University of Bristol Reviews

I am satisfied with everything.

good facilities! and friendly staff

The University is very strong in teaching and research.

Actually, due to covid-19, most of my courses are delivered via the internet. I just went to the campus several times. So the review may not be very precise.

U won't regret coming bristol is a simple way to put it

I don't really have an outlook about my university because I have not been there because all my classes for the moment are online.

3Q very much！！！！！！！！！

My dream school and I am happy to be a part of it. Tutors are nice and helpful.

It's one of the best university in UK. The teaching staffs are well experienced and kind enough to make you feel welcome. I really enjoy their teaching and interaction with students.

Great university with top class features.

good study experience and beautiful campus

The faculty is a bit laid-back and just give people the chance to discuss everything.

Taking online courses so know little about campus.

Only been here a short time but everything has been great so far

There really isn't a better university in my, slightly biased, opinion!

My experience was rubbish at UoB. In terms of academic achievement, I could have done much better. The way they mark coursework is vey unfair, which has contributed in my performance, and as a result, my wellbeing. Not all the staff are helpful; I could barely get advises, I find it very hard to references for job/post graduate applications. I have seen quite intense conservative assertion from my personal tutor, which put me off asking for help at all. But, it potentially can be a good uni tbh, mainly cause the beautiful city of Bristol.

Absolutely love the uni so far, lecturers are so helpful, I don't think my experience was anything which I expected (Covid) but the uni are handling it the best they can. The city is so charming, I felt at home almost immediately.

this is a very nice place to stay, 24 hours reception in 7 days a week, fully equipped shared kitchen, individual room and restroom, a great back yard, very satisfying social space.

UoB is truly a great place to study. The city is very much student oriented, very safe and very active, there's lots of opportunities to have fun all around the place. The course I'm taking has been super interesting, and the quality of the teaching is very high. There's a lot of societies around! Careers service is one of the best around the UK.

I've loved my experience at the University of Bristol. I've had inspiring and interesting lecturers, opportunity for developing other skills, such as through the career service and other academic skills. The university has a good interaction with student through social media so I feel like they are there to support us and listen to our queries.

Famous university and good education

Good facilities and nice location

Our university offers plenty of helps in study, career and life. There are many useful learning materials like SAS, STATA, even a Bloomberg room. And there are a lot of career services to help student find a job. Student clubs organized many activities to enrich our lives. Everything is awesome.

University of Bristol is one of the most prestigious universities and has a lot to offer. There are variety of services provided to help students with student life.

Im general is not the best campus, although professors and teaching is great

The campus is very beautiful. There’re lots of activities running by students union and career centre that make students know more about the university and future jobs.

nice campus and environment. nice libraries and staffs

Beautiful open campus located near city centre but have to climb hills if you live downtown

I love Bristol and UoB. It's sad to lose opportunity of face to face class due to COVID-19.

Very short experience in taught postgraduate experience. But still good in life experience and student care.

It is a city campus university.The infrastructure is good and the teachers are really helping and cooperative.

Great Experience of city blended with University. Happy vibe and lovely atmosphere

Exceptional University which cares for the students and their well-being. Professors seek to help you the best way they can and to provide you with the best academic experience possible.

Bristol uni is great for its reputation but they definitely overwork their students & aren’t racially diverse (especially in terms in staff)

Wonderful university and highly ranked in my particular subject area. The academics are rigorous and there is a notable emphasis on research - traits that make for great employability and possibly prestigious careers. It will be difficult, especially as an international student, but it is worth it.

Our university is so quiet and provide me an amazing study experience. Library is large and bright.

I like the environment in the university and good opportunity to meet new friend and people

UOB is a very nice institution because I meet so many friends here. I like the teachers and the school staff . I love UOB

I was spectig way too more from Uob. But the curricula is highly UK centrist (although the university portraits itself as an International one). Plus the levels of bureaucracy are absolutely absurd (even for straightforward things as a asking for a microphone and sound) and at Uob always there is going to be two problems for one solution...

Perfect experience here learn not only the knowledge but also more important how to be independent

The housekeeping service is really nice and the reception staff are all friendly and patient to deal with problems.

Going to be honest and tell you not to believe a lot of these reviews. They seem to be dubious in their authenticity. Bristol is a lovely city and has some great people, but also some not so great people. It is probably (behind Durham) the poshest university in the country, and the demographics of the people attending reflect that. That said, I have made some really lovely friends, just don't feel the need to conform to the posh gear-head stereotype, it gets old after about three weeks! The real issue is the teaching. My course (Geography) has been interrupted and cancelled throughout my first two years, both trough industrial actions and Coronavirus. Engagement with students is pretty horrendous. I feel that this is masked through the 'self-sufficient' attitude the university tells you to adopt, but in reality I feel this is just a scape goat for them to not really give a **** about your concerns or queries. Lecturers often don't show up, cancel, and will never reply to your emails.

Excellent school. Facility is brand new.

The university provides so many resources to students in many different ways. It pays attention to their well-being, future career, and academic performance, for sure. There are so many study place with computers and printers available. The campus WiFi is quite stable. Since it takes a longer time and more energies to go to campus everyday, The uni also provides bus voucher to those living in farther uni accommodations (e.g. resident village east).

Even though the halls are spread out, the actual uni campus isn'y really like this, everything you need could be found in a fairly small area (e.g. study spaces, shops etc.). The city is a really great place and there's loads of independent businesses around to support. The internet at the uni is really good, never had any issues with that. Certain times of the day can be busier when trying to find study spaces, so it's usually better if you get to uni earlier, but there's loads of places you can try. I didn't have much of an experience with the SU, but there's a society for everyone.

I hope careers service could be running online under the coronavirus situation, for example, online lectures, online mock interviews, etc.

I didn’t join any club. The wifi of UoB is good.

I love going to the uni of bristol. There are so many societies and sporting activities to get involved with. The uni is in a great location and Bristol is such a beautiful place with a good balance between city life and nature. Nightlife is really good with a range of clubs and different music.

I love our campus. I am proud of our school.

An inspiring and lively environment to be in, with lots of like-minded individuals to meet and get to know. You'll always see a friendly face whenever you're on campus. Being located in the heart of the city makes you truly feel integrated, and there's less separation between students and locals.

Pretty Wonderful university except a long ascent to go to school

The best uni ever!! I am doing my masters in accounting and finance. One of the few unis that they have access to bloomberg trading systems. Amazing tutors!! Extremely passionate about their jobs. If I had to do it from the begining, I would have still choose UWE.

I’m really enjoying my time at UoB. I love the campus and feel well looked after by the student union and other services provided to students, such as the PGR hub. I really enjoy lectures with leading professors in my subjects.

Career Service is nice，but I don’t really agree with the strike

World class teaching, with good study spaces, excellent Wifi connectivity. Large green spaces for hanging out with friends, walks, and being around nature. Very international, and supportive of international students. Student Union located outside actual University precinct, could have a better location.

Good uni to study in. Good lecturers

Very well organised, I found my course very useful, social life through clubs is amazing

A really great place to study and a fantastic atmosphere to be a part of.

Has the potential to be such a great uni, but layout and lack of campus is isolating. Also most people who go here are very full of themselves and look down on those not trying to be 'edgy', pretty sickening place. City is brilliant though, although a tad expensive.

Not satisfied with academic aspects, but the uni overall is ok

Well the university is really care about our mental health. They support a lot on career service, which is really helpful

Everything is very nice about Bristol expert I am always hot and breathless from the exertion of climbing uphill.

University of Bristol is perfect

Facilities and professor are perfect. Unfortunately twice university strikes were influenced our study

The university of Bristol is a very beautiful school with advanced facilities and a strong learning atmosphere

The University of Bristol is a nice and friendly campus with multiple libraries and social areas all over the campus!

I love it! Nice supervisor and colleges... It provides a big scholarship to support my PhD study.

ok it could be better for me personally.

One of the best University in the UK

Good uni but can be lonely at times. Student wellbeing and support in first year could be better - the treatment of mental health needs to be examined.

I like the school library and study room best. It is very convenient and has a learning atmosphere.

University of Bristol is amazing with its campus facilities, support center, social activities

UoB is the one of the best university in the world. there are responsible teacher and nice students come from all over the world.

The school Wi-Fi is very excellent. I can use it for every place. The careers service gives us a lot of activities which are useful.

Bristol University for me is the best choice of my life (till now)!

I really like it here, I don't feel stressed and I'm comfortable with staff and lecturers

Bristol was always my dream and here I am! I love every minute of it, amazing facilities and opportunities, the staff are always there to offer help. And the clubs and societies are absolute jokes, some of the stuff they get up to and you can meet such good friends through this!

University of Bristol It offers a wide range of courses. The library provides a lot of materials you may need to engage with and there is a 24/7 internet service.

Good uni. Can feel impersonal at points.

Amazing facilities and opportunities and wide range of societies and social events.

Large campus relatively close to the city centre.

Brilliant university so much help and support and great location through the city with great night life as well as academic integrity

Great Student Union, and very helpful Careers Service

Amazing university. I am enjoying it here

Need more space for social life and studying-seems to be in construction

Good campus and generally nice location

There is a variety of societies in the University of Bristol, there will be at least one society you are interested in.

Bristol's fine. It's full of Oxbridge rejects and private school kids who wanted to feel cool but it's a fun city and, if you make it past the first term, it's a good uni.

I regret studying at Bristol university, the teaching isn’t great at all, some lecturer are racist with the way they teach, most of my lectures are cancelled/ rescheduled, overall it’s a depressing university.

Great campus, lots of facilities in all fields! There is a great amount of societies, offering anything one could look for. SU is really active and has an important presence. Student life is great, lots of clubs, restaurants, bars, and social areas are available around the place. Careers Service is really helpful and active. Internet is usually very strong and fast, ping is rather low (eduroam provider).

great teacher and great student life

Everything about my university experience so far has exceeded my already high expectations. The campus and the facilities such as the libraries, the study spaces and the lecture theatres are great and actually inspire us to do work and be productive. From what everyone has been telling me, the professional mental health support service is very disappointing so I think this is an area that certainly needs work but overall I have personally felt very supported by my tutors and professors, in terms of them being friendly and approachable. The average student cost of living is also another area that needs to be paid more attention but overall my experience as a first-year is very positive.

Amazing university, lots of help and services offered.

various activities and events that are really inspiring

Teaching and support are pretty weak, a lot of clubs and societies running which you should get involved in.

University of Bristol is a really good university with a very high standard!

Its A really good and safe place to study.

Almost a term in and I still haven't set up eduroam as it's too complicated and I can't figure it out :(

................................

University is great, the hills not so much

Lectures and seminars are amazing here at UoB! With a range of guest speakers who are professionals who are at the top of their field... You have an amazing opportunity to pick these people's brains... Highly recommend applying for UoB!

Amazing uni ! Can’t recommend enough

Fantastic all-round, victoria rooms are everything amusic student could want. Welcoming staff, and great location. Trendy and with the times, made to feel right at home and excited for the experience to come.

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
