Manchester Metropolitan University

Student life is great, with clubs everywhere and no one afraid to talk to anyone. Even after the club, everyone remains social—a quick trip to Babylons and you're best friends.

My course has great teachers who are passionate about teaching and use varied assessment styles, creating fairness for students with different strengths. The accommodations are in or close to the city centre, where the university is located, making commuting easy for both university and social events. There are many events and societies, as well as great student bars, so you'll never get bored—everything here is amazing. One area that could be improved is access for disabled students; there has been a recent notice that some accessible entrances are not truly accessible. However, one of the candidates running for student union president is highlighting this issue and is looking to fix it, so it should improve.

Great city. The hall was in a great location and very sociable, with plenty of activities always happening. The course is great and offers lots of opportunities.

Because I booked my accommodation late (at the end of May), I had less choice for on-campus halls, so I ended up in private Homes for Students accommodation. It's about a 20-30 minute commute by bus, but I actually prefer being further away from campus because it helps me separate work and rest. The societies, especially sports societies, are some of the best ways to make friends. I would encourage you to join one, whatever level you are at, as there are lots of beginner, development, and recreational options.

The social life is amazing and my course is interesting. It offers lots of information and opportunities.

University has really brought a new experience for me. I enjoy my course and have really enjoyed meeting new people, but it has been a struggle financially as no jobs have been hiring me. Careers out here are a struggle.

Fab tutors, great nightlife, and a very social atmosphere. There are also plenty of green spaces and work opportunities. The downside is that it’s pricey.

MMU is an incredible university that is paving the way for degree apprenticeships. Exposure to both academics and industry experts adds great value to our career progression. The degree apprenticeship route has also allowed me to develop in industry while completing my degree.

Had an immaculate social life since coming here and my course provides many options for future careers and career development
