I had a great experience studying at the Information School. The academic staff were friendly and supportive throughout my entire MSc degree.

The University of Sheffield is a public research university in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It received its royal charter in 1905 as successor to the University College of Sheffield, which was established in 1897 by the merger of Sheffield Medical School, Firth College and Sheffield Technical School
University of Sheffield is awesome. I've studied at three universities and Sheffield uni is the best by far. The best educational experience of my life!
Everything was good really enjoyed the University
Best uni hands down. Everyone else is in denial
Great university through and through
great city and great university
Very satisfied about all the facilities!
The wifi in Diamond is quite bad. Can't really do much

To find out what us students at UoS get up to (supposedly), look up our confessions page, Sheffessions, if only to laugh at our drama.
Facilities are great, various services are pretty helpful in all ways. Academically though, would not recommend the School of East Asian Studies at all really.
Very friendly environment, amazing service from both stuff and students
Great town, fantastic history department, excellent facilities, some of the best times of my life!
I think that Sheffield is pretty cool and I suggest you come chill here
amazing uni, amazing nightlife, loads of societies, plus its a russel group

The student union & societies make it extremely worthwhile going to Uni of Sheffield.
Its the bets uni!!!I love it!!!!
the best uni in the whole of the U.K. All my friends who come n visit agree
Best exam facilities in the world
Lovely uni and are very helpful. There are so many opportunities given by the su and they support you so much in those roles
Couldn’t ask for more from my university experience
Amazing inclusive and forward thinking uni
Wifi in ranmoor is a bit trash, but everywhere else its much better, Student union is the best, has pretty much everything you need as a student.
Has a great focus on student life and satisfaction, with an incredible academic reputation and great support.
Amazing Uni, great student experience, great facilities, great career prospects, an amazing city that's just the right size... there's nowhere I'd rather be
Quality atmosphere, as a medical student I think the teaching could improve. Student life is decent and there's always a sick night out.
MORE Libraries they are all full during exam season!!!
Lots of events! Just been to the colour run and it is fascinating!
Great Uni offering lots of study space. Awesome staff and even better students. Stunning localisation, great place to do sports or to join one of hundreds societies.
My first year at University of Sheffield has been nothing short of amazing in terms of the quality of Education we have been given, support from tutors, and the facilities available. I had high expectations for the Student Union, given it was ranked #1 in the UK for the past 10 years, and I was not disappointed.
Fantastic Uni! Friendly people, friendly staff. So many opportunities and clubs to get involved in and reach your full potential!!
Amazing university with great facilities and lovely people. Fantastic city and peak district is incredible.
THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD IS A WORLD RENOWNED ACADEMIC CENTRE THAT IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE TOPS IN SEVERAL AREAS OF EDUCATION
the best uni ive been to across the country for sports and nightlife
Best student's union of the decade
Amazing campus, such a vibrant city and overall great uni.
The uni is great but the wifi is just like all my acquaintances, lasts no more than a few minutes.
There are many opportunities, good accommodation, very nice place to be. Also even though it's a city uni, everything is close together which gives it a somewhat campus feel.
Itense work but a good laugh. Don’t make the mistake of not joining any societies or sports like I did because you will end up with no mates lol
Amazing, fantastic, mind blowing!
Best choice in University, love the community feel I get here and the nightlife and city is amazing
Excellent university!! I actually cannot imagine myself going to a different one!!! The only reason 4 star for facilities is the 1st year accommodation is a mile away
This is a great university in the north of England.
very good univeristy and i would recommend it to all
Perfect. One of the best 100 universities in the world
good place to study and make friends
Some departments are better than others
Alright uni but i get the feeling that if you dont do ket or like drum&bass you'll never truly belong
Probably the worst 6 months of my life were spent at this uni. Accomodation was sterile and desperately lonely. Course was academically competent but isolated. I found myself unable to establish a decent friendship groups given lectures of 200+ students and seminars with different people everytime. Support I got from the SU and other university facilities was blunt and largely unhelpful. Nightlife here, though plentiful, is horrendously overrated and outside of the university faciliites the city depressing at best. Avoid.
Some degrees make more use of the facilities than others, so can't really comment on how good they are but the Wifi seems strong no matter where you are
I'm a current undergrad student who was excited to look into Sheffiled for graduate opportunities. I sent a list of questions to the admission coordinators and not only did I not get answers from one, although they attempted to schedule a skype call (which was rescheduled), as my list was "huge", but they continued to send surprisingly unprofessional emails or not getting back to me claiming that answering my email wouldn't be "logical". I am understanding that my inquiries may have been exhaustive and that they are very busy but I reached out to multiple universities and never had as much issue. I was made to feel that my inquiries were not important which is surprising considering you'd think they'd want international students. For anyone concerned, the department in question was the Urban Studies and Planning school.
BY FAR THE BEST STUDENTS' UNION IN THE UK
Sheffield uni is an amazingly friendly environment with lots of exciting things to get involved in and great academic and social support
Everyone is so lovely and the facilities are amazing!! The uni as a whole is super super good and the city is perfect for a student...did anybody say £5 round???
Best campus but needs faster internet.
Awesome uni, love every minute of it
Everyone should consider Sheffield, it's been a great place to be a student
Great university, best place to be!
A university bursting with culture, diversity and community spirit, best Uni ever!
Amazing support from staff.They help you with you CV amd keep you up to date with all the new opportunities. The SU is incredible ,so many soxities and organizmsation to join in order to learn nee things and meet new people
Poor teaching quality (Archaeology department). Sub-par pastoral care. Abysmal resources (Archaeology department). Hostile student population that can, and have gotten violent. Riddled with strikes and other disruptive events.
Really good place to study and live
Very inclusive and had some of my favourite first year memories at the union club nights
Fantastic Facilities, brilliant staff.
Sheffield University is one of the best unis in the UK, they offer great courses and also care about student welfare as much as education
A lovely environment with friendly, helpful staff
Great first year. Really good student experience
Very welcoming university with great people and groundbreaking research!
Very good uni with amazing facilities
Great time, great place, great people
Amazing university with an fabulous range if facilities and societies that are supported by the students uniin. Overall an amazing place to study
Can’t complain everything I could ever want is here and if I don’t think it is I send out an email and I am given a close replacement!
Where great research, great experiences and an excellent location combine with knowledgeable and compassionate staff to bring an overall fantastic experience.
Fantastic environment. Perfect for anyone looking to grow up and become truly independent.
I’ve just graduated and I’m gutted to be leaving sheff! Absolute best 3 years in the best uni city!
Everything about my university is great apart from my actual course. I found Japanese Studies to be quite a nightmare and that only the strong seem to survive in the East Asian Studies Department. I’ve requested to change course to Korean next year, and if I want to survive, I guess I’ll have to become a workaholic.
I would recommend going to Sheffield University to anyone. It's where I have the good balance of an excellent academic life woth inspirational lecturers to get smashed at the weekends and having a laugh at the pub. I love the city and love the uni! I will forever look back on my years as the best years of my life
Great school factolies are good Eli
Great school factolies are good Eli
Very glad to go to Uni of Sheffield
In a great city with a lot of choice of social activities and fantastic teaching
Best university ever a Russell group in a city that literally caters for all individual music tastes.
An excellent university with amazing facilities and friendly staff
Good. SU is the best in the country, city is friendly and the nightlife is fantastic.
Atmosphere is relaxed and fun, students union is right to claim to be the best, society's range from elitist and inaccessible to so relaxed they barely do anything
Really, really bad if you're disabled and/or LGBT+. Not only are many of the staff LGBT+ phobic, but they are against "excuses" in regards to disability. There are very few policies that allow disabled students to have kind of alternate learning. Many university buildings are not accessible. The university health service has consistently neglected my disability despite me making appointments each month to ask for help. I would not recommend this university to anyone.
Never come to this university for Phd and Masters. I Have suffered so much and dropped out in PhD. It was my mistake to trust them when was not happy in masters. Low quality of teaching in masters and not trust in PhD supervisors. Overall it has got a sick academic and staff environment. It has got amazing Student Union but my main aim was the quality of my degree not clubs and etc. then there is no point to rank them. Many PhDs have suffered so far with a poor relationship with their supervisors in this university. so many trustworthy supervisors are leaving the university as well. Be very careful. Just teens and bachelors with native languages are happy.
Well my cousin was here for work and lets just say that they are very disorganized. He now wants to share his experience.
Extremely well organised and accommodating university with very fair and flexible administration. Top quality teaching and graduate opportunities with links to industry leading companies. The best disability services of any university.
Awesome place, people and excellent Wifi and Great feel all round. Don't miss the Tuesday club!
One of the best Unions in the country with so much going on. Great facilities including media rooms, cafes, labs, WiFi, new study spaces.
tuesday club is a fun night out library is good but not enough seats
Speak to almost any University of Sheffield student (both past and current) and they will tell you that Sheffield is the perfect place to be a student, and that Sheffield University is a great university (good resources/teaching/reputation). However, I write from the perspective of a graduate who went to the university having attended an international school in Brussels, and being of half Italian descent. My personal experience of Sheffield was dreadful. I found the students to be very insular/English in nature, not accommodating at all to those of us who had grown up in other non-British contexts. I would say the majority of students there (however bright and successful on an academic level) where culturally typically 'British' and knew nothing outside of Middle/provincial England. The type of attitude which views anything across the Channel as being 'foreign' and therefore inferior. I would urge anyone from my background NOT to choose this uni.
Wasn’t even my first choice uni but wouldn’t change coming here for the world!! Amazing facilities and perfect location on the edge of Sheffield City Centre. Loads of support given by staff too.
Offers an amazing sense of community where you can take part in Residence life sport activities and social events.
Good library service: 4 libraries on campus and online resources are great (most of the books can be read online)
It was really good i love sheffield, especially sheffield 3 accommodation
Most buildings are located ideally and not too far away from one another. The union provides a good place to hang around during breaks or in between classes with good food and good environment
A uni with many social and curricular activities provided!
Amazing teaching and learning environment with an ultramodern engineering building! Couldn't have chosen a better place to study!
Friendly, Peace and Calm environment.
Students' Union is too militant, but campus is nice in the city and everything else is great.
Very nice Students Union, a wide array of societies to join and a lot of facilities ready to be put to use. Eduroam is awful though.
Everything except the course is fine. As an MA student and experiencing then uni for the first time, I had high expectations. I have received little help from a tutor who EMAILED me to tell me to change classes even though the other MA students had the same grades as me. I was then told in my second semester a module I had been allowed to take was actually not permitted, so my timetable clashes could not be altered and if I wished to continue the module, I would have to miss the main of the two classes and basically teach myself. Compared to my much smaller, nowhere near as highly acclaimed former university, I have found my overall studying experience very dissapointing and stressful.
Had a really bad experience and haven't enjoyed my time
I am doing a masters course here and hate it! Buildings are miserable, cold and unwelcoming.. teachers are rude and I struggle to understand their English... Everything (including tuition) is overpriced.... There are not enough facilities for the number of students (in class/labs/computers in library)... The location is dismal... and to top it all off, the course material is useless unless you want to work within the university after (it only teaches things specific to the universities specialisms, at least in science).
Brilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
Great University! The staff is great!
Firstly - so many interesting societies! Also I think possibly the best Union nights out of any uni? Make sure you look beyond Plug and Pop Tarts and you'll see that Sheffield nightlife is actually pretty damn good. Ah, and who could forget the sustainability library? Once you start looking, you realise there is so much to explore here.
Wonderful place to read and educate with superior teaching staff
I have loved everything about the University of Sheffield so far. I can't explain what it is that makes it such an enjoyable experience, but I don't wake up dreading the idea of University the way I did with college or high school. I feel like there is always something to do and it is always done with the students in mind. It feels like a community who are all happy to be here and are enjoying themselves.
Great extra services available from 301 for academic skills.
Internet could be improved around student accomodation
I'm really impressed with the high standards of the University of Sheffield. The library facilities are just amazing and I have a great time in some of the societies. The Union is really good as well. Strongly reccomend
Absolutely great, wifi in the rooms isint great though
Woo, you have the time of your life, and it's beautiful.
The union is great! It has such a variety of things to do, clubs to join, sports to play and paces to eat and socialise!
Loved being at this uni, nothing really negative I can say about it
Has been a relatively OK experience so far
Absolutely quality - couldnt see myself anywhere else
the most amazing experience I have ever lived. Everyone is helpful, friendly and polite. You can find anything you want from sports and activities to societies and clubbing.
Amazing Uni, amazing city, amazing people.
Currently having the best freshers experience here, the city feels very safe and is very easy to get around cheaply.
Had the absolute best time ever. Endcliffe village is an amazing place to live.
Amazing university, amazing place to be, Sheffield is incredible! The SU is the best, the city campus is easy to navigate around and the city is incredible
Large variety of societies and activities to participate in
Amazing city, amazing union and societies
Many memories made facilities all very good especially student union and endcliffe living accomodation. Very good uuniersity and city
Best place, amazing city,great facilities
Plenty of modern, well equipped facilities
Internet is quick but unreliable
The union is a happy place you can go to, to drink copious amounts of beverages
WiFi in any uni building, top up to date facilities, loads of societies with great people in them and a union packed with features that hosts regular top nights out. Careers service is a bit meh, but only a small negative
Sheffield is the best, and there's no argument that any university can make against it that will be true. No other words to put it other than that
Great student experience due to funding into lots of student buildings.
Haven't used Careers yet, but otherwise the university campus is superb. Students Union is great to go to in between lectures and hold the best club nights too.
Such a wide range of things to choose from, lots of facilities to work and socialise. Wifi is good in certain areas but connection gets lost quite easily.
Student's Union voted best in the country multiple times. Clubs, societies, facilities are all of a high standard. Internet is good. Career opportunities are great as Sheffield has lots of ties with industries of all types.
SU very modern, lots of cafe's/restaurants, facilities excellent
SU is good and the uni buildings are close together
No issues with university as lots available to do and lots of help available
I can't fault it so far. Everyone from the union was so helpful on moving in day and the events they run are too good. The only thing I was slightly disappointed on is they have a soc for everything apart from what I compete in: Windsurfing.
Such a friend,y university, very supportive and so many socials
Love being a mature student here!
Fantastic university, lovely people and a great city to live in!
First year, but loads of positive new experience.
University of Sheff is best place in the world, seriously
Really glad I decided to come to Sheffield. Everyone is really helpful, and there is always something to do. Course is also great.
Even though I'm a fresher I absolutely love it here. Everyone is so friendly and te student union is like a huge family. Thankyou for letting me be part of this!!
Turns education into a human experience rather than a one sided one like at school
Beautiful city, amazing course, wonderful people!
The facilites are all brand new for my course, there are always events going on that I can join in on, the students union has everything and more than I could need, and I can get fast wifi anywhere I go.
There has been the recent opening of The Diamond, which has more lecture theaters as well as new labs. There are also lots of clubs and societies, all of which can be found online, as well as being advertised during activities fair and freshers fair. A lot of help has been available in terms of career support and have a whole team dedicated to each disciplinary.
Simply indescribable. Best experience in my life :)
Awesome place with lovely people, who you can tell care about the university and the students in it.
ive just got here but early impressions nice
Can't fault Sheffield. The department I studied at in consistently in the top 5, regularly beating Oxbridge, so the degree is incredibly well respected. With the campus being over the city centre, you can get uni Internet over a very wide range! The SU is the best in the country, the clubs/ Societies are diverse and welcoming. The facilities are world class
Very solid modern and switched on university, but the only exceptional aspect is the students union.
I'm just beginning my third year and I don't want to leave! Sheffield university is an all round winner in my opinion with an incredible variety of socials on offer, the best students union in the country and world class teaching. Sheffield city itself is beautiful and vibrant and has all the facilities you need, yet it feels safe and manages to maintain a community atmosphere.
Fantastic facilities at Sheffield, fantastic city to live in, fantastic career opportunities. INCREDIBLE internet in the Union. 800mbp/s upload speed. Granted we were hard wired in, but that's PHENOMENAL! In regards to clubs and societies, it's thanks to Forge TV that i've found my passion in life, and a career path I want to take. So yes, the clubs and societies are brilliant!
I loved my experience in sheff uni first year and can't wait for second!
Sheffield's literally the only place in the country where you get such an amazing, safe, green city, a University with leading reputation and excellent facilities, combined with a vibrant student social life and nightlife.
I've had the most amazing first year at university and can't wait to return in September!
I love Sheffield and the university has everything I need!
Best degree, best university, best parties, best Students' Union, best city, best experience!
Friendliest University in the UK, great lecturers and tons of opportunities for extra activities in the Union and the greater city.
Friendly, so much usable space, union cares deeply about it's students and does its very best to help them out
The university of Sheffield is a largely supportive institution and offers so many opportunities. The students union is unequaled and I can't imagine a better place to study.
The university is fantastic and Sheffield is an incredible city, I can't imagine ever going to University anywhere else.
Without a doubt the best uni in the UK
A student experience that is welcoming and livley. There is so much to do around campus, which is unlike any university I have visited. The students union and nightlife is incredible adding to an amazing student lifestyle
Accepted via clearing and couldn't find accommodation, university hosted a day to help find housing with people who had similar interests and provided amazing help and attention to detail to a ensure our safety and happiness for a great working environment.
The perfect mix of a campus and city university, an absolutely fantastic SU and amazing facilities. The University and city itself is fantastic, the only small problem is slightly low standards in teaching in my department (Economics). Looking past that though it is fantastic and considering it was my insurance I can't imagine I would have enjoyed Bath (my firm) more than Sheffield.
Sheffield university has a perfect atmosphere for students. Everywhere is reasonably close together and because it's city based, you can pop to the shops whenever you want. The union has everything you need including a shop, multiple food outlets and it's own club nights.
Sheffield is an amazing university to attend. There are so many opportunities for us students including societies, volunteering, part time work and so much more. I would recommend sheffield to anyone.
Amazing students union with its own club! More opportunities and societies than you could ever need, and plenty of sports teams, which has definitely been a highlight for me this year!
Absolutely love the uni and love the city. The chemistry department is very well equipped and has all the chemicals and glassware given to you free of charge (no charge if broken or spilled). Textbooks were also given to chemistry students for free. The union is amazing. A lot of time is spent there. Great atmosphere, great facilities and awesome nights out (Tuesday Club is wicked). Student accommodation was really good, although, its not run by the uni and the company have been known to con people out of a bit of cash. There are loads of great buildings with lots of study space. The IC is a bit crowded but with the new Diamond being built, there should be enough space to accommodate us all. Overall a great uni in a great location. I don't want to leave.
A great university that offers help to all students. Sheffield is one of the best student cities in the country, if not the world. I would recomened it to anyone looking to do a good degree but also have fun and gain life experience.
I could not have chosen a better university, a better city to spend 5 years of my undergraduate life in!
Amazing uni atmosphere with support, fantastic lecturers and great services.
Amazing university!! Unbelievable wouldn't change a thing
I love Sheffield and the university if full of fun people dedicated to their work. The libraries especially the ic is brilliant and always have more than enough books to aid you. Tutors are supportive and try to make sure you achieve the best grade. The modules that I have done so far are always interesting minus one or two but that's the same for everything.
Great uni! Pop tarts is the best night out ever
The University of sheffield has provided me with a great platform to begin my career and has given me numerous opportunities to do various activities of my choice.
Absolutely amazing place to study! Kind and friendly atmosphere and makes you feel just at home! Not to mention the great Union nights out!
Best university by far, great academic and social opportunities with brilliant facilities and people!
Union is amazing, and the English department has such a wide range of topics with really enthusiastic and dedicated lecturers.
Welcoming, friendly, wonderful. You nobody regrets picking Sheffield.
Incredible, some of the greatest years of my life
Best university going. Great place
The best Uni out there for social life, as well as providing excellent facilities and academic as well as non-academic CV boosters.
Great Edu, amazing student experience and fun!
Lovely uni, helpful staff and students. Great social life and academics.
It's been the best 2 years of my life
I've thoroughly enjoyed my time at Sheffield, one of the best unis out there.
I travelled 2000 miles to study and live alone in Sheffield. This experience was my only option at the time. University of Sheffield helped me regain my hope and motivation and I know that the only thing I can control and do well is my career.
Best decision I have ever made was going to Sheffield University. It's fantastic!
Utterly amazing! I couldn't fault it
I absolutely love this university, choosing it was the best desision I've ever made! I honestly never want to leave!
Amazing uni! Can't fault any aspect of it!
Had excellent teaching in mechanical engineering, which has given me several career paths to choose from.
I've had the best first year at Sheffield. Social life is beyond amazing and I made lots of friends really quick. My course is very organised and the lecturers are very experienced. I have gained lots from my course that will help enhance my chances in the career I wish to pursue. The city as well is brilliant, it's a student city which also helps with social life. Overall, my time at the university of Sheffield has been amazing and I can't wait to go back for 2nd and 3rd year.
Best 3 years of my life, cheers Sheff.
It's a friendly atmosphere with people around all the time to deal with queries and problems. The student union facilities are great with well organised club nights as well as shops and sober activities too. As a sports member the facilities are best to non with gym pool and studios
I've had the best three years of my life in sheffield. The city is amazing, the people are lovely and the university is fantastic
Sheffield has everything you could want as a student. For the past three years I've had the best experience I could have had. The nightlife, academics, facilities are all great. Endless opportunities constantly being made available to you.
Ideal place, there is always somewhere to go to when you need help!
Best decision of my life to study here! Amazing first year!
Great range of societies and facilities and the union is very good
Amazing facilities and great student life
There's a reason we win best students union so often!
WiFi was a bit patchy and slow, libraries were always full and were really limited in the amount of popular books (one reference copy for a course of 200). Not many societies and all expect you to pay but barely put on any events or anything.
i love Sheffield, it's a great uni with great opportunities and plenty of places to go out every night of the week
Love being at Sheffield, the union is epic with great club nights most nights and loads of great services to help with any problem. Also love the accommodation for first years, most of it is really new with large rooms and ensuites.
It is a fabulous city and a hard university, Slackers can not continue studying there..
I absolutely love the university of sheffield! I have just finished my first year and I've already had so many opportunities to be involved in the things I love and have met friends for life! I can't imagine being anywhere else!
Had a fantastic first year, enjoyed every minute, roll on year 2
Such an opportunity rich community around the university.
Even though I'm only in my first year going into my second in September, I've had the best experience so far and cannot wait for more memories to be made. Excellent law school also which I am proud to be a part of.
Amazing university! Best experience of my life! Great accommodation, amazing staff, so many things to do and the city is like a home away from home!
Great nightlife, excellent accommodation/campus/facilities, amazing city to live in and an experience you won't forget !
Amazing experience both leisure and academic
This uni and its union are the best in the country
Amazing university with first class facilities, lecturers and professors providing guidance whenever needed. Love the student community - it feels like home away from home!
The facilities are second to none
Sheffield has been absolutely fantastic this year at looking after us when it came to finding accommodation and avoiding dodgy landlords
May be biased but sheffield is the most inclusive, welcoming environment I have ever experienced. Friendly, enthusiastic individuals who know how to work hard and play hard
Not worth the money. Lack of student support and mediocre teaching. Standards dragged down due to the university accepting just about anyone. This also means lectures are often rammed to the full. Not worth the current price of an arts degree.
Great people, great courses, great university.
Fantastic uni, but even better city. Good night life and solid services provided. Wouldn't even think of changing to a different uni.
Just finished first year and had a wonderful year, the degree course was great, there is really good support from the staff and the students union is amazing! They are putting a lot of work into improving the uni, there is always building work going on, and the diamond for the engineering department is set to be brilliant.
Brilliant students union, courses, activities, societies and socials with a fantastic campus in a beautiful city
Couldn't have asked for a better university experience!
Not bias in the slightest, I do believe that Sheffield university offers its students an exepriece which is second to none. It's clubs and societies aren't merely 'student' - it's theatre company produces and performes work of national recognition. A city campus, you experience the freedom of independance for the first time, the whole city feeling open and safe. The plethora of clubs and bars means no one night is ever the same. Their approch to education encourages students to explore and experiment with creative and practical approches - my arts course particularly allowed for this breadth of learning. Having said this, the sandwiches in the union shop are a little pricey.
Way overrated Union. Nothing for anyone remotely alternative. Terrible at catering for gluten-free.
It was down as my insurance choice, but I am so so glad I went here and not to my firm! Couldn't pick a better uni
Experienced tutors input is worthwhile
eduroam always cuts out and has weak signal often anyway
