University of Winchester Reviews

Generally good. Careers are a great bunch, and are so helpful Internet, never had a problem Clubs and Societies, generally something for everyone! Campus is beautiful, and the facilities are ok, but the campus is always expanding and getting bigger.

Eduroam is the worst wifi service on earth and that is coming from everybody. Never connects and when it does its speed is questionable. The university is good and the library is great. Location is nice and you can tell that they make effort but I still feel as if things can be improved.

Lovely university.

The internet in the rooms further away from the kitchen can disappear often

Societies for everything you could think of including Dessert Tasting!! (It's fab btw) good range of nights out in the union club, also movie nights and quizzes for the non partiers like me lol

Beautiful campus and incredibly helpful staff, the constant climbing of what we've come to call 'the mountain' is the only fault I can find so far, and that's only a 15 minute walk up a hill.

Services at the university have been slow and missed communications dealing with difficult situations.

The campus is small but its big enough not to seem cramped. The hills are horrible but after the first term you get used to it!

The campus and its facilities are exemplar; disabled accessibility, food service, the Library and Computer access are abundant. The clubs and societies at Winchester are amazing, whether they're based around sports, politics, gaming, or are specific course societies they're fantastically inclusive and active. (Shoutout to Busking, History and Psychology!) The Students Union is fantastic as its staff, social events and facilities have been consistently brilliant and continue to improve! The careers services are welcoming and efficient in their advice and are committed towards getting you the best job for you. Internet is very fast and the entirety of the campus has Wi-Fi access, literally everywhere!

Uni has everything I need, very modern campus is nice

We need more events that stay open later

If you don't have the courage to reach out for help here, your not going to get noticed.

Pretty decent university. Although if I had the chance to choose uni's again Winchester would not be my first!

Cannot fault it.

The university overall has a friendly atmosphere to it which is easy to help you settle in.

love it

This university has given me independence from living at home whilst still providing me with help and guidance when it is needed instead of me feeling overwhelmed of what to do.

Very good experience at the university so far this year, everyone is very friendly. Nightlife is not so good but definitely makes up for it with the amount of pubs and student union events

Lovely, friendly university. Not a wild place with very limited night life, but if you want a friendly chilled no then winchester is the place for you.

A good uni but quite small, good for some but not others. Full of primary ed students and Americans! Library is good

Very enjoyable, very clean and a very friendly enviroment

Queens is the best halls on campus

Pretty crap

It has offered me a lot- career wise, always ensuring you better yourself. You get used to the hills

Good uni, really good accomodation, help is always avaliable if you have any problems

Had a great first semester and make lots of friends from the friendly university and town etc.

Very good university, especially for Primary Education, library is well stocked! SU do good nights, especially with decorations and the like and the drinks are reasonable priced. Enjoy my course and the people at the uni are very good! If it wasn't for the lack of a local big supermarket (Sainsburys down the hill in town is a pain because walking up from there with shopping is tiring!) then it would be perfect! Online shopping is needed really. Also a shame about the hills, however it makes me feel less guilty about not joining a gym!

Wake up every morning to a lovely cleaner named Rose. Nuff said

Great first semester living in Winchester. Campus provides many facilities and living in halls provided me with an easier transition into uni life!

From day one the university have been really helpful. If you have either personal or academic worries the staff are easily approachable and easy to talk to.

It's alright I suppose

The only thing missing I a microwave and a water heather, its expensive to live of campus and having to by anything hot to eat or drink,

The wifi can act a bit odd on the occasion but for the most part it works. A really great university with a lot of fantastic perks. Highly Highly Recommend for people to come to Winchester.

not bad

Fantastic all round !!

So friendly, the small community means you will always bump into people you know on nights out etc.

Very good WiFi throughout all campus areas. Could do with more clubs and societies.

Lack of mixing

Wifi is temperemental but the rest of this section, Winchester is amazing for

The uni does have SU events however, when you compare them to other uni events they're not great!

Brilliant facilities, and services for students. However due to the obvious extra intake of students every year, facilities are often stretched at peak times of the day. Computers and workspaces become hard to find in periods like this.

Friendly university, has everything that is needed

A lovely peaceful campus with that countryside feel yet it is still close to town and the train and bus station. The clubs run here are always popular with everyone and the careers service here help you get a job as well as teaching you skills like how to write a CV.

Pleasant small uni with plenty of opatunities.

Love studying here, it's small and comforting so you don't feel just like a number

Lovely uni, great atmosphere. Student union do some good events (BOP, s-club 7, beat-a-max). Queens is the best accomdation:))

great place to be - beautiful city and everything is at most 20 minute walk away

Absolutely amazing the university makes the campus as safe and homely as possible

Amazing university! You know practically everyone and you honestly do make friends for life ! X

Decent

The staff and the 24hr facilities on campus are really great - i love it here! the only thing is the SU shop is really expensive

very good university on the whole however, expect thing to take twice as long as they should

Friendly student union which has something for everyone and holds events every night. Only downside is the amount of hills, but you tend to get used to them within the first semester

St lizzies is the place to be

Quite expensive societies to join, but good variety. Wifi is very good.

cool place

Love it so much

Easy to navigate around campus, friendly SU members

great uni, great campus, the internet is quite slow but not too bad and there isn't much of a social life out side of the SU as there is only one club

Beautiful campus. Very friendly.

Wifi is really good and so are the student nights

All round great uni. The people are helpful and the campus its self is small and easy to navigate.

the wifi on campus is perfect( or close to anyway) as there is a connection wherever you are except some rooms in halls which can have REALLY bad wifi

Winchester is a wonderful and small uni where you always see people you know and everyone is lovely

Overall it's a lovely small campus and very friendly

good university with a lot of helpfull people

Beautiful campus, but to small, No place to sit and study, are some space at the library but the air in there is so bad that I get a headache every time I'm in there for more than 30 minutes

This university has a very high standard. The teachers are great, and so are the students. You can be yourself, and it will most likely be a society where you fit in. The teachers are very motivating, and passionate about their subject.

The student union at Winchester is incredible, the events are always so fun and the safety bus is also s big part of a good night out as it safely takes you straight home for free.

I did not attend Winchester myself but as a guest I was treated in an appallingly rude manner by the pathetic excuses they have for staff at the student union 'Nightclub' (aka glorified school disco that does not allow students to enjoy themselves). Both times I have been to an SU event when visiting a friend attending Winchester uni I have been treated as far, far, far more drunk than I was and on the first occasion was thrown out and verbally abused by the security staff for slipping on an ice cube while wearing 5 inch stilettos- apparently this was enough to make an assumption that I was highly intoxicated and had nothing to do with the state of the floor... hmmmmm... perhaps one should purchase a breathalyzer for future use as they clearly cannot use their eyes and 'brains' to determine otherwise. I highly recommend prospective students give Winchester a miss if they wish to be able to go out and enjoy themselves without getting scrutinized.

Winch is the way

Student union is awful compared with other universities, it is closed at the weekend and doesn't offer any sports viewing.

AMAZING!! The wildest student parties at the Vault!

The su events are fab!

I love this university, everybody is so friendly and the teachers are really cool and approachable, you get treated like an adult here and that's a nice touch, it's a short distance from town too so that's not a far walk, and the place in general is really pretty

Its getting better academically. Lecturers are very good, courses have excellent content. Very friendly community atmosphere due to relatively small university size. Ideal for students unsure about moving away from home or people from small towns/villages.

The University of Winchester may be small and the campus may be scattered, but the university has it where it counts. The professors teach to a high standard and help as much as possible, which is what is important.

Good university with fantastic facilities. It's a nice size campus with easy access to the city centre and train station (10-15 minute walk).

Haven't got a job yet but I'm trying and haven't done any clubs
