really good uni satisfied with everything
Great facilities, can rely on age and status of the university a bit and sometimes it feels there is a gap between lecturers/ the university and students but I've had lots of very helpful lecturers who take time out to support me
Had a great experience with my university
The university experience is very fulfilling, the student union is very democratic, we make full decisions, and I like the experience.
Lecturers are nice, very easy to talk to. Choice of courses are great too
A good studying experience, on the posh end of things but very social and decent support from tutors.
Not the best, not the worst...a bit meh
dont really have much of a sense of community for the art school.
Overall it felt good, the people were friendly and the classrooms were bright
Amazing University thats what would i say. I'm doing Masters MSc HRM, and I have no regrets about anything.
Edinburgh University is a great place to study, there are many places throughout the city that you can study in, university-owned and not, and the staff are generally very helpful and friendly. There are plenty of societies to get involved with.
Good uni nice people beautiful city
Having a really great time learning, meeting new people from various cultures and attending various types of events. University of Edinburgh provides a very concrete education system methodology including an overall all round experience with lots of other activities in this cultural heritage of Scotland.
Great university, great campus, kind and great teachers!!
Love studying at this uni, feel blessed to have such a selection of facilities
Great university and student life despite these challenging times!!
Great university! Beautiful location. Professors are quite proactive and provide good quality learning. Could improve their organisation and communication with students, especially when it comes to advising for scholarships for exchange programs.
Don’t know too much about the university as I’ve only been here this year and it’s been mostly online.
Such a nice place！Large common spaces！modern living environment. Most importantly, officers are so nice to talk to
An amazing experience studying here. Supportive career service team, friendly staff and high quality of teaching and a diverse student community.
The societies are fantastic. In terms of academics, some departments are better than others ( and by a mile ).
The kings buildings bus is very good, teachers are helpful
I really had an amazing time at my university. High ranking, beautiful city, and so many amazing people here. It's a really fantastic vibe. :)
Staff are unfriendly and rude in our campus. We are treated with contempt and rudeness. The student bars are not discounted and it’s often cheaper to go elsewhere and claim a student discount than to go to the student unions.
Good coursework and state of the art integration with technology for remote learning.
University of Edinburgh is a great place to study
Very fast gigabit wifi in dorms
Great university. Excellent campus facilities.
A good university but lacking in student support
Very beautiful university with amazing staff. Huge resources to access. Plenty of study spaces.
Plenty of opportunities for people if you are proactive
Good education quality, awesome environment :)
A good experience to transfer across different campuses
It's a very beautiful university, with extremely helpful professors, and I really enjoy how the entire experience is so involving, and I'm glad I went with Napier!
A good university with many buildings in the same area so it's convenient. Not very personal though.
The University is really good in terms of academic and social activities
An alright univeristy in an amazing city.
Great university overall. Nice staff and excellent demonstrators. Overall community is very supportive.
The best uni that I could get into!
has been a fun experience so far, the teaching has been interesting and lots of ways to get academic help to make things go smoothly
I have only been here a month but so far it has been the best experience ever
Everything is not bad, especially the facilities
Amazing place to study, state of the art

Uni has been great since I joined, loads of societies and activities to do every week
I'm so glad I picked this university, happiest I've ever been.
I have been enjoying my course this year and all my teachers have been good.
The university has a wide range of societies and social opportunities, with something for everyone. The student union always make you feel welcome.
The University is better than I expected, it really has everything in it, it’s modernised and new is most of the parts. I am loving my experience so far and my course is just exactly how I wanted it to be xx
There are plenty of libraries to study in with a tracker of how many seats are in use on each floor which is very useful. WiFi can be a bit temperamental sometimes but definitely good enough to study.
Great city and great university to study at. A wide range of subjects and great supportive staff.
Great library materials and resources
Great uni with great amenities and amazing teaching staff.
Great accommodation and lovely helpful staff! In a nice location not too far from the campus
The university has decent facilities, but I expected them to have better and more modern facilities, especially for computer science for example.
The university of Edinburgh is really good, the only issue I’d say is it does feel like they drop you in there. I understand University is self study but it can be sometimes hard to understand what they ask of you to do but then have to navigate where to find what they are asking. But apart from that the university does a good job and creating events and having lots of things running at the same time to keep people interested.
Edinburgh is a good university with adequate facilities
The library is very accessible and there’s a variety of books. The campus is really historical and pretty!
The city is so beautiful and the buildings are pretty
It’s been great so far, teaching is amazing and the campus is beautiful

Helpfull stuff, great academic material access!
Love the careers service over everything else. All other aspects are great too, just not a stand out.
I’m a sport student- the campus is gorgeous and the resources available are very helpful - also love the gym
The university provides me with good facilities, they ensure the safety of students when incidents occur.
Good but not much to do in societies
Provide great supports in all aspects
Really lovely place to live in!
Very good university. I hope I will have more face to face courses on the second semester
World-class university with excellent lecturers and wide set if facilities and clubs.
It's my home now, the stuff is supportive and they care about my career
Exactly what you would expect, everything is well ordered, efficient and the quality of teaching is excellent.
I like Uni in Edinburgh a lot, due to covid, in-person teaching hasn't fully resued yet but my tutorials are in-person and they're really good.
This is one of the most prestigious universities in UK and you will find one of the best facilities and faculties in the entire world. I am having an amazing experience over here.
Didn't use the facilities much as everything was hybrid this year.
Edinburgh has always been my dream school. I like the city, the people, the landscape, the intellectual environment, everything here! The courses are really hard but worth all the effort! The tutors are kind too.
Great uni, nice and big campus, with a lot of activities.
excellent place to study and live
I haven’t been on campus due to COVID unfortunately.
Wasn’t in campus much thanks to covid
It’s been difficult this year with covid however I think it’s been great still being able to stay in halls for a half uni experience.
Overall a very positive experience, staff have been helpful with issues and the accommodation has been well maintained
Edinburgh is such a historic university
Had a wonderful 4 years here. I am graduating soon and will be very sad to leave
Studying in Univeristy of Edinburgh is a wonderful experience which over my expects. I met excellent professors like Judith, Burkhard which helps me a lot in the course and I met good classmates, They are all warm-hearted, kind and hard-working! I really love this univeirsty and this city!
I love my university, I've been enjoying it since the beginning. Only biggest thing is covid and I assume everyone's had a rough time since that started.
Great university, although i think research opportunities, teaching quality and course selection would be better criteria for this review
A wonderful place for those who want to study, experience peaceful and meaningful college life. An attractive city and inspirational community. I am glad I chose to study at the University of Edinburgh.
So far, the university seems great even though I haven't really be able to experience a lot of things given the pandemic.
Great internationally-renowned unversity, one of the top worldwide.
During COVID a lot of things were different and we were unable to experience them, but the courses where pretty good even done online.
My professors were friendly and knowledgeable.
I rated everything a 3 because I can count on one hand the amount of times I went to campus this year.
The staff here are very helpful and dealt well with the situation today. I hope I can meet them in real life soon, but overall I am satisfied with the services they provided at the moment.
I’m not located on the main campus and as a post graduate have less to do with the clubs and societies etc
