I've loved my time here! The uni is quite big and there are so many places to study. There's a newly built Student Centre that's super bright and modern, perfect for studying if you don't want to be silent in a library setting. The library has a large selection of books. The nightlife is pretty dire to be honest, there's only about 2 clubs in the whole of Preston (Switch and Warehouse) But the uni is great tbh, I've really enjoyed my time here. read more

Decent university that allows you to be independent, however the teaching quality leaves something to be desired at times. read more

I recently attended the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) in Preston and I am thoroughly impressed with my experience. The campus is modern and well-maintained, with a variety of facilities for students to use, including libraries, computer labs, and sports centres. The academic staff were knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects, and always willing to provide support and guidance. The university offers a wide range of courses, providing students with a diverse range of study options. The city of Preston is also a great place to study, with a lively student community and a variety of activities and events to participate in. Overall, I would highly recommend UCLan to anyone looking for a high-quality education in a supportive and dynamic environment. read more
