My course was perhaps the only thing I would change about my time at Loughborough. I think the opportunities available are incredible and guaranteed it will be the absolute time of your life.

Amazing campus. Great plans for nightlife of students. Also, plans for evening / non alcoholic events are getting better and bigger.

Can't really go wrong at Loughborough; course quality is excellent (why is this not an rating option?!), the diversity of students and the range of things to get involved in is second to none, eduroam provides an excellent service both in WiFi and in fast Internet service everywhere on campus, the student halls are not just reserved for first years (returners make up about a third) and there is a huge range in terms of pricing and hall spirit, industrial ties are brilliant meaning the likelihood of you getting a job out of your degree is also very high (already got mine and so does everyone I know), and nights out are fantastic with some decent guest performances through the year.

Really glad I eventually chose Loughborough - I've already secured a graduate job, half way through my second year of university.

Best Student Experience!

Always something on at the SU, so much to do! Cheap nights out, lots of clubs and societies to join in practically any area of interest. Beautiful campus in a lovely town, great if you dislike big cities. Lots of supoort given from teaching staff for careers advice, mental health support, maths support, anything you can think of! Fab sports facilities, and loads to get involved with.

Cons?
Big focus on sports, can be offputting if you are just starting out! Town is not very big, may need to travel to Nottingham or Leicester if in need of a big shopping trip! Some halls can be quite far away from town too.

My best decision!

Loughborough has a real everyone is welcome feel. Everyone is friendly including the staff who really help to make sure you do as well as you can. The union is great fun and town has also got everything you need & a few good nights out :)

Cons?
None so far.

Great campus, a lot of activities

Many societies to join, catering for all choices. Lots of chances to play sport, even if you are not an athlete!

Cons?
Maybe too much emphasis on sport sometimes. Very quiet town

Great in the day, nightlife could be better

The area is relatively cheap, rent, alcohol and food is a little cheaper than it is in the south. Wide variety of club and societies. Contrary to belief very few are actually elitist. If you're not an international athlete IMS sport is still available and train regularly. Facilities are top of the range. Mechanical Engineering course is intense and hard work (obviously). A lot of help is provided to find placements.

Cons?
Being a sporting university, there are a lot of men especially on nights out. Very Little support is provided once on placement. Some Lecturers are simply useless.

lufbra walks on water.

Great community and opportunities. Easy to get around and great courses.

Cons?
Small Town not much in the town but charity shops, but some good pubs and Leicester and Nottingham only down the road.
