Good
As the university is located in a town instead of a city, the location guarantees a high level of peacefulness and safety, ensuring that students are placed in an environment where they are able to study without a lot of worries. The student union is also very welcoming and contains an atmosphere where no one feels unsafe or uncomfortable; it is an area where students can do what they want to their pleasure, whether it be studying, socialising, or eating. The campus vibe and facilities are also good as well, with some buildings looking modernised, but it does seem a little outdated and it would help if the university modernised or refurbished some of the buildings. Additionally, the vibe of the campus overall is very sound as well, but I personally think that with a bit more entertainment in the university more people from outside will be attracted to what the university has to offer. For example, maybe a cultural-specific area which can not only expand the diversity of the university, but also allow students who have a hard time adapting to life in Loughborough to feel at home, welcomed, and appreciated. As for student support, the support they provide is great and I personally have benefited from it. If they can expand to collaborate with other mediums of support like Betterhelp, it will allow the system to become more flexible and cater to more people of different backgrounds. Finally, student life has been a largely positive experience for me, but I think the biggest improvement has to lie on the catering for students. I have noticed that catering has been a mixed experience for many students, especially with the choices that are provided. Provided that the university is eco-friendly and prioritises health of its students, maybe a touch of more new, fresh, and health menus can turn the students’ opinion of the catering system towards the positive side. Another thing that would like to mention is increased tolerance of student behaviour in the town. Provided that the university is meant as a safe space for international students like me, we really appreciate it when we can walk outside and socialise without worrying about other things. Although actions have been taken for student behaviour control (signs outside the town warning of anti-social behaviour), it may be helpful for the university to be more strict on repeat excessive troublemakers. Otherwise, my experience at the university has been wonderful and I hope that with these changes, students that are recommended to study at this university will have the best experiences and the opportunities maximised to achieve their potential.
Loughborough has a real sense of community within the uni. They have made a great support network of peers and staff so you know where to go if you have any trouble. Everyone’s nice, there are great facilities and the union puts on great events

.
The campus facilities are absolutely perfect l, has a great vibe to it.
The walk to school
Lots of study spaces
The campus is incredible and had everything that you could ever need on it. All I would say is adding more study spaces and computers around campus as it gets very busy!
Love uni life and living with my friends. Don’t like how little there is to do in the city and how you can’t be a beginner at most sports
