I always felt safe during my stay at Student Castle, and the 24/7 security desk was a big reason I chose this place. They organise many different kinds of events every month, which really helps students socialise and connect. I was grateful to be part of Student Castle Carnival a few months ago and it created some memorable moments for me. I would highly recommend Student Castle to any students looking for accommodations in York!

There are so many clubs and societies here - they even have a Boba society and a Ramen society which is so coool - there offer so many clubs for us to get involved in and make friends. So no matter what your hobbies its easy to find people with the same interests and passions as you. The internet and Wifi service is also amazing - i get the university pretty much any where in campus (it was a bit difficult to set up at first but they give you instructions so just follow that!). The campus is also very prettyyy - there are so many pretty trees, ducks and so much more. I share a kitchen between 15 people which is the only thing that's confusing me - but since I live in catered accommodation so far its been all good as we haven't had to cook a lot. Overall the University of York is very welcoming and supportive - they give you so much information so you know exactly what you are doing!

Highly recommend for disabled students. The student support plan system at University of York is incredible, the disability support team are dedicated, compassionate and efficient. In my experience, all academic staff are receptive, willing to adapt and through office hours you can access assessment and curriculum support. There is an issue of Campus West being less well resourced than Campus East but still very comfortable, and buses are incredibly inconsistent/completely packed, so when travelling to meet a specific time factor in at least 30-40 minutes of extra time to account for this. I'd recommend living on-campus first year, highly recommend Alcuin College (quiet, close to library, close to bus links, Campus West is very scenic with gorgeous wildlife). There is a class divide at the University between state-school and private school students, but it is a Russell Group and its (sadly) expected. However, this mainly manifests as ignorant comments and arrogance- easily ignored.

University of York is good but the Halifax college needs to improve a lot, in term of renovation building, facility, common room, and please do not expel postgraduate students of the dorm before the dissertation deadline.

Great place to study, especially if you enjoy a small town over a big city environment like London. Noticeable facilities difference between Campus West and East. Campus West needs more refurbishments. Personally, it was hard to make close friends if you don't party, drink, or go to pubs.

I had a very pleasant stay in this apartment. The location is convenient, close to transportation, supermarkets and restaurants, and life is very convenient. The room is clean and tidy, with good lighting, complete facilities, and timely maintenance. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, and the overall living environment is safe and comfortable. The landlord/property management is also very professional, and any problems can be communicated and solved in time. Overall, it is a very ideal living choice, I highly recommend it!

Love our university, and one of the better universities in the UK in terms of how they've responded on student union requests to divest from companies linked to Israel and the military industrial complex, though they could still do much more to divest and listen to student's concerns about financial chain links to war crimes.

The University of York is a fantastic place to study, with a beautiful campus, great facilities, and supportive staff. My course particularly (BSc in Film and Television Production) is hands-on, with access to industry-standard equipment and creative opportunities, making it ideal for aspiring media professionals.

Good uni, lots of resources and books to help aid study. Nice campus, very scenic. Could do with more study spaces. Good mental health service if needed. Lots of sports societies to join.

The University of York has a beautiful and scenic campus, it's so refreshing to attend a university that feels so peaceful and safe. There are lots of opportunities for students to get involved with, including hundreds of societies. I'm currently a part of my colleges football team at the university and I'm so glad I've found such a good group of people. The opportunities York university has provided allows me to explore more than just my studying, allowing me to meet new people and try new hobbies.

The campus facilities are absolutely fantastic. The university takes good care of the common areas as well as the beautiful wildlife we have on campus. There are hundreds of societies with a great diversity you can choose from. They are also several libraries with different areas that are great to help you study in the best of conditions!

I love UoY, and I'm so happy I chose to come here. But whilst the city is beautiful and the campus has more ducks than you could wave a stick at, it is at its core a university with a lack of funds. The staff are very nice and there is a good community spirit, but alot of things are very basic such as campus bars and accommodation.

Loved studying in York. The Uni facilities are great, the faculty incredibly helpful in my experience and the WiFi is good enough to get on with. Didn’t hear much from the student union in my time there but I also never really went looking for anything about it so that could be my own fault. Amazing place to study.

My time so far at the university has been great. The campus is stunning and provides lots of areas to walk and relax. I love the nature that it provides. The facilities in my department are great and the library is a great space to revise or do group work.
