Nothing much to say in regards to anything
Liverpool John Moores is a great university, I love the facilities and the only slight complaint I have is that I wish the campus was a little more walkable in terms of I don't spend much time on it, its there and home.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear that you’ve had such a positive time with the facilities. As we're a city-centre university we know it can be a bit of a walk between our two campuses, and we're working hard to improve the experience of those students who might not come to our Student Life Building often because of their teaching facilities on City Campus. Thanks so much for your helpful feedback.
Good place. Good support. Would recommend
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear that you’ve had such a positive time with the support available at LJMU - it's something that we're really proud of.

It's a good university, the rooms are large, but in terms of equipment, the wifi is buggy and some connections are difficult to connect to.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear that you’ve had a positive experience, and the feedback about the wifi is really helpful - it’s good to know where improvements could be made.
Great modern and inviting place
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear that you’ve had such a positive time on our LJMU campus
Great place to study, local and tha
That’s great to hear! It’s definitely a bonus having a good university close to home - makes studying a lot more convenient.
Campus facilities are fantastic, everything you could want is available to you, modern lecture rooms, digital library and easy access to support. Only problem with the facilities is that the library can be overcrowded and is not very sound proof. The societies are not something I ever thought about joining, so my review is just what i’ve observed. There was no society that screamed to me, but it is nice to see there is an Accounting and Finance society for the next year. You see an abundance of jokes online about how bad eduroam is, but clearly there is some glitch in the matrix at LJMU as it is fantastic. I found myself watching a lot of tutorials in the library, whilst also taking notes and even downloading a movie for the night, and I never had an issue with speed. I will be returning to LJMU in September as I have chosen to continue with a postgraduate, mainly due to the supportive staff.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear that you’ve had such a positive time with the facilities and support at LJMU, and that the staff played such a big role in your decision to continue with postgraduate study. The point about the library being overcrowded and not soundproof is really helpful feedback - it’s good to know where improvements could be made.
Great so far love my course yayyy
Thank you for such lovely feedback! We're so glad you're enjoying it!
Welcoming and helpful staff. There is always something going on to get involved in if you feel lonely or even just bored. Great studying areas and facilities. Everything is quite close together so it is easier to find where you need to go for lectures or workshops.

If you're looking for student accommodation that doesnt actually feel like student accommodation, this place is it. It’s honestly more like living in a really nice apartment than anything you'd expect from typical student housing The rooms are super comfy and modern, with loads of space to chill or study—whatever you’re feeling. It's definitely the best place to stay in Liverpool city centre and great for hosting events that everyone will want to come to because it's so modern! The whole building just has a different feel. It’s clean, quiet when you need it to be, and way more stylish than your average halls. You’ve got great amenities too that comes with it- a wash room, toaster, Tv, kettle, electric based hobs, floor length windows, double beds, and much more. It's perfect if you want to have your own space but still be part of a chill, friendly community wether your first year or third year
Thank you for such a fantastic review! We’re so happy to hear that your accommodation has exceeded your expectations, and we hope you continue to enjoy living here!
loved living here the first year- fantastic location as it is only about 5 minutes into the centre and lime street train station- right by the student life building and the ljmu campus
Thank you for your great feedback! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your first year here. We hope your second year is just as amazing, and that you continue to enjoy everything Liverpool has to offer!
