Fantastic campus with an array of societies and clubs to suit everyone. I have been made to feel extremely welcome and included as a mature student. My peers, who are much younger make my experience worthwhile for me. Staff are fantastic, always happy to help. It never feels like you are bothering them. Campus itself is easy to navigate and set in the beautiful city of Lincoln with easy access to the town and surrounding amenities,
Studying at the uni of Lincoln has been great so far! There are hundreds of societies you can join and the SU are always running events. The library is a great place to go and study and there are lots more venues around campus that you can use as well as lots of outdoor space!
Really enjoyed my time here, never had any problems.
I love Lincoln university I have had a great experience with all my classes and all the rest of the socials
In my school the lecturer’s have been so helpful this year, even when I thought about dropping out, they created a comfortable environment and teaching space where I don’t have to hesitate to ask them any questions. In my societies, I have met so many different people and it has made my university experience more enjoyable.
After studying here for nearly four years I have found that the university is a really lovely place to not only get the degree that I wanted, but also to engage in various extracurricular activities which I have thoroughly enjoyed.
Very good university in the heart of Lincoln, with great student life and outstanding education.
Lovely campus with lots of support and services. The students union put on lots of fun events and there is always something to look foward to.
I cannot fault the University of Lincoln at all. I’ve only been attending this university since September 2024 and I am so glad I decided to pursue my higher education here.
Lovely campus right near the high street and shops. Lovely walks around Lincoln too
Great university, so many societies to get involved in and the union is great
When I was in Nigeria, I always wanted to do my masters in the UK but when I needed to select a university I was unsure. I had a few friends in the UK and some recommended their universities to me but for some reason I fell in love with my current university for two reasons. One is the student life is made easy, in as much as it’s a school where we’re all meant to be studious, it balances all the aspects of a student’s life and this truly inspired my decision. Two is the teaching methods, my university teaches you in a way that you understand and not just for the purposes of passing exams or assessments. When I applied to university of Lincoln, I didn’t apply to any others I was just so sure that this was my dream school and for this reason I will always recommend the university of Lincoln to anyone and everyone. Thanks.
Very nice service, always holding different events, clean environment and perfect equipment
Campus facilities are good but food can be a bit expensive considering its a university. I don't belong to any societies however there are a lot to join. Students Union are okay. Careers are good. We have a lot of lectures from them about how to prepare for when we finish university. Wi-Fi can be good but most of the time it is playing up.
I'm glad I chose to study here, I'd recommend it to anyone.
Love the university and the place.
Amazing and beautiful university
The SU is a business here and not a union. Yeah they provide the societies funding, but what they sell is not student friendly, it’s upwards of £6 for a pint, £10 for a burger, everyone just goes to local pubs. They say every pound spent goes back to student experiences, and I don’t believe that, they charge more for food than a small family owned pub.
Best choice I ever made! I would recommend Lincoln to everyone
Lived here for all years of my degree and it was the best choice I made. It's a real home away from home, the staff are amazing and the amenities are perfect for student living on a budget. I would recommend to anyone looking for good quality, affordable accommodation in lincoln!
Junxion is a great place to live, I have lived here from 1st to 3rd year. The staff are always so friendly and there to help. Perfect location, the best student location in Lincoln.
Simply the best, can’t find a better place where the overall best interest of students are overly emphasized and prioritized .
All in all positive, don't live in student halls
A great university that offers a wide range of courses with very helpful staff
Worth my rent and the free car pack is a great idea! Thank you!
A very good atmosphere for Studies.they offers a wide collection of books in library.
Great university, I have a lot of great experiences here. There are plenty of club and society which you have to pay to join and nearly half of them are more than 50£ per semester but it is a good chance to meet new friends who is not the same course as you.
A good atmosphere for studying with all advanced technology.
Friendly learning environment with modern facilities.
Loved every second of being a part of this university
The uni is great it is all very close together and is close to the main town area. The facilities are great and the different library’s are an added bonus.
it’s a good university. Cant go wrong
The staff are fantastic and always on hand to help , and are always quick to fix any issues I've encountered #welovecolin
centrally located campus with modern buildings and facilities within a small cosy town with easy access to everything
Overall absolutely breathtaking experience it is till now. Cheers ✌️
Campus is wonderful, staff are supportive
This university wasn't my first choice but it's my chosen choice.
University of lincoln is same as my home and my experience over there in university is excellent
University of Lincoln is an outstanding educational institution committed to academic excellence, innovative research and fantastic student experience. The school is student centered and has a great approach to learning
The best choice that I could have made! The most wonderful staff and perfect location to the uni
My experience so far has been worthwhile.
Lovely campus, everything within proximity! Lots of nice social spaces. Student union building really nice for social activities and gathering! Really calming vibes
I have enjoyed me time so far studying and making friends
Good uni. I’ve enjoyed being a student here and they have a good wellbeing service.
The school has a beautiful environment, and the infrastructure of each building is perfect. The multimedia classroom in the lecture also enables me to clearly see the ppt presentation of my tutor.
A lot of activities, event and support
Well, my experience so far as been nothing but splendid I'm an international student who just resumed at the university although the campus and it facilities are great but I feel some departments are so far from each other. The facilities are quite accessible and some activities you can join. The welcome programe are somewhat helpful with navigating your way around, the most amazing gift i have gotten so far is from the accommodation team, they are so helpful cause you don't have to pay anything upfront which is so good for an internationalstudent . Overall, it has really been a great experience
I come from China and I think it’s a Good school for international students to study.
My experience at the university was good. The academics were solid, with knowledgeable professors and the modules offered were greatly suited for my program.
Overall everything is good. Teachers are very experienced.
Great experience. Would recommend. Great city.
great experience with careers services, campus and student societies
Generally UoL is a great uni and its campus is so accessible and diverse. There is such a good range of social activity to kickstart student life while also have a good support network. The university provides a safe and supportive atmosphere among peers.
I love the university. It’s the perfect fit for me
Decent university, small city with enough things to keep you occupied.
Staff are very kind and classes are interactive which is great
Hi I'm an international student and I was suffered extreme level racism and favouritism in this University. Just check their's international student results the pass ratio is not even 10 out of 100. Teachers and Management clearly threatened to student who raised their issues regarding this behaviour. Student Support is most worst people who just told you straight away " your are not getting your degree" on my early days of university when i go there for guidance or help. They don't care how student is suffering. Teachers stopped ✋️ us for asking questions. Student wellbeing refused to provide attendance record of there office's visit. Top of the world Teachers giving favors to other students in front of us but failed me for 5 minute lateness due to trains strike even i was there on my turn and i perform well in my presentation. Every single student is suffering a lot educational issues and university just showed us clearly they don't want to give us degree.
Its decent the biggest let down is the wifi
A really engaging university, welcoming people from all backgrounds. There is a lack of synergy between freshers and current students though - they could do with a buddy system or a group chat function which helps people integrate more and find like-minded individuals without feeling embarrassed.
I’m in my 3rd year at Lincoln uni and have had the best experience over the past 3 years. The campus is amazing with so many places to work and meet up with people. All my lecturers have been fantastic.
Decent university nice location good teachers
Excellent! Danesgate is a great place to stay
I have enjoyed my experience so far in the university
It’s a great uni, everyone is lovely and it’s a good location
The University of Lincoln is a great place to further my education, there were some events during freshers week that could've been handled better by the Students Union.
good uni for people who don’t wanna leave lincolnshire
The Uni also has really made things very interesting, ranging from the social events to the assistance to help us choosing a career and the lecturer generally. It a very goal oriented school with lots of amenities to help a student learn comfortable in a very conducive environment
Great university and nice scenery all around
The University of Lincoln offers an outstanding experience for international students, with a modern campus, a supportive and fun Students' Union, and a wide range of clubs to explore. The Careers Service is highly effective, providing great guidance for future careers, and the campus WiFi is consistently reliable for both study and leisure.
The university is decent for the location and the funding it is given. Lots of opportunity to help with future careers.
Best University in terms of student satisfaction all across England
Basic amount of support from school, tutors really helpfuul
The Internet is sometimes slow but the campus is big and has almost everything and the student Union is really helpful and get back to you. Relatively quickly
Great university, staff at the Student Union is super helpful as well as the staff at student Wellbeing.
It’s great university situated at Brayford pool
I’ve not joined any societies but I’ve seen them out and heard good things about them the students union have held a lot of events and email out the dates and what they’re planning to do each month so you can pick and choose if you want to go.
Great place to be socially, difficult if you don’t like clubbing but plenty of societies to choose from!
The university has been okay at the most part, I've been referred to student wellbeing to help get a diagnosis of ADHD but they're asking I pay a deposit which I cannot afford. The students themselves are mature and relaxed, I feel safe here.
Amazing location in the heart of Lincoln, everything is walkable and easy to navigate!
Really good uni, very helpful lecturer's. Student wellbeing are also very good. Nice clean campus.
A fabulous uni with helpful staff and a great pathway to help with careers and studies.
Not only is the property wonderful but the team is as well. There are numerous amenities and activities provided and it really feels like luxury. The team was also so caring and helpful to their residents, especially the manager Anthony who goes above and beyond. I was an international student and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable and accommodated. This is the best place I’ve lived by far and I wish I could just take it to the states with me. Thank you Iconinc Gravity!
Nice modern campus and everything is close together and in the city centre
To summarize my university, the university has a lot to offer in terms of societies and clubs. The university student union can also be accommodating as they have various sectors so you are able to get the best help. The university also has careers and employment offers ranging in lots of different aspects from part time to internship so again they also have a lot to accommodate you in finding work/careers. I mainly use one building and the building is well maintained clean and the equipment we are provided is regularly checked and updated to make sure we are provided with the best software. I have also never had issues with wifi, so I'm not interrupted whilst I'm working.
Overall my experience at UOL has been very positive. There are many services available, covering all aspects of any help support or guidance a student could possibly need.
I love the university of Lincoln. It feels like home and I cannot picture myself anywhere else
Good location!! Many amenities
The University of Lincoln offers an excellent learning environment with modern facilities and a supportive community. The teaching staff are knowledgeable and approachable, fostering both academic and personal growth. Its vibrant campus, located in the heart of a historic city, provides students with a great blend of academic and social life. Overall, it's a fantastic place to study and grow.
Lovely uni nothing can fault it
good ...... need more assistance for international students
Friendly university and great atmosphere
Lincoln is great, it has a community feel which fun societies, sometimes the lecturers aren't so interesting
I had a great four years here, the staff of the uni (history department) are great, the lecturers are above and beyond, my only criticism is the upper echelon of the uni do not look after their own people. I did my whole undergrad and masters without ever using a lecture theatre. The staff are underpaid and overworked and yet the uni still claims they have no money?
Great university, would recommend highly to people.

It’s great to hear your review of the University of Lincoln, thank you so much for spending the time to write us one. We agree, Lincoln is a wonderful city!
I don’t know enough about the students union or the societies to comment on. However, the Nursing society doesn’t do anything and promise activities and plans that never seem to happen. The wifi around campus is good however not reliable when first joining the university and have lost attendance through it not working.
I’m a film production student and this course has been amazing
It’s great to hear you are enjoying your studies here at the University of Lincoln. Thank you so much for spending the time to write us a review.
