I did a masters in economics and was very disappointed. Very expensive, yet you don't get much back, level is kept extremely low to make most students pass. The business model seems to be built mostly on a good marketing scheme.
An incredible place filled with incredible people. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough
One star areas are just not something I looked into much to be honest. Unions are dirty buildings meant for undergraduates for the most part. The rest was decent. Great library.
Horrible bulldozing of historic western infirmary, and ever increasing limits on free speech, with an idiot of a rector
Glasgow law school is the 2nd best in the U.K. hahaha up you Oxford!!!!
Love the uni. So much to do, everyone is lovely, great members of staff - both teaching staff and support staff.
A historically good university ruined first by its students, electing a pathetic rector, purely as a political gesture, wishing to censor free speech, and then the University Officials having a complete disregard for the heritage of the university and the surrounding area and demolishing a sizable ornate former infirmary block to throw up some glass monstrosity. It disappointed me more every year.
An amazing place to study with awesome people and quality teaching
Friendly area, fantastic facilities, great place to experience Unversity life and study.

Mostly old lecture theatres, hence quite uncomfortable benches and stuff. Just like old churches. Computer labs in Maths and Stats building and Boyd Orr building are good. Lots of cafeterias and coffee shops around campus, but not always easy to find! Very crowded in the 2017/2018 semesters due to a mistake where the uni accepted too many students.
The world best university. I like it too much. And inshAllah i have a plan for Master Degree in Electrical Engineering.There students are friendly and supportive.
Very lovely historical University.
Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting. The experience I had with this University left me humiliated and absolutely dejected. I was treated with so much rudeness from the staff members and unbelievable indifference for a potential student trying to explain that their online account does not work. The man from the complaints team seemed absolutely bored with his job which would explain why he hung up on me and BLOCKED my number. What kind of University allows the staff members to act in this manner....absolutely dissapointed. It is not worth it.
Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting. The experience I had with this University left me sick to my stomach, humiliated and angry. I was with extreme rudeness from staff members and utmost indifference. It left me speechless how terrible they can be to potential students. I wish I had never signed up for this University.
It's great to study at such an old university! Feels like I'm actually in Hogwarts!
Can't complain, it's pretty standard
Library is the worst place on earth
Glasgow is number 1 in scotland
So many cool societies, tailored to every interest!
No complaints, offer everything I can think of
Overall good university- however could benefit form more seating areas
Absolutely beautiful university, great campus and great location, can't fault the university itself at all
Glasgow University is like studying at Hogwarts without the witchcraft and wizardry. It is a beautiful campus with lots of useful facilities surrounding it. The library is huge, and there are always staff around to help. There are many opportunities to join clubs and societies, the only criticism I would have of this is the funding for the clubs is not the best. There are two unions to choose from, GU is definitely the best if you can get past the smell of stale beer. Overall a great place to study!
All services provided at the university are excellent in almost every way. However the university accommodation options provided are far away from the university. An on-site car park would also be really beneficial.
It's all pretty good at Glasgow really
Beautiful campus, tons of societies and amazing Student Unions!
Have really enjoyed my first term at University of Glasgow :)
Wonderful university, great quality of courses and great lecturers and tutors.
Met so many awesome people, although there have been problems with wifi conNecton in my halls
I've had a great first year so far and met many great people. The uni is fantastic with great lectures/lecturers and there's always plenty to do with two unions and Glasgow city centre only 20 minutes away
The university of Glasgow suits me perfectly
Really friendly and lively, always someone to talk to! All facilities needed are available, there's nothing needed that we don't seem to have! Main buildings are beautiful with great views especially in summer. Also high level of teaching and staff.
It's a great university with great facilities and fantastic teaching. I love the tea there too. ten out of ten.
It is billiant and I wouldn't change for the world
Very good education, great nightlife to go with it and great night at the unions
Great facilities on campus with lots of events on and clubs to join. Wi-fi is a bit temperamental at times but this is not a massive issue. A great benefit is the computer labs open 24 hours for computing students which is of great benefit to computing students.
Great university, staff all very supportive and Great facilities.
Great university, really moving with the times!
Feels like they actually care about the students.
Excellent university with great facilities and an unbeatable reputation. I value in particular the learning atmosphere around the campus, the university's very dedicated academic staff and its extensively well equipped library; the UofG is a perfect place for studying and research!
convinent wifi connection all over the campus, full of historical landmarks and academic atmosphere,professional teachers,lots of career opportunities
Excellent Uni! Massive range of clubs and societies, most of which are well organised and run. 2 student unions so better choice on nights out. Great prospects on graduating
eduroam doesnt even work what a f****** joke
Excellent university, friendly and helpful teachers/staff/Freshers' helpers
It has amazing student unions full of events where you can go and have a great time! There is also many many societies which you can check out and join.
The campus is big but easy to find places. The buildings are nice and lecture theatres I have been in are clean and a good temperature with students being respectful with regards to noise during classes
Only at the start of uni but feel very welcomed
The University of Glasgow provides a good experience for almost everyone, giving you the chance to study in a social and sporty environment.
Beautiful and well organised campus. Staff (acerbic and others) are on the whole helpful, and the degree content is second to none.

Glasgow uni is the best decision I ever made. I study languages and love my course! The city is the best place to be as a student and the university is so beautiful - it's so nice to study in such a lovely building. Come to Glasgow - I can guarantee you won't regret it!
I love my uni, from the building to the lecturers it's by far the best experience of my life so far!
Amazing place full of opportunities. Unions are top class.
I enjoy being at Glasgow uni. It's a fun place to be while also providing great classes. It does a lot to provide employment opportunities and diverse studies
Beautiful university campus with great wifi.
Amazing atmosphere and can sense the history on campus every time you visit. Loving university of Glasgow life after completing my first year.
The University of Glasgow has a plethora of outstanding features, in a variety of areas. From academic prowess and achievements to sporting dominance - not forgetting the insane nightlife that goes with it! There's something for everyone. And not just something to get involved in, something to be proud of!
Great university, would recommend
What could be bad about a university that looks like Hogwarts? Both student unions are great and give you variety. Best uni in UK!!
Wonderful experience, no negative things to say at all.
Amazing experience, facilities and time!
Great university, Great facilities Wifi in all areas
Surpassed all my expecatations, made my first year a stress free, fun, enjoyable experience. Really amazing university, already strongly passionate about it, would recommend it to anyone! Great for meeting a huge range of people, discovering new things and, at risk of sounding very cliche, really helping you grow as a person.
It's good for reputation but the eating facilities are rubbish . The canteen food is horrible . It is great academically
The university is beautiful and academically it is second to none.
The university of Glasgow is as a whole a fantastic university to be part of. The campus is amazing with unique buildings which make it a pleasure to go to lectures. The societies and clubs are great as there is an amazing,large selection to choose from and allows for a wider university experience!! I can't wait to start year 2!!!
Amazing University that looks like Hogwarts.
They won't let you fail, they really care about their students. I've lived my time here so far.
Really loved my experience! A shame about the main union closing, but it is for a refurb I suppose!
Great university with a spectacular atmosphere. World leader for several research fields and exciting opportunities await.
Great campus. Spent most of it in Gilmorehill and Boyd Orr. Love the library and Fraser building - food offered is great. Great societies - STaG in particular.
A fantastic and warm environment welcomes any student that is willing to partake in events and social gatherings. For students who are a bit more secluded, the university offers many clubs and societies that anyone will fit into and make friends for life. I know that I have made 4 fantastic friends that I will hopefully keep all my life.
Not always the facilities for the vast number of students - despite the library being enormous it is often jam packed. Any hope of studying in there during exam season is lost. Campus wifi is eduroam so is bad as a standard. Option of two large students unions is excellent, you can find any sort of environment you want. Prices are a bit on the high side for a union but still not as bad as in normal pubs.
beaut campus, love the course and so much stuff to get involved in!
The university of Glasgow is absolutely amazing! The city as a whole is fantastic and the university stands out amongst it, it also has extremely helpful staff and facilities and the option of a truly flexible degree.
The University of Glasgow is a vibrant, student orientated university in the west end of Glasgow. The setting of the uni is as beautiful as the buildings on campus. The only uni I have ever wanted to go to!!
It's a great university and if you make the effort you'll find really good societies and became very close to the people you meet. The Queen Margaret Union is really cool and a nice place to hang out, and to go to on Friday nights. The music is more varied than in the other union.
