Also, you may lose some chances to join different activities. The accommodation is excellent with new refurbishment although the price is relatively high.
I like the learning zone! They got the best projector! We have our group discussions there! Nice place~ as for food, I like the chicken bake in greggs, which is delicious and convenient. I don’t have enough time for cooking, so I eat on campus canteen. Lancaster is a good University. I got many friends to study with, which helps me a lot.
I love studying at learning zone. I can even borrow lap tops with my student card there. It’s really convenient. But sometimes, while, I mean always, it's been so noisy in the learning zone... maybe it is a place for group working. Therefore, when I need a quiet environment, I move to the library.
My roommates are great! One of them is a good chafe, who cooks for us usually~ The party every week in the dorm is my favorite. And my room is nice, although kind of small... but there’s a long desk in my room, I work very efficiently on that big desk.
During leisure times, there are variety ways for social. You can enjoy your time at Sugar house. I go to bar with my friends every night. I feel young there. Lancaster is one of the safest universities at UK. If you are an international student, this may be the most important issue for studying abroad, isn’t it?
Compared to the number of people here, the library seems not big enough. But it has nice computers! This must have spent lots of money. I do appreciate that the librarians can always give me help. As for lectures, I am glad we have such a big screen and a projector so good.
Speaking of dormitory, it's too far away from the lecture hall... I have to walk 15 minutes every day for lectures. However, our lectures are fabulous! All of the students enjoy them. I learn a lot from professor Wu, who is a real expert. Some of our lecturer not only teach at university, but also have a job in financial institutions at the same time. The knowledge they provide is very close to the real economic world nowadays.
I love my dorm! It's excellent! I feel at home here. People are really friendly. I enjoy talking to the people living in the apartment. As for food, there are some restaurants on campus. For example, Sultan is not bad although not cheap. You can also go to Pizzata, the Szechuan pizza is not bad; you got to give it a try.
good people, and listen carefully to lecture and involve actively into seminar, which will be very helpful. however, some lecturers and tutors would not like to pay too much attention on students questions and requirement.
good campus lfe, I really happy to study and live in here. but I have some criticism about our course and module, some lecturers and tutors don't like to spend any extra personal time to reply or answer email, but there is also too little office time available.
Lancaster has very interesting course and modules, there is also lots of great university facilities and wide range of clubs/societies. and , living off campus, in actual, is also a great experience.
take full opportunities and make good friends here. clubs or societies will be good place for everyone to meet some totally different and interesting people. especially the bars, which have distinguish characteristics in different colleges, enjoy it
the collegiate system is brilliant and the students here create a perfectly friendly atmosphere. but the course setting in here has disadvantage that some lecturers ad tutors are quite unhelpful to students.
here has a rather good reputation and green environment. buildings has a good accessibility especially the library
I enjoy here as everything can be got conveniently within campus and there are so many good facilities. however, some buildings need refurbishment, for example, part of library.
I love the atmosphere here, and enjoy the way studying. Most of lectures and tutors are so friendly and brilliant to give support. However, most toilets are so poor on campus and the flats opened to second-year or third year students are to few.
I was provided the support and help from student service, and although the course is not so easy but it is really useful and give lots of professional ideas. The construction of Engineering building is too noisy, as it is so closed to management school.
I feel a strong freedom feeling here and people here I met are really nice. And, for accommodation, I really enjoy that share kitchen with other students, because I really met some good people, and have a chance to sit with friends together and talk to each other as it is big enough.
I get excellent experience in here and exercise my independent competence. But I think the bars should have increasing interesting events which should be more various and international.

I enjoy some of facilities in this university. For example, the sports centre here is really new and amazing as well as the learning zone which is a open place for study, presentation preparation and discussion. However, students need to get used to the lack of social activities happen here. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the uni life here.
