Sort:Latest reviewsI studied before in Uk, but I can say that nothing can compare to Durham Uni. It is the best University so far and has got a lot of talents and smart people inside. If you like history come and take a look at what Durham has got.
Having done most of my extra-curicular activities in College Durham than in the University. I'm not entirely sure I could comment on most of them, but from friends' hear they are good. Everything else is fantastic!
I love durham uni but before you go there think better which uni suits you . This Uni will make you study hard and be independent. If you love this kind of life you can choose Durham
Nothing is better than my uni. It is lovely and welcoming and the arhitecture is very attractive as well. About study life it is very stressful to be honest but nobody died doing it
The University hasn’t got many facilities and the systems are very bad. Also the staff is way too proud of itself and doesn't help other people that much. Studying is hard. But city life is great
Durham is a great and friendly university and very supportive also. The Uni facilities should be greater but they are promissing tho'. We have many bars and clubs and socities which make us enjoy our free time to maximum! The lecturers are also very friendly and with experience.
Not enough contact rime. We should have better sports facilities and also the school is too old.We have some modern buildings but the rest of them are too old and they look ugly
This University gave me the chance to discover that all over the world you can find amazing people and learn how to treat eachother as equal. For my future career I do not know what it will be like but I hope it will be okay.
Uni is a lovely place and the facilities are also very good. Small city but very lovely. The job prospects is also very good and eye candy is promissing!
It’s a small city, it’s comfortable, its really nice and everything is within walking distance. I love Durham University and I will recomand it.
For me, the university of Durham is outstanding! It is so great and the people here are wonderful. If you like to come here put this uni on the top of your list and do not hesitate. It is very cool to study here
International students receive a warm welcome.We are generally very well cared for by university departments and student's Union. For foreigners it is of great success to study at the University of Durham and it feels very great
Durham Uni is excellent uni. A degree from Durham is very much respected and valued by potential employers. Huge number and variety of activities/societies to be involved in.
The University has always been helpful if I've had problems, there is good supper available. Durham is a very good city to live in, it's very safe and ya can get everywhere quickly. There's lots of everything and a good range of activities.
Durham is a beautiful experience from the moment you arrive on the outskirts and see the awesome cathedral and castle towering over the countryside. It is a nice place, having wonderful people and tutors.
I want to do international business and I think it offers a setting where they bring students from everywhere in the world and there’s so much diversity. Durham University is the best place to study!
If you look for an international Uni, this is the right place to choose. You will meet a lot of new people and learn a lot of different cultures. For this, the university has a plus in my eyes.
I am not sure if Durham is the right university for everyone as it has got its own style; The tutors are not bad but they expect you to study a lot and the exams are not that easy. Until now people who came here are good students so my advice for everyone is to come here if they want to be assets.
Far too much work compared to other courses.Even so, college life is excellent and night life even better. The Uni doesn't have many facilities as in other unis but is still great
4.2
I love the atmosphere of the university because it’s very personal. It’s not the typical university life; classes are small, people know you and know quite a lot about you and focus on your personal skills.
