University of Bristol Reviews

Lovely university full of great people. The students Union is probably the biggest let down with its lack of support to societies. The actual students Union building is great The facilities are good at the uni just all a bit old.

The teacher is very bad and they can’t teach gcse maths to a 15 year old

Nice uni but bad value for money and way to many private school snobs...

Loved my time at Bristol University. Great courses, research led, amazing city to explore. The students union has loads to do after a day at University, with student and independent events. Excellent nightlife too!

Good vibes around the uni, Bristol as a city is really good

Decent not much interaction from SU

Bristol is one of the best cities to live in as well as one of the most highly-regarded universities in the country. I feel very privileged to be able to spend 3 years living here and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. There is a perfect balance here, a best-of-all-worlds.

Nice modern libraries and gym facilities

Best uni in the UK you have everything you could ask for!

Great city and a great uni... just wish there weren't as many hills.

Dreadful place. Institutional dishonesty; useless disability support. self-serving staff. Stay away from this place. If you complain, you'll be on the end of institutional lying and bullying. You need to be mentally strong if you have a problem here as nobody will help you.

I don't spend much time at the SU but the Balloon Bar has amazing food and the Anson Rooms have a lot going on. There's a really wide range of socities so you'll definitely find something you're interested in.

There is no society that doesn't charge a fee entry, in terms of performance, I'm not sure why it's so highly ranked, some lecturers have no idea what they speak about, in terms of internet connection, it is one of the best I have ever had.

The city of Bristol is far better than the actual university itself. Some halls are great whilst others are awful, but most are very overpriced. The SU here is very quiet and doesnt seem to do much

not the best experience; expected more from a world class uni

so good, so many admin jobs, love em

Wifi only good in certain areas, in areas such as the Hawthorns it is slow and cuts out randomly

Support lacking and wouldn't recommend for either student experience or teaching.

Bristol is a great uni for the arts and humanities (what I do ) - the extra curricular side is immense - from sci- fi soc to your classic drama societies and a wide array of music societies - there is literally something for everyone to get involved with. my first year I wasn't a massive fan of my accommodation (Churchill hall) but I think its partly the luck of the draw - I just had to find my friends through my subject and extra -curriculars. Bristol is a brilliant place to live with about 40 different things going on at once (at least lol) - just remember YOU CAN'T DO EVERYTHING :)

Bristol is a great uni to go to

A truly inspirational and excellent university! It has opened so many doors for my future development!

Great fun, good course, ok accommodation

Amazing student union and building, so much going on- they also have gender neutral toilets which I think is really cool. The wifi (eduroam) is everywhere in places you can't even imagine.

lovely place, although a bit hipstery

Really great experience here thus far.

Only started here this year and love it, good atmosphere and friendly people. Accommodation is fine and the staff were welcoming.

Such an amazing uni in such an amazing city, there's always something on for anyone.

Student union has good drinks deals although it is a bit far away from my accommodation

Sick place, great social scene and sets you up fairly well in life. Best place to spend 3 years

The best course for computer science and electronics. Great labs, teamwork projects and events. Vibrant city, loads of things to do and active societies.

Social aspect is absolutely fantastic, music scene is immense, best place to be

Really good uni for facilities and courses. Not great that the student union was closed for half of my time at the uni and it's a bit far away. Because it's not campus based there arent any shops but all the big departments have cafes.

Not anywhere near enough money spend on the Arts or Social Science faculties.

Exciting and fun at first. Some problems with slow admin.

One of the best universities for Mechanical Engineering, Law and Psychology . Get in there and you're fun is guaranteed.

Total lack of academic support, but great academic reputation - so good degrees are harder to get than they need to be but well worth it. Student Union has the campaigning passion of a donkey.

Amazing city, great variety of people, had the best craziest time. Also really passionate lecturers
