Really great and welcoming university. After just completing my first year studying Sociology I couldn't be happier that I chose SHU; all the lectures are really supportive, friendly and approachable. The course is relevant and topical where it can be and this is futher supported by the fact that SHU has a large number of lecturers that are active in their field of study. I've made plenty of good friends whilst studying here and am looking forward to 2nd and 3rd year.

Great university with great facilities, canteens , communal areas and library facilities . All of the modern buildings provide a great environment aswell as the older buildings but less so . Great staff and great deliverance of lectures from all staff . Great uni!
Very good uni but not much disability support for disabilities you can’t necessarily see.
Absolutely love the University great place to spend your time and it’s full of support
Such great resources and support from staff.
SHU is full of supportive, understanding and down to earth staff, enabling pupils to really achieve their full potentials. Thank you!
My time at Sheffield hallam has been amazing. Everyone is so helpful and kind and it's so easy to find my way around
Great to hear.
Awful support from faculty regarding mental health and specific difficulties I faced. Career advisors gave me one suggestions - do an unpaid internship with us (bursary available up to a certain amount). I felt isolated, lonely and at the lowest points of my life at Hallam. They don’t care about student safety.
I'm really sorry that you've had this experience here, as our support services and wellbeing services are here to help you and offer advice, guidance and support especially when you need it most. This network of Hallam Help points, advisers, safe spaces and online help tools is available. I will feed this back to the support services as you shouldn't be left feeling like this.
Good place to learn I study mental health nursinf
Really pleased to hear it and glad you're enjoying your course and time here
All staff are lovely and facilities are okay but the union is the worst I have ever seen
Thank you for feeding back. The students' union is run by the students for the student so I'm sorry you feel it isn't all you would like it to be. I will pass your feedback onto the union and would be interested to hear if your opinion was around the spaces, services, or activities the union offers.
Absolutely diabolical university. Rude lecturers, terribly organised course (mental health nursing)
I'm really sorry to hear this. I will pass this onto the department to review, and would encourage you to feedback specific concerns to them so they can address these to improve your experience (and future students).
Great staff, Excellent teaching resources and methods what's not to love
Great to hear thanks. We've just won an award for our teaching quality (Sunday Times Good University Guide named us University of the Year for Teaching Quality - 2020 edition) so really pleased to hear you're enjoying it.
Sheffield Hallam is quite nice, the city campus buildings are quite close and easy to find.
Lovely to hear, thanks.
Not sure what it is like for other courses but, I am currently studying media (BA Hons) and my course is extremely disorganised. We didn't get our real timetables until today when we were meant to get them in July (I'm starting my second year and it said that we would get our timetables early). &Last term they told us halfway through some work we were doing that it was formative, when it said on the module page that it was summative. I also felt like on the making media module that the person teaching my group was marking very harshly when art is subjective and can't be put in one box, you can't mark something that is meant to be creative down just because it's not the way you wanted it to look. The computers in the media building (cantor) are also not fit for purpose. They are slow and unresponsive. It's supposed to be a media building but the computers are from the stone age.
I'm really sorry to hear this about your course. This is something I'll pick up with the Department of Media Arts and Communication to find out why there was a delay with timetables being released, and contradictory information given about your modules. We aim to ensure our IT equipment in buildings is up to scratch so I'll also pass on your thoughts about the equipment in the building.
Lovely campus but not enough support for mental health. Student union could be improved compared to other universities, it is disappointing
Thank you for letting us know. Glad you like the campus. We offer 3 dedicated advisers (student support, academic and employability) to help offer personal support throughout the uni life. Support for mental health is an area the support services are there to help with while you're at uni so if you feel there could be improvement I'll pass this onto the team. Our Hallam Insiders have written a mental health support blog which may help highlight some of the services available. The students' union is run by the students for the student so I'm sorry you feel that the union needs improvement and I will pass your feedback onto the union.
Overall great facilities however poor students union
Pleased to hear that you enjoyed our facilities. The students' union has plenty going on and is run by the students for the student so I'm sorry you feel that the union wasn't up to scratch for you. I will pass your feedback onto the union
Going into my second year and the university have been helpful and supportive with my learning
Really pleased to hear it.
Great environment with great people
Thank you
Amazing experience. Assisted me from day one in relation to all necessary aspects. Joined a society and was great but I’ve drifted apart from it, not because of them but myself not having the free time. Many career opportunities that can assist in my CV in future. Professors have assisted me outside of the lectures if I’ve struggled to understand some aspects as much as others, gone above and beyond.
Great to hear you had such a good time here. We have over 100 student-run societies and it's absolutely a great way to meet people with the same interests as you especially when you first start uni.
Had the best time here! Such a fun university with great facilities and great teachers. Would love to go back.
Thank you so much and as it happens we've just won an award for our teaching as we've been named The Sunday Times Good University Guide University of the Year for Teaching Quality in its 2020 edition.
Great career support from my course leaders
That's great to hear thanks
My degree is in Psychology and at Collegiate campus which had a new heart of campus building and psychology equipment.
I'm glad you've enjoyed the new heart of the campus building and benefitted from the psychology equipment. Thanks, Bridget
Legit the worst course ever. I dont know what I paid for to be honest - no support, just left to be confused by the teachers despite asking for help and support with the course, I was just left to fall further behind - meaning I couldn't focus on what I wanted to in the 3rd year. The classes were just essentially show-and-tell lessons of homework, considering it was an Animation course, we were taught nothing about how to actually animate, use the programs, or anything. Promised so much on open days: traditional pencil animation lessons, regular access to cintiqs, trips to multiple animation festivals - none were delivered except one poor trip to manchester animation festival where we returned at 1am and were left with no way to get back to our homes. I learnt nothing over 3 years, making me upset I couldn't go into a career I wanted as I had been taught nothing to be able to. I'm now at a different uni which only highlights how poor Shef Hallam was.
Hi, I'm really sorry you've had this experience and the things you were promised at open days weren't delivered. I will feedback your comments to the course leaders so they can be aware to improve for other students doing the course. I hope you have a better time at your new university and find your desired career. Thanks, Bridget
Sheffield Hallam is a great uni. Great city, great people and the best uni experience I could've wished for. First class honours and friends for life
This is lovely to hear! I'm really happy you've had a great time in the city and made friends for life. For anyone else wanting to find out more see here - https://www.shu.ac.uk/ Thanks, Bridget
I was a student for 3 years. Had no real problem. The problem was when I left. No support for graduates. I went to the careers centre many times for help and just got the same old routine. I was left to fend for myself, and still didn’t get the job I wanted. I ended up moving to a different city and enrolling somewhere else for a MA.
Hi, I'm glad you had a good time whilst being a student - but sorry you've had this experience after you left Hallam, it is always useful to hear feedback from students. Thanks, Bridget
Fantastic university, good resources and union night is brill
Hi, I'm glad you think so! For anyone else interested in finding out more - see here https://www.shu.ac.uk/ Thanks, Bridget
Good teaching and teaching facilities and lab spaces. Student union has improved somewhat. Lots of opportunities and volunteering. Library is good. Good location near city centre. Student accommodation good.
Hi, I'm glad you've hugely benefitted from a lot of what Hallam has to offer! Thanks, Bridget
Everything you need for university. You can study and have a laugh if you find the time.
Hi, I'm glad you think so and you've found the right balance between study and free time. For anyone else interested in finding out more about the university see here - Uni website Thanks, Bridget
An excellent time has been had so far and have very little negative to say
Hi, this is lovely to read :) Here's the uni website for anyone who would like to find out more https://www.shu.ac.uk/ Thank you, Bridget
There’s poor disability support, and the WiFi doesn’t reach everywhere but otherwise couldn’t recommend it more.
Hi, sorry you've had this experience with the disability support and the WiFi but also glad that everything else has been positive for you. Thanks, Bridget
Overall a very welcoming and great university. With great academic staff excellence. I gave 4 stars for the students union as it needs a lot of improvement, the actual building is quiet old and small and a good reconstruction would be a good idea. The staff are very supportive and helpful as they are eager to help students thrive in education.
Hi, I'm glad you've had a great time and felt really welcomed here. I will pass your student union feedback on as we are always looking to improve. It's brilliant you've benefitted from the supportive staff, too. Thanks, Bridget
The uni is great everyone is friendly and happy to help.
Hi, I'm happy you think so and glad you're having an enjoyable time. Thanks, Bridget
My second home. Absolutely love it!
Hi, I'm glad you love it at Hallam! For anyone else interested in finding out more about the uni - see here Thanks, Bridget
Libraries are appalling with few working computers and all slow, wifi sucks. I was a committee member for a society last year and the union was less than useless; we asked for access to a plug socket for society fair and was told we can have one so bought electronics to showcase our society only for our stall to not be further away from one so we had an empty stall which made for a great first impression and their compulsory training through the year was a waste of time. I also chose to come to uni for the jewellery and metalwork society they advertised which was disbanded by the time I arrived. Although the SU was useless, all the comittee members I met in all societies were very nice and helpful and passionate about their society. Can't comment on the careers service but I wouldn't get your hopes up if it's as bad as the rest of the uni. My course feels like they only work there for the money and do minimum effort reading off slides and don't respond to emails or aren't helpful.
Hi, sorry you've had this experience at Hallam. I will feedback to the library services about the computers and the wifi. That's a shame about the society and I understand that it must have been frustrating. I'm glad you got on well with the committee members, though. Sorry you've not had the best experience on your course, which course did you do? If you would like to contact the uni about any of these issues then feel free to on https://www.shu.ac.uk/myhallam/help-and-support Thanks, Bridget
University was one of the most important chapters of my life. I enjoyed learning as much as meeting new people and trying new things. It is great time that allows you to explore.
Hi, I'm glad you've enjoyed learning at Hallam and met some great new people. Here is some information for others who might be interested in finding out more about the uni. Thanks, Bridget

Very comfortable place to learn. I never felt out of place or intimidated. Was not part of any societies so I don’t have a comment on that.
Hi, I'm glad you've had this experience, this is lovely to hear. Thanks, Bridget

Had a amazing 3 years study at Sheffield Hallam the union facilities is the only thing that lets it down
Hi, I'm glad you've had a brilliant time at Hallam. Sorry you've felt let down by the union, we will feed this back to the team at the Student's Union. Thanks, Bridget
Very very good university with an excellent balance between maintaining a social life and getting a good degree.

No support throughout university, spent much of my time alone. Did not enjoy it one bit. Spoke to the careers advisor, appointment should’ve been 45 minutes lasted 2 minutes shocking.
Hi, I'm sorry to hear you've had these experiences at Hallam, it must be frustrating for you. Have you now graduated? Perhaps speak to the careers advisor again and explain you need some more time, we do offer support for graduates. careers@shu.ac.uk Thank you for your feedback, it is appreciated, Bridget
City campus is very nice with modern rooms. Students union has fun events on and good WiFi!
Hi, I'm glad you've benefitted from the facilities at City campus and also enjoyed the students union! Thanks, Bridget
Staff are supportive, most campus facilities are new or recently refurbished. Have joined and taken part in a wide range of societies such as Anime or Model United Nations. The Students Union itself however at time of writing is incredibly poor, however a referendum passed this academic year to attempt to resolve many of the issues, although it's building is still unfit for purpose in my opinion. Fast, Free WiFi is available throughout the University and the Careers service was invaluable to me when attempting to source a work placement.
Hi, I'm glad you've benefitted from the support from the staff and are enjoying the societies. Thank you for your comments on the students union, we welcome all types of feedback here at Hallam. Thanks, Bridget
Just finished my first year the campus is amazing as are the facilities

student union is not cheap nor comfy, can't fault the library or any of the city campus
Hi, I'm sorry you've had this experience at the student's union, it is useful to get this type of feedback to allow the union to make improvements. I'm glad you've benefitted from the library though and the other facilities at city campus. Thanks, Bridget

Hey, I am glad you've enjoyed your time at uni. What course did you do? I'm sorry you've not had the best experience with the careers service. There is support on offer for graduates, so please don't feel now you've left the support is gone.

Amazing atmosphere from people but the careers advice is shocking they just tell you to email firms which I had already done and get Linkin which already had been done. The Internet Is super quick and great. However the canteen in collegiate is EXTORTIONATE we're meant to be student
Hi, I'm happy you've benefitted from the positive atmosphere at Hallam and the speedy internet. I'm sorry you've not had the best experience with the careers service - I am sure that they will listen to your concerns if you get in touch with them again and explain your situation careers@shu.ac.uk I will feedback to the team at Collegiate about the prices, do keep looking out for deals on campus, such as £1 Wednesday. Thank you for raising this, Bridget
Brilliant experience the uni is supportive of whatever you want to do.

The university is great and is perfectly located. I think the students union could be better, but when compared to University of Sheffield which is the best in the UK, it is hard to compete.
I'm glad you've had a good experience here. Thanks, Bridget
not as good as mid cheshire collage tho
Thanks for your feedback. I hope you've had a good time at uni. Thanks, Bridget

This is lovely to hear, I'm glad you've benefitted from the support available at Hallam. Yes - everything in walking distance makes things very convenient! Thanks, Bridget :)
Univeristy is good, and the facilities are top quality and the atmosphere is nice. However as a first year I am yet to even go to the students union as there are no interesting events on and there are not many societies in comparison to some other univeristies.
Glad you've had a great experience at Hallam and taken advantage of our facilities! Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Student's Union, it's always good to hear all types of views to help us improve! Thanks, Bridget
Only thing I would change is the student Union - building is shocking and as a result nobody uses.it

It’s a fantastic place where everyone makes you feel welcome and at home.

Such an amazing uni, very social but the union and society could improve but not a big deal because there are so many things to do in Sheffield
I'm pleased you think so! And yes there are so many things to do in Sheffield to keep you entertained. Thanks, Bridget
Each building is unique, and actually really nice. Warriors American football are the best club here(and all other universities) get on it if you haven't.
I'm glad you think so, we are proud of the buildings here. That's also good to hear! Thanks, Bridget

Great uni, great experiences! City campus is starting to become a bit dated so needs work doing. Where’s the on campus Starbucks like every other uni has? Students Union is shocking compared to other universities, needs serious work
Really glad you have enjoyed your time here! Sorry about the lack of Starbucks! How could the students union improve in your view? We welcome all types of feedback so please email enquiries@shu.ac.uk with your comments, Thanks Bridget

Really appreciate with the service of university One of the best university in United Kingdom Be proud as a student of Sheffield Hallam University
This is lovely feedback to read, we are proud here of the service we provide to students! Thank you for sharing, Bridget
Would prefer if collegiate was connected to city campus
Hi, which course did you do? City and Collegiate campuses both have their benefits, one being more central and the other being in leafy green surroundings :) Thanks, Bridget
Good experience overall, could be better tho
Great to hear! We are interested in all kinds of feedback, what things could be improved here? Thanks, Bridget
This university had great facilities and very friendly and helpful staff. After graduating at hallam and doing further study at a red brick university I have realised to appreciate the good quality services found at Hallam.
Yes, we are proud of the facilities we have here at Hallam. I'm glad you've benefitted from the services here too! Thanks, Bridget
There are 2 campuses which can be a hassle. Also if you are unfamiliar with a building that you are in for a lesson it can be a pain to find where it is as the campus is lots of different buildings. This is due to the nameing and numbers used to lable rooms etc is not very easy to understand. Seems to be many of clubs and socitiew and the socities are always activly present in the city with nights out and fundraisers etc. Students Union is quite small and not commonly used by students. There is lots of room for improvement especially compared to many other student unions i have visited. Careers service offer lots of resource to aid placement getting, part time job getting and cv building. For my experience they have been great. Internet and wifi can sometimes be a hassle to connect to and you need help to connect the first time.
Hi, thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you've had a brilliant experience with the careers service and I hope it has helped for your future. It is also good to hear that the societies are active in the city. Sorry to hear you've had trouble with navigating the campuses and that you've had difficulty connecting to the internet on occasions. As a university, including the students union, we are open to feedback so if you would like to email enquiries@shu.ac.uk your comments we can look at ways to improve. Thanks, Bridget
It’s a really nice, modern and cosy homely feel to it and it made feel very welcome during my first few weeks.
Hi, I'm glad you've had a positive experience at Hallam and it has felt like home for you! Thanks, Bridget
If you’re serious about university, dont go to this joke of a uni. Could easily teach yourself this s*** and the lecturers aren’t anything special so save yourself 9 grand a year
Hi, sorry you've had this experience at Hallam. What course did you do/are you doing? What was the problem with the lecturers? Did you not receive enough support from them? We welcome all feedback and are happy to talk in more detail about how we can help resolve this. Contact us here Thanks, Bridget
Great, cheap accomodation. Really good induction week with lots of activities to help students make friends. Overall the uni has a great community feel and is really welcoming and friendly. Sheffield is a lovely city too with great (cheap!!!) night life.
Hi, thanks for this! I'm glad you've had a brilliant time here and made the most of the activities. We are proud of the community we've created at Hallam and I'm happy you're benefitting from exploring the city too! Bridget

This is great feedback to hear! I'm glad you are enjoying your course. We're proud of the support we give to our students. Thanks, Bridget
Love it here! Value for money and the facilities they provide make up for the hefty tuition fee (24 hr library and brilliant SU!)
This is great to hear! I'm glad you've had a good experience :) Bridget
Been a quality uni I'm loving the facilities. The library is particularly on point and I love the ability to take laptops home for people who don't have any
I'm happy you've had a brilliant experience at Hallam, and glad that the library has fulfilled your needs! Bridget
Not the best not the worst, a great student support network with plenty of career and accommodation advice along with some lovely staff.
Thanks for your review - I'm glad you've benefitted from the support at Hallam and met our supportive staff! Bridget
The campus has everything you need. The internet and wifi is always good, it's fast. Haven't used the student Union so I can't comment on that. Same for the clubs and societies.

Amazing experience from start to finish meeting new people and building new relationships. The staff and tutors are great special praise for the criminology and policing lectures.
This is lovely to hear! Our tutors strive to be supportive and helpful, good luck with your future career.
Love this uni, it is so welcoming and all of the staff are willing to help. The campus and facilities are incredible and all first rate.
Glad you're having an awesome time here and making the most of the facilities. I feel we have a good balance with our campuses, of city life and green spaces! Thanks, Bridget
Pretty decent uni, I’m a nursing student and the facilities are great. The labs are in top shape and the campuses are nice ☺️
Good luck with your nursing degree, it must be such a rewarding profession! I'm glad you're making the most of the labs and facilities. Yeah Collegiate Campus is great isn't it! Thanks, Bridget
I have spent 4 years at Sheffield Hallam University for my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees and would recommend Hallam to anyone. Great facilities, interesting course structure and a strong sense of belonging and pride.
Hi, I'm glad you had a lovely time here, and that you feel a strong sense of belonging and pride- this is something we are really proud of here at Hallam. Thanks, Bridget
Sheffield Hallam don’t like to put their hands in their pockets; no do they like to give credits to students who actually work hard for the duration of their studies. If you want to have to take time off work/out of your further studies to have your graduation, it’s the perfect uni. With graduation in November because they don’t want to have to pay to rent out the city hall in summer. Then when you get to graduation they fail to give credit to the students who have the highest grade overall on their course (wasn’t me so I’m not being bias). It was good when I was there and it’s fair to say I had fun. But now I’ve moved on I can see the areas in which they fail to consider what students want over how much it will cost.
I'm sorry you've had this experience at Hallam, please can you elaborate on "nor do they like to give credits to students who actually work hard for the duration of their studies"? How would this look? I will give this feedback about failing to give credit to highest grade students at graduation to the alumni team so they can address this and make improvements for the future. I'll also let them know about the difficulties some people face with a graduation ceremony in November. I'm glad you had fun when you were here! Thanks, Bridget
Love my uni! All the lecturers are very friendly and the facilities are amazing especially for nursing
Hi, this is lovely feedback to read - I am glad you are loving the experience here! Good luck with your studies and future career. Thanks, Bridget

Hi, I'm really glad you love it at Hallam and that you feel at home here, sense of place and belonging is something we strive for so it is lovely to hear this feedback. Merry Christmas! Bridget
Started a new course, to find the course tutor had lied about certain things so students would join. Which now means I will have to restart a new course next year. Awful uni.
Hi, sorry you've had this experience at Hallam, which course did you originally start? And are you doing a totally different course next year? I can feedback this information to the staff so this doesn't happen again. I hope your experience going forwards is better. Thanks, Bridget
I really enjoy this uni and feel like I learn a lot on my course
I'm glad you are enjoying uni life and you are learning a lot from your course. This is lovely feedback to receive. Thanks, Bridget

It is a very good uni with a lot of good people who are willing to help you no matter if that’s with work or personal life.

I'm glad you've found the career service useful and made the most of our facilities! We've recently revamped the careers centre, find out more here. Bridget
Amazing experience that has led to amazing opportunities.
Awesome news! I'm pleased that Hallam has helped you on your journey! Bridget
Sheffield Hallam has everything you need. The annoying part is that they now have a no printing policy but otherwise it’s brilliant.
I'm glad you're enjoying your time at Hallam. Sorry about any inconvenience casued by the no printing policy, why have you found this annoying? I will feedback to the department about this. Bridget
Best 3 years with the most comforting and reassuring institute. Truly a home away from home
This is lovely feedback to hear! It's always nice to hear that our students feel at home in Sheffield. Bridget
My experience so far has been great, there is so much support for anything you could think of .
Thanks for this feedback, it is lovely to hear. Bridget
Excellent in most aspects, the only thing that isn’t as great is the student union. The entire uni experience here is amazing
Hey, this is brilliant to read! I'm sorry you haven't had the best experience at our Student's Union, though. Feel free to provide them with your feedback by emailing here Thanks! Bridget
Could’t have asked for a better uni
This is great to hear! I'm glad you're having a brilliant time here :) Bridget

I'm happy you've enjoyed your experience as a Hallam Ranger! Bridget
Great sport analysis facilities and great location
I'm glad you've benefitted from the sport analysis facilities at Hallam! Bridget
Love love love life here! Facilities are amazing and course leaders are so friendly and happy to help. Other student resources are amazing and allow you to achieve the best while at SHU!
This is excellent feedback to receive! I'm glad you're having a great time and your course leaders are supporting you all the way. For anyone wanting to find out more about Hallam see our website , Bridget
I was so anxious about coming to university but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Even though I’ve only been here for two months I can whole heartedly say they have been two of the best months of my life and i expect it to continue. I am so glad that I chose to come to Hallam
Hi, this is great to hear, I'm glad you are having the best time here. :) Here's our website for anyone else who's interested in Hallam! Bridget
Hallam hallam hallam, give it to me
Amazing uni, amazing city, amazing support, and facilities
Hi, I'm glad you've had a brilliant time here! It is great to hear feedbcak like this. For anyone thinking of going to Hallam, here is our website. Bridget
Reyt good uni. Proper Yorkshire place
Awesome! Yes it is indeed. I'm glad you've had the best time here. Bridget
Sheffield Hallam is an overall good university although it has a lot of room for improvement
Sheffield Hallam offers vibrant learning environment in one the UKs best city's for students. The courses are well run and there is lots to choose from + Louis Therouix got a doctorate from here. When you're not studying there is plenty to do for everyone, especially if you are outdoorsy lite myself.
Sheffield Hallam University has been a great experience for me, catering for everything I could ever need, there is always something (a service or a club) that fits exactly what I’m looking for. I would highly recommend going to Hallam
Amazing university with fantastic facilities and student support #HallamRanger
Amazing. I loved my time at SHU
Terrible student support, don’t stick to learning contracts, unhelpful to harmful student support officers and little to no financial support, and little disabled student support
The experiences at Hallam are phenomenal as I have never experienced in my life! Like going to Iceland. Hallam has wonderful staff on your course and help you as much as they can! It is truly the best place to go !
When going through a really tough time during exam period last year the wellbeing team were absolutely amazing! I wouldn't have made it through the end of the year without them. Having never registered with the wellbeing team I came to Colliegate campus needing help as I was experiencing a very serious personal problem. The staff there got me in contact with the wellbeing team immediately and paid for a taxi for me to get to an available appointment on time. I cannot express how much I appreciate what they did for me. I've never received this kind of help from anywhere I've studied/worked.
The uni is good and the tutors are very helpful and act like they really want to help. My only negatives are a lot of the services offered at the university are often very slow and sometimes don’t help and also lots of the sport societies have awful rules and tricks they play on freshers to bully and intimidate them.
Great place to study with fantastic opportunities on offer
Sheffield Hallam was instantly preferred for me when looking round other universities and I have settled into it extremely easy
A brilliant uni in the Heart of the City centre. So much support and funding offered with a lot of guidance and encouragement to get experience alongside studies. Great resources.
I like there is WiFi, vending machine, microwave, card machine, train ticket machine and keetle at the main campuses! I really SHU
Very well organised and students are taught practical skills rather than just academic
Being at Sheffield Hallam has expanded so many horizons for me. The learning experience is fantastic and so is the night life. There are so many extra curricular to get involved in and so many ways to enhance your CV. There’s so many opportunities for you to get involved in. Sadly the Student Union isn’t that great but there’s so much to do in Sheffield that it doesn’t matter too much.
I love Sheffield Hallam, there is so much of a community spirit and so many events! If you’re not into ‘stereotypical’ uni societies, there is definitely something still for you! I feel so safe on campus and wouldn’t change my uni experience for the world, the facilities are amazing too!
An amazing university where you feel right at home! Staff are lovely and the buildings are modern. I have had a lovely 3 years here!
Simply amazing, I don’t know what else to say, the ratings say it all
Great uni, nice environment and nice people,
The university has provided me with really good friends and life experiences.
Partly to blame on me not focusing on my studies however when I resat some assignments I didn't find out if I had actually passed until mid September by which time I had actually been sent a timetable for the full year and was recieving emails from lectures about field studies and reading lists which prompted me that I had passed and had moved into a flat and signed a 10 month lease. Turns out I hadn't passed and so I either had to re-enroll and retake the year or drop out. After a mental debate I decided I didn't want to be part of an institution that didn't help it's students, due to me dropping out I had no student finance backing and had to try find someone to take on my flat lease, which the uni wouldn't help with whatsoever. In the end I've ended up having to set up a payment plan and have been paying off the debt monthly due to a mistake on my behalf of not studying and the amazing admin skills of the Sheffield Hallam University faculty.
The student union is in a poor location and no reason to go there
Good uni with good facilities and happy with the course leaders
Great uni overall, just with there were more societies. Although you can set up your own
I’ve not yet found a single fault with Sheffield Hallam and I Have loved every minute of my time here. My bank account thinks otherwise
Very good facilities, lecturers and atmosphere
Absolutely loved my experience at Hallam!
Good but it is difficult to find a job
Really great university. Really accommodting to individuals.
Very good university feels like home
Lovely campus with friendly staff
Utterly lovely collegate campus. Everyone so helpful and guiding. Staff are good with directs. Shame the RWB doesnt have microwave/ kettle for dinner facilites unlime the HOTC but can make do
Good university but could be better
Worst uni! Don’t go here worst decision of my life
The whole university is amazing
Great university with modern campuses and loads to do in a city great for students
Lovely open campus with many areas to chill and do work. Facilities are great.
Honestly so welcoming, easy to get around, always places to sit, eat, socialise
The Uni offers a wide range of things to do so you are always busy and that the accomdiation is always cheaper. Hallam till i die
Very sociable Amazing tutors Good interior design
Great university environment, near town centre makes it the best
Dont really involve you with anything or give you any information about things.
Good university but mismanagement issues sometimes.
I can happily say that Sheffield Hallam is a great university. Pros: - Good range of courses. - lecturers/doctors that have solid experience in their fields. - Very close to town centre which is incredibly useful. - Decent student union with some fantastic societies. - big bonus at least on my course is the option of paid work experience for a year which a lot of unis don't offer. Cons: - 1 of my lecturers was garbage and I was better off just catching up from lecture notes, not ideal. - labs (at least computer labs) are a bit dated compared to some of the more prestigious unis. - feedback on work is oftentimes not very insightful. Don't let the cons put you off, I had to really pick my head to think of some. It's a fantastic university oftentimes gets a lot of stick for having to many students that focus on nights out more than their studies. If you crack on you'll love it!
Sheffield Hallam is a great university, it has multiple building all of which have good facilities.
Sometimes okay, sometimes not okay. But mostly okay.
Really great and welcoming university. After just completing my first year studying Sociology I couldn't be happier that I chose SHU; all the lectures are really supportive, friendly and approachable. The course is relevant and topical where it can be and this is futher supported by the fact that SHU has a large number of lecturers that are active in their field of study. I've made plenty of good friends whilst studying here and am looking forward to 2nd and 3rd year.
Far too much group work integrated into the course. Wish I'd chose another university.
Decent. Not bad. Could be better.
I am not the best example of an active member of the university but I know it's all there. I think there could be improvements to how people can get information about societies etc after fresher's fair because if you don't attend that circus I honestly don't think they offer other avenues apart from online. So try and be braver than me to make the most of what is on offer and attend as many of the fairs as you can.
Great central location for uni, lots of help available if required and lots of clubs to get involved with.
Good facilities and you’ll find everything you’d possibly need to learn. WiFi is extremely awkward to connect to
Student Union barely bothered with our course, other than the Nursing Society team, more bothered with playing rugby than supporting students? Academic support from University is great though. Collegiate Campus is a great place to study.
Sheffield Hallam was the perfect choice, I wouldn't have rather have picked anywhere else! It's a very sociable university that promotes having fun and making as many friends as you can throughout your time there, whilst supporting your studies to ensure you achieve the highest possible degree you can. Sheffield Hallam also has evert facility you may need during your degree. There's a club/society for absolutely every past-time/sport. Varsity is the biggest sporting event of the year and is fun for everyone to get involved in (even if you don't play sport!). Friends from all other unis come to watch the Ice Hockey that completes the Varsity event, which is followed by an epic night out where everyone from both unis (Hallam and Uni of) enjoy together. It's location is perfect for students, centre of the city and close to everything! Everything is within walking distance from each other, making it the perfect choice!
Some students here are chilled out, interesting, clever and mature whereas some still act as if they are 15 years old and have only just discovered what drinking is... anyway, it’s a beautiful little city and the uni is modern, full of life and welcoming. Not too far from Uni of Sheffield so it’s easy to mingle with students in both uni’s. It’s a really chilled out place to study, you make it what you will of it! The friends I’ve made here are exactly like me and we’ve found a lovely little cafe/restaurant by the Graves Art Gallery where we chill out and then there’s all sorts of really cute pubs and vintage shops that we spend our weekends at. I moved to Sheffield with my boyfriend and we’ve found some gorgeous little restaurants and date places. There’s so much to do in sheffield! Definitely check it out, Sheffield Hallam is definitely worth it - lots of interesting people, the teaching is absolutely brilliant and the help services are there to help with everything.
My experience at Hallam was awful, I had several lectures that were rude and very unhelpful and I was denied help from a couple of them on several occasions. Some of the building are very fun down and even dirty. I felt very alone through out my time at Hallam and left feeling very low and had lost all my confidence.
Sheffield Hallam is a great uni but have areas that could be improved. As a disabled student talking to the disabilty support in a drop in session is like talking to a brick wall and they don't know what they are doing as it took me 3 months to get support after apprently sorting it out in may.
Fantastic university, cannot fault! Best decision I made and I’m so glad I stayed on. They have helped me in many ways and not just academically. Staff are all lovely and completely helpful
nice it being centre of town. staff really helpful
Enrolment process completely shambolic even when I had all the documentation and DBS check in advance. No proper induction. No support services for PGCE students available outside of school hours. No willingness to resolve major issues with placements. Then someone decided not to mark my last assignment despite it being submitted correctly and on time so I can't even get academic credits. SHU have wasted a year of my life and £9k. AVOID
Sheffield is a great city,with loads to offer
Sheffield Hallam is a very poor university if I could go back and choose my uni's I would avoid this place at all costs! Lecturers are terrible and not supportive in the slightest whilst the actual facilities shockingly poor. However, the nightlife in Sheffield is really good as are the societies. Sheffield itself is a lovely place to live and is inexpensive. I recommend the city but not Sheffield Hallam University!
Absolutely Unprofessional! My academic transcript clearly showed my dissertation score. Nevertheless, they didn't bother looking at it and they wrote to me that my application wasn't sufficiently completed. I replied and explained how to find it. Yet, they ignored my reply, never got it back to me, never made an apology for their negligence. Avoid this educational institution guys! Several better universities for us to apply.
Really enjoy coming to uni here. The staff are so helpful and so nice. The facilities in the newer buildings are better than the older ones but that is to be expected.
Nice campus, a bit of rivalry with (the better) Uni of Sheffield. I didn't realise that this uni had a bad-ish reputation otherwise I would have picked something else as I had the grades to. It seems like Hallam get all their students through clearing as many that I've talked to didn't get the grades required to get in
Sheffield Hallam is a great, fun university which runs a lot of social events.
An amazing uni. Would definitely recommend it.
The campus is very modern and big. The wifi is okay good and bad in places. The library is amazing!!
All of the above are great albeit far away from each other. If you have any lessons or lectures in collegiate then good luck travelling from there all the way to city campus.
Brilliant student union and support services
Lovely university staff are always friendly and helpful
Love going to Sheffield Hallam. Great uni, friendly people. Student union isnt that great, however, you have access to the Uni of Sheffield students union so win win.
Awful internet in Hallam, good facilities nothing special
FREE WIFI EVERYWHERE ON CAMPUS THAT'S PRETTY DECENT. YAAAAAAAY.
Brilliant campus!! But I would recommend better wifi connection for next year
Love Sheffield Hallam, loads going on and always new opportunities to further studies
The University provides students with lots of free connections to training materials and courses from professional websites that are useful for supporting a student when working on their degree, they also have many high end computers and advanced facilities related to computing and games development in particular. The student union is not very large but it is quite active and many societies exists that students can join - I was not a member of any particular society The career service was very good at providing students with connections and opportunities available in many companies looking to hire either graduates or students for a placement year. The University's internet service is very reliable and speedy.
Sheffield Hallam University has plenty of campus' for each subject and has loads of friendly staff and people there. Everyone is really helpful and there's always plenty of activities to take part in.
The problem with SHU is, no-one really wants to be there. SHU's academic rating is so low, it's likely a hindrance to your career to admit working there... so staff leave at any opportunity. All that seem to be left are incompetents. IT services were laughable ... no exaggeration, 1 day out of 8 they just wouldn't work; disinterested admin staff making the most basic tasks impossible; the facilities were all poorly managed and geared around making money from you ... but the 'academics'?! They'd be absent, they'd just leave (no fewer than 3 lecturers left from my course alone in 1 year), they'd be ... incoherent (the head of my department had such poor English they were indecipherable) or, frankly, stupid - their notes often made no sense of were factually ... like a_quick_Google_from_my_phone, factually *wrong* Nice people and Sheffield itself has loads to be proud of - but SHU (not to be confused with Secure Housing Unit in prison) was a waste of 2 years and 7 grand
Huge range of societies up for offer. SU is quite small. Free Wifi everywhere.
Its all based in convenient places and the libraries are spacious
overall a good uni with great facilities and a fantastic city
Great uni over all, union food is brilliant
Joining a society is the best thing you can do to make friends and have fun
I loved being at uni ,met some great people and I hope to come across them in the future.will miss the nightlife in sheff.
Printing is way too expensive for £9K a year... very good facilities, careers service is really useful, the SU is tiny compared to others and the drinks aren't very cheap (may as well go to a pub), food at uni is quite expensive, like nearly 3 quid for a sandwich, staff are friendly and supportive. Language classes are available to students but cost a lot. Not a very big range of societies to choose from compared to other universities. City centre location is excellent, very difficult to park anywhere that's cheap though
Nice university, campuses very good. Sheffields clubs aren't brilliant though
Shu space and Internet down multiple times, no bins in women's toilet cubicles
Well trained and informative staff
Need to be more open and larger choice on clubs or society or even just to be promoted more
Facilities are excellent and the student union is great accommodating for everyone. However the only downfall is the Lecturers, some of which show no enthusiasm and may as well not be there.
Really nice place and very organised. Facilities are great
Lovely modern friendly university. Very helpful support staff and great facilities. The only downside being is the lack of use the student union gets!
really great university, couldn't imagine being anywhere else
Sept 2015 cohort. Informative lectures, great teaching staff, good facilities including cashless system, supportive and decent nightlife
great nightlife even better academic support
Nice and modern city campus with a great social vibe about it, high variety of learning facilities and a great SU to suit.
Very little green space was my first reaction. There are a lot of clubs to join but the bar at the SU is pretty poor beside from on quiz night when there is not a seat in the building. The library is large and very confusing, books for my subject where dotted about on all different floors and places. The library is open 24/7 which does really help and there are many different working areas for different needs.
Great uni, having a brilliant time
The aren't that many societies that aren't course or sports related
Really like the uni and facilities etc. The wifi doesn't work on campus and the lifts can be quite slow but it is a great uni to study at.
Overall good experience so far but disappointed with the clubs and societies on offer.
The campus has both a modern but timed look to it, and is in a good condition
Really nice buildings, well laid out.
Fresher's week is crazy with free stuff being thrown at you, the City Campus has a number of places to eat all of which are great value, The union bar is very nice but it's a shame it's not open on Sundays.
The uni itself is fantastic, almost everything they offer helps you improve your employability. The library is fantastic and accommodates all types of students, quiet or loud or groups, for any kind of project. Essay writing, group posters, silent reading; whatever you want to do, you can do in the Sheffield Hallam Library. Also the automated renting system is fantastically impressive.
Only visited the campus a few times so far but nice and modern, can't date other facilities as not yet used then
I enjoy the university. I am at collegiate campus which is really nice and every where is easy to find, not to intimidating like other universities and campuses. Great to find cheap food nearby and things to do. However, the library is far too small for a university and the food they sell at the campus is expensive (to say they are supposed to be accommodating for students). Could be better.
Love Sheffield Hallam university, the people, the city.. everything. would definitely recommend joining a club or society in first year to make as much friends as possible because it can get quite lonely if you limit yourself to your flat.
I have really loved my three years at Sheffield Hallam. It's a lovely, friendly university, which has challenged me and encouraged me to succeed!
Everything is really good at the university. I am based at collegiate campus doing a sport course. The only let downs were although I went to the sport society opening. It was a bit packed and struggled to find what I was looking for.
Great Uni, could do with a few more computers and the student health centre is very very bad at getting back to me at appointments.
I've not been to the clubs and societies, but people that i know who have say that they're really good. I also haven't yet used the wifi there, but people do use tablets and laptops in seminars and lectures and they haven't complained yet! I'm in love with the uni, it's a great place and has a lot to offer, especially since the library is huge, theres plenty of resources you can use.
So glad I came Hallam as the experience I've had is so far been amazing I'm so glad I've carried on with my sport as if I didn't I wouldn't of made such amazing people. All facilities are kept so well and looked after on both campus
Glad I chose this uni over my other choices. Not the best uni in the world, but it's better than most other uni's in the country. I'd definitely recommend them.
I love Sheffield Hallam University. Although it is not a campus uni, the university building are all very close together, and are right in the centre of Sheffield making a short trip into town very easy. My main fault with the uni would be the students union as it is not a very big building and does not advertise many events, activities etc. too well.
Absolutely adore the uni, and the city itself
Don't regret my decision to attend Hallam, great university in a great city
Sheffield Hallam is a great university in an exciting city. From my time there I have found my course to be really interesting and engaging and there are plenty of options to learn more about what interests you. Hallam has a placement year option available for almost every course making sure you are an employable graduate by the time you leave. There is a dedicated careers and employability centre and lots of events and talks throughout the year to provide students with the relevant information and contacts they need to get where they want to be in industry. There's loads of great sports facilities and even our own Sportspark. I have enjoyed my time at Sheffield Hallam so much and I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Hallam has been great! If you live in sheffield then you will know the hallam v uni of rivalry. I personally got the grades for uni of and still chose hallam. I study languages with TESOL and the course seemed more suited to me as I could base my languages around teaching and it also gives me the option of spending 18 months abroad where I would only have had a year at uni of. The uni is pretty relaxed, they won't chase you if you're not turning up to things so you just need to take that responsibility and you'll be fine! The uni is very sociable and there is always many nights out(it's normally hard deciding where you want to go on a night out as there's normally a couple of club/student nights on each day) the location is great as it's in the city centre and very close to everything. I've not had to once a bus at all. Student union only has a bar which does an awesome smart phone quiz on a Monday but there's that many student nights it's not an issue at all.
Teachers are great plus careers advice Is amazing
Love the WiFi connection & my teachers
Its OK I guess but students union is the best part
I love the city and course Not to mention my tutors rock
Not a bad place for my postgraduate degree. Good teachers
Thank You To My Teacher Rachel For Making My Learning worthwhile
Great facility and I can't wait to graduate.
I really like the university & my course however I would like there to be more musical activities available @ the students union
Hallam is alright. There should be a part to rate the organisation of the university i.e. admin etc... because that has been TERRIBLE in my experience. But if you take away the lack of organisation then my experience at Sheffield Hallam has been completely positive.
I absolutely love studying at Sheffield Hallam (even if the Students' Union is a bit rubbish!) because the campus is modern, has great facilities and is located right near the city centre.
The support network for final year students is outstanding. I feel confident in being able to access the support that I need while I have the opportunity to engage in fantastic programmes including student socials, societies and academic support.
The course is unorganised and I don't receive the full education I am paying for but the other services are good.
An amazing experience I have loved every minute and would recommend this university proudly!
With a library open 24/7 all year round, a massive range of sports and societies and lecturers that will always make time for you, I would definitely recommend this university to all.
Sheffield Hallam University is a great place to study. It has a fantastic range of courses to choose from. The lecturers are supportive. The halls of residence are located in a lovely part of the city near to the campus. It is an inexpensive place to live. The amenities and nightlife offer many opportunities to socialise and make friends. There are many parks and green areas and it is next to the Peak District National Park. The people are friendly too.
