Sort:Latest reviewsBest parts: lots of societies, lots of opportunities for meeting and befriending people, committed staff (both to academic matters and student needs), peaceful co-existence of a various diverse groups of students, beautiful campus! Worst parts: Somewhat remote from other interesting places
Best: plenty of facilities on campus Worst: student support could be made more accessible
There are lots of good places on campus to study or meet friends. I like the collaborative study places in the library because I can meet friends there and study together. Because of its location it is really close to cities like Birmingham or Coventry which is good for days out. I also like how there are lots of cafes and sober socials around the area. Sometimes sports can be difficult to do due to timetabling, meaning I can’t do the sports I’d like to do as I cannot make the trainings.
- great lecturers - facilities are very nice - rootes supermarket is too expensive!!
I really like the course I’m doing and warwick are one of the only unis who do it. They have great facilities apart from those to do with music. The options for study abroad are really good too. Unfortunately it’s a bit disconnected from any real city due to it being a campus uni and it can be hard to access by train from the north east. Nightlife isn’t as great as some other unis but the SU is good
I think honestly the university is great!
Making more opportunities for students who chose to commute! Most societies have late evening events which make it difficult for commuters go attend.
Atmosphere and people are really nice.
Great university, friendly people.
Good course + a very good range of societies and facilities.
Meeting new people and making many friends is fun. Learning new things from different perspectives is also very interesting.
The location is good as it’s near Leamington Spa, Coventry, Kenilworth and Birmingham. However, there are always roadworks and bus cancellations so you can never travel around the area reliably and everyone is always late to lectures. There is student support available but Warwick is notorious for a bad culture surrounding sexual harassment. As an institution, they are more focused on maintaining their reputation than helping survivors get justice. However, individual members of staff are supportive, especially within the Philosophy department where I am.
The best aspects have been the facilities available to study and the welcoming environment. The worst aspect is the circling on Wednesday.
Its a great place to study because of its environment and how supportive the administration system is. Not to mention all the facilities are top tier and lots of accessible places for everyone including disabled and elderly. The drawbacks is that there are so little opportunity for students to work inside the uni itself
The best part of university has been the intellectual challenge and the chance to explore my passion for mathematics and finance through MORSE. I’ve enjoyed collaborating with diverse peers and expanding my perspective. The toughest part has been managing the workload during intense periods, but it’s helped me build resilience and strong time-management skil
I like the campus feel Warwick provides, even though it may not look as old and aesthetically pleasing as places like Durham or Oxbridge. Campus feels really safe and I like that. Personally, being a psychology student we are told we are studying a science, yet are based in the humanities building and not given a reading week despite this and all the essential reading we are set. I think all subjects should have a reading week because they’re useful to everyone, not just the humanities and arts students.
Environment is great, people are friendly and it has a lot of musical activity going on which is really important to me However, they tend to put a lot of essay deadlines on the same day
it has a great campus and leamington where I live is so lovely. I wish the buses would be better coming from leam to campus. I also wish it was more creative. I love fashion and art and i feel like there aren’t enough resources to express myself
The university campus feels really safe, including late at night, and I’m always happy to be there. My course and department are extremely professional and don’t cause any stress in any way besides the expected workload.

It’s a great place because of the overall vibe / campus / course, most importantly because Jesus is here with me! I enjoy the freedom of being able to manage more of my time (since I don’t have many contact hours as an English student) and get involved in things that I’m interested in as well as get to know of people from lots of different interesting backgrounds. The course is very enjoyable as well - though definitely a challenging step-up from A Levels, in terms of both the content (eg. Middle English and critical theories which I hadn’t been familiar with before uni) and workload (SO much reading every week!), I find it very engaging and innovative overall which is really what made me apply for this course in the first place, and I’m very grateful that it hasn’t been disappointing. For example we get to look at poetry that consists of merely all alphabets in black apart from C, E, and H in a white background and talked about the boundaries of what poetry really is; and when studying The Odyssey, our seminar tutor asked us to optionally write a mock epic of 20 lines about our journey from the seminar back home to really get us thinking about how you can make a seemingly short journey epic. Everyone here is also very passionate about their subject and that’s just really encouraging for me because it sparks the passion in me as well and really motivates me to keep going and appreciate the subject more! I also love that it is a campus uni - you get to have everything in one place which is very convenient, and it’s definitely a lot safer than being in a city uni. Also, there are evangelism stalls for the Christian Union every week on campus, which I suppose wouldn’t be as practical if it was a city uni. Can’t really think about the worst thing about it. I suppose the workload is tough and I found making friends difficult at the beginning especially.
Love that it’s slightly far away from central campus, quiet, big rooms, just got refurbished!
