Best underdog university. Not many people talk about Bath because most people think it doesn’t have much social life and it’s not a Russel group uni but it’s all lies honestly. Best decision I ever made!

Campus life is great, lots of socials are organized and you get to meet a lot of new people
Everything a university should be
Full of dull sports students and privately-educated home-counties "lads" and identikit blonde girls. Far out of town with an appalling bus route and limited facilities on campus. Run by a VC on close to £400k a year who doesn't care about students - increases in the number of freshers each year means students are now sharing what used to be single rooms, and cohorts are being split in two as the whole class wouldn't fit in any of the lecture halls. Study space is not being increased in line with student numbers and management doesn't seem to care. Good for getting a job due to the emphasis on placements but not much else.
Can't complain about anything apart from the shortage of space, Bath is amazing!
Really friendly, East environment, great accomodation and lectures aren't bad either.
I'm only a fresher at the university, but my short time there has not been a disappointment. Everything is top notch except the WiFi, which can be rather intermittent.
It's a shame that I couldn't do my undergraduate at this university. It is by far the best university experience I have had and I am glad that I have chosen to do my postgraduate course at Bath. I can only recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the proper university life.
really amazing campus and not far from the beautiful city of bath with a million more things to do! Not too clubby just the right amount and Bristol only ten minutes away if you want a bigger night out!
Everything is awesome! Specially a big up to freshers week just amazing!
Great variety of clubs to join and has a very friendly campus atmosphere.
I really love being here. The course is amazing and everyone is really supportive. Coming here was an excellent decision!
It is a great University and campus. I truly enjoy my time here!
So many things to get involved in, offers you so many opportunities
Uni of Bath is perfectly located in a beautiful city, with a campus that provides everything you could possibly need. The accommodation is just a short walk to lectures, and it's very easy to get all your flatmates together for a night out!
Halls are very good quality, newly refurbished, although have had to call maintenance a few times. Campus is fantastic, lots of opportunities in sports, societies etc. Wifi is average - can play up at times.
WiFi is patchy in halls but around campus the Cloud is fine
The university especially the students union is very much trying to be in our best interests. The societies are all very inclusive (from my and my friends experiences) and there is a large range of them for all different interests
I really like the fact that there are so many sports clubs and societies, so there is always something that will fits you. I think the facilities are great, for example the eat places, SU, tennis field and the swimming pool.
The University gives all the best to make sure that we feel good here and that we build the best future organizing fairs, encouraging societies to develop and investing a lot in facilities!
The facilities are all very good and there is pretty much everything you could want on campus, although the campus supermarket is a bit overpriced, so your better to get a supermarket delivery to your accommodation. Nights out at the SU are great and there are so many clubs and societies that there is something for everyone. The uni wifi is pretty good, but it stops working randomly at some points, but most importantly the Yikyak game is on point!
Most of the campus is newly built, some of the buildings on the Parade should be completely renewed though.
I've grown more fond of the university the longer I've been here. I didn't realise how much there would be to do here until I got here - Freshers week was packed with stuff. After that things seemed to quiet down until now (3rd week), so many societies to join and sports to take part in. Already have a job on campus and am part of a volunteer group, as well as 3-4 socities, I no longer have much time to myself (as I love being busy) between that and study. The buildings aren't the most attractive thing (the main lecture building was almost voted Britains ugliest new building) but they all serve their purpose well. Things are tightly packed in the campus so everything is always 5 minutes away (except the Medical Centre which is a bit of a trek). There are so many different things here run by the SU and the university in general, from academic skills services to volunteer opportunities and a club for nights on campus.
Campus is really nice and the student union is massive. You can get strong wifi all over campus. There are huge range of sports, with a more limited range of societies. Nights out on campus are a big thing and also cheap, and happen on a Saturday night so you can actually recover the day after.
University of Bath is a campus university with a very 'homely' feeling environment. It is an average sized campus however it is getting bigger and newer every year with new investments and constructions. There are so many societies to choose from that you feel like you have to opt something out so that you can have time to study too! I am currently in 5 societies which I really enjoy being a part of; finding and making like-minded friends is much easier! The Foreign Languages Centre offer many languages that you can choose as a 6-credit (as a part of your degree and diploma) or 3-credit (as an extra near your degree and diploma). I have just started taking 3-credit Spanish lessons and am really fascinated to learn a third language. Students Union is really active in the university and are doing their best to give us a well-rounded university life. They are open to any new ideas that may come from all university students!
Everything you need is right on campus. Students union always has things going on.
A university which caters to everyone and provides opportunities for everyone to experience all that the university has to offer.
Wifi is a bit patchy but uni is just incredible - the sports facilities are a dream!
All facilities on campus are to an extremely high level. The STV is particularly amazing, all brand new sports facilities to match the high level of sports played at Bath. There are so many clubs and societies - there is something for everyone.
Amazing uni! Recommend to anyone. It's in a lovely historic city with gorgeous walks nearby. the SU do so much for Fresher's week too that everyone feels included
Really good sports and science facilities on campus and a lot of societies and opportunities
Great freshers week, good clubs in town for later in the year. It's a very social university and there are loads of clubs to join. It's very sporty so if you like sport you'll like Bath.
Fantastic all inclusive campus with a plethora of activities.
Overall an excellent university. Quality teaching and plenty of superb sports facilities.
Absolutely amazing, best uni in the country
Fantastic uni with healthy balance of activities education and night life, and a great career service.
Friendly feel about campus, amazing city that's not too big (so easy to navigate) - fantastic uni
Love the campus, quality of teaching is very high, opportunities are available everywhere
Great uni which offers many sports, societies and opportunities
I can't fault the university other than the unreliable eduroam connection, multiple power cuts my accommodation had this year and lift breaking several times.
There is no place better to spend your degree then at bath with job prospects being excellent it makes getting a job after a lot easier.
I absolutely love studying here. The campus is convenient and modernising rapidly and I the town has a unique friendly feel; it's homely.
Best time of my life, so glad I made the decision to home here, haven't regreted a single thing.
I could not ask for a better university! There is so much to offer and all is very good quality
I'd always loved school holidays until university, now I dread them.
I've had a great time so far at bath.
Most courses offer the opportunity to go on a half or year long work placement, which is invaluable at making you stand out when it comes to finding graduate jobs. It's a brilliant campus university, which means it's got a real community feel, plus it's located in Bath - literally the most beautiful city in the country!
Great all round uni. The city is great - it's got everything you could possibly want - shops, bars, pubs, salons, the spa, swimming pools, parks, gyms... I could go on! The lecturers are great and so friendly. the uni has a lovely atmosphere and is the perfect size!
People think our campus is too small. I think the word they are looking for is compact, convenient, commutable. Takes no time at all to visit friends, can get to lectures on time easily and the student union is the heart of the campus. CONVENIENT. Also the woods near the golf course is BRILLIANT for a quick escape, town is walkable, and buses aren't too bad from campus. The number of societies, the close knit feel, the friendly atmosphere of actual true friends! From sports to arts to educational to charity, there's a society for all. Students union has good food. Fresh express nice lil shop. Places to sit down. Perf. THEY HELPED ME WITH CAREER STUFF PLENTY. Always have time for meetings. Even on the day, useful advice. Please fix eduoroam (keeps breaking the stupid wifi)
Love my house. But facilities could be improved
