I don’t like the administration’s of dealing with problems. I don’t like the fact that the university was at the 78th rank and now became at the 97th rank. There is no clarification on why the university board is operating the way they are right now.
Apartments are comfortable, clean and well managed. The room is large, there are always free drinks and desserts, and the reception service is very good.
gooooooooooooood！！！！！
very good very happy very nice,every day is very good.nice!bbbbb
The location is very convenient. Close to university buildings and grocery stores. It’s also close to the city centre. The rooms are also well designed. It has tv and heater/air conditioner in each room. I highly recommend this accommodation.
The amenities in the student union are lovely. There is always support when needed regarding career advice, student support, financial advice and more.
The transportation is very convenient, the location is very good, and the rooms are very large
Very social uni, some facilities are modern and some old
I did not use many facilities on campus because of the covid
Great student apartment with excellent reception staff and security! I left a lot of memories here!
The University of Sheffield has a beautiful campus environment and responsible teachers. On the whole, the University of Sheffield is very good in all aspects.
Except for wasting a lot of time and energy by CAS and pre-registration before the start of school, I haven't found anything bad about this school for the time being.
It's a great university which cares students the most and always put us as their priority.
A fun place to socialise and attain world class education.
The school infrastructure and equipment are good, the teachers are very patient, everything is great!
The service in crown house is perfect !Two months ago, I encountered difficulties in opening a bank account. The staff at the front desk patiently helped me solve the difficulties and made me feel very warm.
The University is doing well for what it can throughout the pandemic
We can only have online lesson this year because of the COVID-19. But the group of teacher try them best to help us to solve the problem in life and study. It’s a fantastic study experience.
To be honest, I don't have the chance to experience the faculties and campus this year, so I could not give a fair value.
Sheffield is a great university
We have a great weekend and house is crown ,I like it very much
very good university，but have limit chance to study in the classroom this year due to Covid-19
Cool! I like university of Sheffield although I don’t have a true feeling due to the COVID 19, but I believe everything will get better!
Teachers here are very nice and friendly. The campus in Sheffield is different from other university which is unfenced. I really enjoy studing here.
The school service is very good, the teachers will be eager to answer questions, even if the online class also gained a lot of knowledge
The University of Sheffield has very good facilities and the teaching staff are very professional and I have learned a lot here
The University of Sheffield is very nice.
It is a great university with excellent tutors and courses schedules.
There are a large number of international students in the school. Everyone likes this school very much and the teachers are very enthusiastic. It is a worthy school for everyone to learn.
Pretty good! I have been very impressed with those receptionist who are nice and friendly!
perfect！I love my school！I love the city！
Although COVID-19 have a big influence in everyone life but college stuff still work with us I appreciate those work
Teachers are responsible, and schools have a lot of activities to help them find jobs after graduation.
that's so good and rockingham house is a can't miss choice
Really fun even in Covid-19 times!
Great place for international students
although the virus are quite serious，I still experience the campus life quite well and the excellent teaching quality
The location is great, close to the University. The service is perfect, happy to live here.
still don't have the chance to explore the campus well
Recommend Rockingham House, nice student flat with super nice people here.
Beautiful campus and great facilities, the students union is brilliant.
Wouldn’t want to go any where else!
It is a fantastic accommodation and I love it very much！！！！！n
Best student apartment ever,reception are very nice.
This apartment is excellent, i really like all the staff here and the environment is awesome, i do admire everything here.
Very convenient as in west street. Great value for students. Also convent to access the student facility, highly recommended
Nice accommodation and nice staffs, love it
Good luck with you happy forever
Lovely student union. And I moved into a new bright glass building called Heart Space. Really nice here.
Very good experience and really enjoy it！
Great university. I really love studying at the Uni of Sheffield
Enjoy my university with good facility. very convenient
satisfy with the University life
Great university experience, especially prior to COVID.
The university is a fantastic place to study. The Staff are friendly and helpful.
Students union is great and huge.
Supportive university under the current pandemic
Did not get to explore as much as I wanted due to the virus
Em, it is not easy for me to use the facilities of the school because of covid-19 and the lockdown policy
Great! I can find people to help me whatever I come across. Looking forward to the end of lockdown that I can visit the closed facilities such as Sheffield Sports.
The University of Sheffield has always done a great job in accommodating students in their studies and life experiences. They offer great library spaces and have many wonderful departmental buildings. It's possible to walk easily from one to the next.
Uni still got a lot to do in regards to making student life exceptional. I think Sheffield Hallam does a lot more financial and health support than Sheffield uni. Overall, Sheffield uni is getting there, just not as quick as I hoped
I am studying at my home for now
University has the best students union in the UK and it shows!
Amazing and spacious rooms with great contemporary interior design and friendly staff
The University of Sheffield has a city campus with a lot of beautiful, architectural buildings. The Students Union is one of the best from all the Universities.
Not great, rather disorganised. It's very hard to find any information/navigate the online platforms/do anything basically. Staff acts like they want to help but end up not knowing what to do or not doing anything. Very disappointing for this much money.
Great uni with such a friendly feel, staff are always lovely and helpful
The uni is great! HOWEVER... I lived with a company called NOBLE DESIGN & BUILD, and it was the worst place ever! The building was full of people who definitely didn’t work or study, always blasting music and the entire building smelt of drugs! Things were never fixed, the lift was always out, fire alarms going off every other day, and they were REALLY loud, and worst of all, when I moved out they threatened to sue me because I didn’t feel safe enough to stay there any longer!!!
I lived at Portland Tower and loved being able to work in the amazing Diamond all the time!
One of the most underrated city in the UK. Excellent nightlife, lovely people, and a beautiful national park at your doorstep. The university offers a large variety of courses, with teaching from some of the world's top researchers, and access to world-class facilities. There is an array of great societies to chose from, and the student's union is one of the best, and nicest, in the UK. The student area is safe, lively, and has lots of great local pubs in and around the area. Didn't meet anyone at university who disliked Sheffield.
Great accommodation with the friendliest receptionists who are always available to help. The night owls are always open to converse and help as well. It is close to the university and the city centre. They made sure we were comfortable and safe during the lockdown. 100% would definitely recommend.
Nice university with high reputation and good teaching resources
Staffs are friendly Everything was good
Amazing university. They care about their students education as well as their well being and experience
Has been a challenge, definitely an experience
It is a very good uni with lots of facilities
very good university, good place, good library, good student union
The methodology of teaching is fairly great and your skills improve a lot.
The university gives a very good student experience from learning until the extracurricular. The university has top facilities and its student union has so many clubs/societies. I enjoy my university time in this university.
Very good place for studing here
Very convenient to go to the supermarket and city center. Great!
The career services is very helpful and the library is really nice.
Very prestigious with high quality services. You will definitely get a life time experience.
Students Union should pay more attention to protect students' right
Great service of student union
Good University. Nice environment.
the best apartment in the world
Good university chug beer for a while haha is the day you tomorrow night or
The university is very suitable for independent study, of course, there are professional team to solve your problems both study or life.
One of the best universities in the UK. Facilities are new and well maintained. Lecturers are kind and professional.
it's OK，everythings seems to be good. And teacher are very nice and gentle
Still a bit scary, feel isolated from peers due to age and disabilities and a bit scared to get involved but course is good and staff are helpful
The students union is excellent and compared with other cities, living cost here is quite affordable.
a great experience to study in UoS with all of its facilities
good universt, MBB is a really good department
Our university is good. You can meet a lot of students from all over the world.
Downright awful from start to finish. I am Jewish. I faced anti-Semitic verbal abuse from day one. I was spat at for being Jewish. I had a Labour Party student activist shout at me, "Hitler was right about you Yids." He then did a Nazi salute. I had a ham sandwich thrown at me. I reported this and more racist abuse to my tutor. He just laughed. I took it higher. They did nothing. Sheffield University is a nest bed of socialist anti-Semitism. I am not the first Jew to suffer anti-Semitic abuse at Sheffield University. Sadly, I won't be the last. I would strongly advise all Jewish students to avoid Sheffield University like the plague. It is a grotesque, hideous university, run by leftist anti-Semites for leftist anti-Semites.
Love sheffield, truly amazing uni they genuinely cares about its students and their welfare!
Good university, and good staff
I never thought I could fall in love with a place as much as I have with Sheffield. I am currently in my second year and having the best time. The students union has the best nights out and its great because you see everyone you know. There's so many clubs and societies to get involved in and it really feels like one big community. I couldn't recommend Sheffield enough
The university is a good quality
Nothing to complain it’s quite good
Best experience at Student Union
Good and very friendly SU staff members
My first year has been great and I enjoy the campus and my lecturers.
Having a good experience and a great time at this university.
It is one of the best student experiences you'll ever get. Amazing!
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
I am overall more than satisfied with my university
No any problem about the university
if you have any problems, they are happy to help you and that is much appreciated for those who are foreigners and feel lost the first days of class
A great place to study and a great university.
First year student and really enjoying it so far! Student Union has honestly everything there from amazing food stops to an everything convenience store and just lots of social and quiet spaces! Great people here and thats what really makes the university, as well as great staff and support system available!
I found the university of Sheffield perfect and the Facilities excellent.
Being a top 100 university, they provide students with state of the art facilities.
One of brilliant university in UK
The ranking of university is very nice. The staff is friendly.
It has a really great environment and excellent facilities.
A good place, the staffs very warm as well
Very good uni! That's really good
The wifi tends to disappear quite a lot in the diamond but otherwise it's great
fantastic diverse university with great resources
This university may have best language service I can imagine.
The best university in the world and very friendly environment
everything is good and no notes
A good place to study with good quality facilities. The online system is good and it is easy to get access to study resources
I think I was fooled by the website.
Great university with very helpful lecturers. The Diamond is a 24/7 building that allows us student to utilize and work on assignments. Classes may be scattered across the city and parts of the places requires walking uphills.
I like my university. It has good reputation and good supports for our international students
Great Uni with loads of brilliant facilities including two good libraries and a great union.
As for the class design , i really hope that our teacher could offer as much direct reading material link as possible, so that student can get rid of time wasting to do searching. save time to do more reading.
As for the one year stay in the University of Sheffield. I have learned a lot professional knowledge also got accustom to British culture, made some friends and been to some countries, those precious experience changed my way of thinking as well as my attitude towards the world, it seems that I become much more mature than before. All in all, the Master study in Sheffield Uni could be one of the best memories in my life.
Here you can find like-minded friends. There are plenty of extracurricular activities, as well as intense course assignments
The student union intervened Chinese policy.and it sucks！People should not support violence！Everyone in the world should be kindness！
A quiet place to study, but still equiped everything I need. People around are so nice to me.
I had a great year in sheffield.
There are some classes that designed not really well, I would say the tutorials should be helpful, however some of the tutors are not being as helpful as they suppose to be, so it really depends on the luck of having different tuor. Some class carries too much infomaiton of which the lecture are not sufficient for students to understand. despite the educationla detailed trials, everything is decent!
I think the most important offer is the career center
I spent great time here for study. Arts tower is the main place for courses. The environment and tutors are nice, I can also reheat my lunch in 11th and 16th floors with microwave ovens. The flat, libraries and teaching building are close, which is more accessible. Student Union is opposite to the Arts Tower. Thank you.
Unforgettable experience in Sheffield.
The ranking of the UoS is good and the professors and classmates are working hard. Most of time, the diamond always be crowded even though on the weekends.
internet is pretty slow at times but it's ok. Problems with funding in my department but that's a UK thing not just for this university.
Excellent Students Union. Supportive university staff. Advanced facilities and beautiful campus. Friendly and safe city.
Having a nice experience in this college.
It is very suitable for the EEE student.
The diamond is a great place to study. Sheffessions is the best Facebook page I’m on. Accommodation is great, halls are lovely. Nightlife is great and there’s loads of choice where to go. The city is great for food and shopping and everything you’d want. There’s loads of trees and parks and all that - it’s a beautiful city (the walk from Endcliffe to the uni is past some nice looking houses and just generally a pretty environment). Would recommend
good environment. good facilities.
I love my university and this country. The distinguished campus culture interest me a lot.
I really like the 24/7 library.
The time in Sheffield is like a dream and I don’t want to wake up.
A great and friendly university to study and live.
Love this university! No complaints :)
It's a nice experience to study at this university. it has a great student union. Staff can help you solve any issue you have.
I’m a first year at Sheffield uni and so far I’m really enjoying my time here - great clubbing nights
A world-class university with nice campus and high reputation.
Awesome social life. There are lots of societies for whatever interest you have or culture you come from. The lecture theatres are well equipped and the labs have all the required facilities.
The only thing I want to mention is the computer systems and other service in the university are excellent.
Nice people all around.. really helped in adjusting in the new place!
Nice university. Great place to be . Needs a lively atmosphere as a city as a whole but university is nice
With strong faculty, strong learning atmosphere and complete teaching facilities, it is a very good university.
Great uni, the clubs and facilities are fantastic and help me meet a lot of people from other departments. I study architecture and believe the workshop facilities can be improved/upgraded to include some modern machines that allow for experimentation
Goooooooood goood goood goood goood goood goood goood
Very welcoming and good facilities.
The University of Sheffield offers great experiences and convenience even to international students
In my first year now and so far i am enjoying this experience. The staffs are all so friendly and helpful when i approached for enquiries. I enjoy spending time in the student union and the diamond the most as i feel that the location and environment is ideal.
I think this apartment very nice
The university of Sheffield is great for you to have a study and it has the best students union. And there are various activities every week.
Good university with good campus, good clubs and societies, good students union, good careers service, good internet.
the wifi is bot very good sometimes
The university of Sheffield has many good professors and a lot of resources for research.
everything is good , I like this place
Best students union and great campus layout!
Like the Diamond library very much, but too hard to find a seat during working days
Big student union which makes you feel part of a community.
It really is one of the best universities in the world
Very inclusive, easy to make friends because it's very international
A very welcoming university that makes international students feel like they belong here. Helpful staff, great facilities.
The WiFi at the diamond is preety crap. The career service team is always nice and helpful
management school far away from the main campus
The university is very engaging and the staff members are friendly and helpful. Any guidance needed will be given. The study program is also very good.
The workers of student union is really friendly, we are enjoying our postgraduate education
Mediocre university that is showing off for their diversity numbers. No real help for mental health issues is possible to get.
Amazing students union, great facilities, helpful and kind staff, good student halls and a fantastic city!
I like this university. There are many activities of students' union
I think all of my lecturers for my actual course are lovely, but on open days they outright lied about the available facilities. Most people I have spoke to have complained about the lack of mental health support available, I tried to book an appointment weeks ago and heard nothing from them, work really needs to be done on the general facilities, otherwise the Uni is great
Love the Uni so far. The majority of the staff are really passionate and always eager to help. The campus is quite spread out so there’s a lot of walking. But overall, a good experience so far.
This university is wonderful. One of the first things I noticed is that the people working for departments/the union and numerous facilities are friendly and really helpful. It was from the start a lovely experience which made the transition to higher education easy and exciting. There are numerous activities, facilities and opportunities. Three years of uni are not enough to explore what Uni of Sheffield has to offer. That is what worries me. Overall, Uni of has made it clear right from the beginning that it is committed to its students and their futures, and that there are many ways through which the uni can help. I recommend it to any student.
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

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.
