University of Leicester

The student life is amazing, especially in The Village accommodations! The courses are really interesting and the lecturers are so helpful.

Studying at the University of Leicester has been a great experience so far. The city is very student-oriented, with shops, hair salons, restaurants, and other convenient places within walking distance, such as the City Centre. The social life in Leicester is never dull, and there is always something to do as the people here are great! The campus is picturesque and exudes a positive vibe, with places like the David Wilson Library containing a beautiful interior that makes you feel warm.

Great course with diverse assignments that make it fun and engaging. I would recommend it to anyone interested in business.

The University of Leicester was my second choice, as I initially wanted to end up in Birmingham. When I got to Leicester, I loved how the campus wasn't too big and all the first-year students lived in a little student village in Oadby. The student life was amazing and provided a great chance to mingle with new people. I studied Law and the course itself was great, with an option to do placement years and also an option to take an additional exam rather than complete a dissertation. Having completed my three years at Leicester, I could not see myself anywhere else. I made friends for life and the community was great.

My first year of university took place during the pandemic, so the majority of classes were held online. I found online learning to be more cost-effective than commuting to campus. My tutor during my three years at university was incredibly helpful and provided valuable insights into my post-graduation plans.

Accommodation: good price, clean and good standards, something for everyone and their needs/expectations
Course/Module: great course, a lot of support with work and helping you keep on track always willing to help
Facilities: great facilities, great equipment in gyms, amazing student union and amazing support
Social life: so many places to go and way to make friends, many many societies and opportunities and events within societies

Medicine at Leicester personally is great. As a second year student the preclinical years (first two years) are very scheduled and you have two lectures and group work everyday where you discuss answers with your group and a doctor is in the room with you to help check answers. I think this is a valuble learning method and would recommend it to anyone. The social life is also promising at Leicester as the university is only 15 minutes away from town where there are plenty of restaurants and activities to try out with friends.

My university life has been great all thanks to the different resources and support system the university provides, I am glad to call myself a University of Leicester student!

Leicester is a great university especially because they actually care about the well-being of their students. There are regular check ins with personal tutors and various methods of getting help from the university and it was very easy for me to access counseling when I needed it

Very good. There was plenty of activities available to do and make our time (in the first few week) it helped physics to bond. I love Bowder Court it’s the best the kitchen is amazing and the room is comfy and big. Everything is very good here and looked after and the best quality it could be. . . It’s more maths than any English and it’s a lot of maths

The University of Leicester is a fantastic university, when I was a fresher there were plenty of help available, for any question, trouble, small or big issue. The university was well coordinated and organised for new students making it easier to settle in, there were plenty of information available about student living, getting to the campus, walking around the campus and where to find everything. When moving into student flats we had a huge meeting with the university regarding rules and regulations, where to find certain things, who to approach with building issues or personal issues, as well as housing reps who were available.

Staff throughout the three years were great, all very keen to help out wherever they can and had dedicated office hours to assist with any queries. Facilities at the new Brookfield Business campus are great and the campus has a very friendly vibe. The university as a whole is very organized and communicates important things like exams and marks in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend for quality of teaching and overall experience.

Great facilities and teaching, lovely safe campus, freemans accommodation so nice

The university of Leicester is a great university to go too, it's staff and teachers push you to do your best and help is always there if needed.

Before I even started my course I knew that Leicester was the place I was meant to be. Everybody was so welcoming and so informative with their answers to my questions. I felt as if I belonged there. I wouldn't even wish to be in another Uni right now!

The first day I stepped into university of Leicester campus, it was a breath of fresh air. It felt like home!
I felt at ease and I was comfortable, I was taken back how surprised I quickly adapted and made new friends at a quick pace.

My course is the sort of course that if you succeed, the opportunities are beyond amazing, the knowledge, experience and £££ you earn and can make as an actuary is amazing! I love with three amazing girls, two of them the friends I made the first day i took step onto uni grounds, I’m happy I went out that night because I wouldn’t have them like I do now. The University of Leicester is a great uni in a great location with great people! As it’s located right next to town, it is not a mission and a half to pop into town for whatever you need, clubs and bars are also all in the same area which is convenient.

Three or more years of an overwhelming sense of freedom, meeting new people of all different bakgrounds and experiences, starting on a clean slate without bringing your past with you, living with people your own age, waking up at whatever times you want and barely sleeping, student discounts, the thrill of feeling rich when recieving student loans, creating new dishes or eating takeaways as you please, studying what youve picked and not what youve been forced to study, so much free time to find new hobbies, joining societies and clubs and finally going out whenever you want to and having fun.

I had a brilliant university experience. The academics on the course were incredibly helpful and my dissertation supervisor and personal tutor was amazing. Also the people were really nice and Leicester was a great city.

I also loved the course content!

Having gone to UoL through clearing I was very apprehensive. However, as soon as I got there I felt it was a great fit for me. The campus and facilities were lovely, the lecturers were so knowledgeable and supportive, the content and structure of the course was great, there were many great societies to join, and I made some lifelong friends. Leicester as a city was also the perfect size for me, not too overwhelming but had everything you could want, and a decent night life.
