Great university. Friendly and social environment. Great support from teachers.
Hi there,Thank you so much for your review. We are delighted to hear about your experiences so far at Manchester Metropolitan University. :) Kind regards,Luke
The University works hard to find me a job! That’s the most interesting part of my experience with Manchester Metropolitan University.
A good uni with lovely staff. It’s in a good location with lots of transport
Its a good university. Have had some issues with units etc but other than that the staff are really friendly and some of the lecturers are really passionate making the lectures more enjoyable. Have a good range of events and an excellent amount of support available for student. They put a big emphasis on sustainability which is something very important to me so I am very appreciative of that. Overall would recommend the university. The issues Ive had I imagine are common place across a lot of universities
Great University, any questions you have you can ask your teachers and they will help you out. The campus is situated in a great location with many things nearby like restaurants and pubs. There is a graduate job scheme as well which helps provide you with valuable work experience after you've graduated which is great.
There's only one thing that lets this university down: The communication between student and staff. I've never faced such difficulty when trying to hear back from someone before. Most of the time, I get no reply, a reply weeks later, or I am referred to someone else (who sends me back to the person I initially contacted).
Hi there, Thank you for your review! I am sorry to hear that you have faced difficulty when trying to contact a member of staff. Are you still wishing to contact the individual? In addition to a contact number, many of our academic staff have various office hours and walk-in sessions available each week for our students.

I hope that this has been helpful. Thank you. Luke :)

Absolutely disgraceful institution, especially it's teaching and education courses! The primary education course is run by incompetent staff who fail to support their students and whose teaching is abysmal at best. They should be ashamed of themselves for not prioritising students welfare and safety while they are on placement. Hundreds of students on the primary education course have experienced bullying, intimidation, verbal abuse and felt unsafe around their mentors while on placement. What is the universities response to this? They fail us or tell us to be 'more assertive' or in some cases to apologise to the unprofessional mentor so that they can desperately cling on to their precious partnership schools. I have experienced intimidation and verbal abuse while on placement and I spend 11 weeks being scared to go to placement and crying after every day there. I took all my evidence to the university and begged them to intervene. They did nothing. Disgraceful.
Hello, We are sorry to hear about your experiences. If you would like to discuss this in more detail please contact Janet Lord, the faculty director of education, on j.lord@mmu.ac.uk who would be happy to pick this up with you. Thank you. Luke
Amazing uni with loads of support for students and services to help them along their academic journey. Cares so much about student wellbeing and makes sure to focus on it as equally as it does on the outstanding level of education you get whilst attending here.

wide range of societies to join and also have free sports to play every weekday
I'm quite quiet so the lecturers feeling approachable is really great. The facilities are really clean and to a high standard. I really recommend it here
Great facilities and brilliant teaching staff who help you through any problems clearly

1st year at school of art Unfortunately haven't had a lot of access due to covid, but when i could the staff and facilities have been amazing! I love it here
Thanks so much for such a positive review. Fingers crossed for face-to-face learning come September! For more advice about the coming academic year please visit: Studying in September 2021 | Manchester Metropolitan University (mmu.ac.uk).
Great experience and lovely staff.
Thank you for taking the time to post your 5* review - it's really appreciated:)
Welcoming and supportive, great location in central manchester, plenty of pubs, bars and things to do nearby.
So many great facilities which are open to all uni students. Would have been better without covid but from what we could do I feel the university made it the most enjoyable they possibly could
That's so great to hear, thanks for your review. Good to hear you're enjoying our facilities and your studies despite the difficulties caused by the Covid pandemic. Let's hope for a healthy and happy 21/22 academic year!
Very good support for students
Havent had a chance to enjoy anything since everything has been online
Hi there. Thanks for your review. We've obviously had to stick to Govenment guidelines in relation to teaching and learning during the Covid-19 pandemic but are sorry to hear that you've not been enjoying your online studies. Our aim is to offer all students a full on-campus experience from September 2021. For more information and teaching and learning for the upcoming academic year, please visit the designated section on our website: Studying in September 2021 | Manchester Metropolitan University (mmu.ac.uk). Wishing you healthy and happy studies come September! :)
Great place to study and good facilities
Thanks for your review! Great to hear you're enjoying studying with us! :)
Hard to rate these when we haven’t been able to attend almost anything or join clubs but the campus facilities are great
Thanks for your review. We appreciate that the past year has been difficult for our students in terms of experiencing the University as a remote learner. We are hoping to be able to offer face-to-face teaching and learning from September, although this is obviously subject to Government guidance. Please see our website for up-to-date information about this: Studying in September 2021 | Manchester Metropolitan University (mmu.ac.uk). Please let us know if you've got further questions :)
Good everything is good quite good
Thanks so much for your 5* review! It is very much appreciated :)
Joanne answered to all of my questions today, which were many. She was polite, helpful and nice.
Thanks so much for your review! Glad to hear that you enjoyed one of our Virtual Open Days :)
Having moved to Manchester in a pandemic, I have found the facilities and socials very easy to access and they are very welcoming.
Thanks for this, it's great to know that despite the challenges of the past year we've still maintained our reputation as a friendly and welcoming University. Best of luck with the rest of your studies :)
Manchester metropolitan is a good university. Wide range of many courses to choose from & very experienced lecturers to help you with need be.
Thanks for your review. It's great to hear that you're enjoying your time with us :)
Haven’t really experienced everything due to Covid but on my course the facilities are good and there seem to be lots of clubs. So close to the city too
The facilities are great, with good internet and home environment. The staff are very friendly and can find them to repair quickly when there is a problem with the room.There was a hole in the wall of our kitchen one day. After the problem was reported, the maintenance staff repaired it the next day, and the problem was quickly resolved. Super efficiency and enthusiastic service, especially at this bargain price, it is hard not to give a five-star.
Thanks for such a fantastic review! We're really happy to hear that you've had a great experience with us :)
A nice university with lots of good facilities. The staff try and help you as much as they possibly can and they are really helpful.
Great to hear you're enjoying life here at Manchester Met! Best of luck with your studies :)
In this special year, I failed to experience the campus life. I've been taking online classes at home. Fortunately, the online class experience was good.
A really great university to study at. I was apprehensive before arriving as I didn't know what to expect, but the lecturers were super helpful and welcoming. I'm really glad I chose to come here.
Thanks so much for such a positive review - we're really pleased you're enjoying your time with us :)
Awful university - do not come here! I wish I went to any other university - MMU support is little to none and when you ask tutors for additional support or have something to say about their teaching, they get hostile and don't want to waste their "time" to support their students even though we're paying £9k. Go somewhere else - you're better off!
Hello. I'm really sorry to hear you feel you've had a bad experience with us. Have you tried addressing these issues with a Student Hub Adviser? Or perhaps speaking to the Student Union Advice Centre? If you'd like to follow this up please email me at courses@mmu.ac.uk. Thanks, Sophie :)
