latest reviewsAs a first year student, I found that Uni of Liverpool has made it easy to settle in during the first few months of moving into Liverpool. The student support from peer mentors, academic advisors, and lecturers are amazing, and I've always felt like all my questions are answered, whether it may be about my degree or where to find opportunities outside my degree. As I go into my second year, this could be improved by providing more support during the practicals as I feel lost most times even with the demonstrators support. I would say that in the practical skills module, I would like to see answers being released for our module handbook each and every practical that we do.
campus is really pretty, great city, very socialable and fun, lecturers are helpful and approachable. there should be no lectures on a wednesday when sport is on
I love that our first three years are in the city unlike for other vet schools! there is so much to do here and everyone is so friendly in liverpool
Course is good and the lab facilities are really good, you do seomtimes get a a lot of deadline bunching which can be stressful
Its a great university which affords me a great experience both on and off campus. There are so many facilities which students can take advantage of. The worst aspect is the lack of clarity on where to access support sometimes.
Its a very welcoming and friendly university, super accessible and has a great atmosphere for students
I think the university is very sociable and easy to make friends with a lot of activities and events. However I think the university preach they are helpful for mental health issues however when I had reached out for help from the university after my dad passed away I received absolutely no help with my mental health or studies.
Friendly atmosphere, approachable students and staff. Close proximity to the city, plenty of societies and good links to other cities. Sometimes student support is overwhelmed with the sheer number of students and can't provide further support. Sometimes in group projects individuals are allowed to get away with contributing nothing while others pick up the slack.
Liverpool is a really great city and it's an extremely social environment, great facilities/buildings.
Supplies for my course are very expensive and I end up spending a lot of money. Could be improved by a student supplies shop with student discount.
Best aspect is how friendly and easily available everything and everyone is. Perfect place to start your independent journey. Worst aspect is having to get the bus from Greenbank, and how far the second and third years live from the university.
The best aspects of my university experience at the University of Liverpool revolve around interactive learning and accessible communication. First, seminars in classes enable real - time exchanges of ideas and insights with teachers — a format far less common in my home country. These sessions foster a dynamic learning atmosphere where curiosity thrives. Second, one - on - one offline discussions with faculty deepen my understanding of course content. Teachers’ personalized explanations clarify complex concepts that textbooks alone can’t convey. Third, email communication here is remarkably efficient: finding contact details for staff relevant to my queries is straightforward, and responses come promptly, streamlining problem - solving across academic and administrative matters. Regarding areas for improvement, while my experience is overwhelmingly positive, small tweaks could enhance it further. For example, during busy periods, wait times for certain administrative services (like course enrollment support) occasionally feel lengthy. However, this is a minor drawback compared to the institution’s many strengths. With continued investment in streamlining such processes, the University of Liverpool could solidify its reputation as a truly world - class academic home.
more support from tutors
Sydney jones library
Some buildings are really old and grubby. Some are nice and modern
- The academic side to the university is good, staff are useful and the lectures/seminars are engaging - Communication can be poor at times - The guild does not have the right priorities. Reports made against students for creepy behaviour are not handled on time and they will be unbanned. Instead the guild is pushing for bidets in library toilets. - Societies are fun but there are limited opportunities for those who don't drink, especially for the academic societies. The guild is not as willing to accept ideas for socials if it's not a pub crawl. - The push for AI is not needed.
So great and helpful and beautiful location with great history
Pre reading is too hard to access online
Campus has a great atmosphere and pretty much everything is provided, the student support is very helpful and responds quickly

Could be more sports facilities
There is a good amount of contact hours, and content delivery is varied for example using the PC teaching centre, keeping content interesting.
Not always quickest at addressing maintenance issues. Very good location, within 10 minutes walk of most university buildings.
