Still can have a social life

(5)·By Will E·Nursing· Jun 2023
Nursing is always described as very intense and stressful- which it is. However you are still able to have a good social life whilst on this course. The cohort is very small so you get to know everyone really well and the lecturers get to know you well. There is lots of support available. The course is really welll taught and plenty of help is given if required to understand more complex teachings. The uni itself has lots of activities and events to get involved with. Liverpool as a city is so friendly and feels really safe, there's so many places to go and things to do you'll never be bored!

Geography, Graduate

(5)·By Alice B·Geography· Jul 2021
Very fun freshers week we went out every night to different clubs and bars. Explored the city both at night and in the day and yeh freshers fair let us see the opportunities available at the uni My accommodation was slightly pricier than others but close to the city centre so we could just walk into town and didn't have to pay for a bus pass like other off campus accommodation. It was social within my block however difficult to travel between blocks to socialise - I agree this is for safety however made it less sociable. Library had a good selection of material however was slightly run down. It was impossible to get a desk when everyone was revising and always cold! Student union (guild) always had events on and do the best burritos on the world - they support worthy causes too! Sport areas were well run however the university gym was a little small Sometimes we would be studying books that the lecturers themselves had written! All at the forefront of their field and made lectures interactive and fun. Good mix between teaching and questioning. Very lively so many bars and clubs to go to in the evening and also good student deals with cheap entry/ drinks. The city itself is full of culture so you get a nice balance of nights out and interesting days out! Liverpool docks always have fun events running and there are little Christmas markets every year!

Medicine, Year 2

(5)·By Aneeshka N·Medicine· Apr 2019
Freshers week is always great. As I study medicine my course starts in August. However, the university as a whole generally start mid-late September. This allowed me time to settle in and get a head start with work for the new academic year. When I was all comfortable freshers week came and honestly it was perfect. I was less stressed as I was settled into uni life. I went to so many events. There are a range of events from campus to concert square (clubbing district in liverpool). Prices were good and worth the money and managed to make many friends and I managed to see them at every freshers events

The accommodation is incredible. There’s a huge range with most being on campus/5 minute walk away to two accommodations a 15min bus ride away. Where I stayed I had a double bed en-suite with a lounge and kitchen and shared with 5 other girls. It was huge and secure as it was a number of different flats in a building. And the walk was 5 min to campus.

The facilities are great. They are all situated on campus so I don’t need to trek huge distances to get from one place to the next. Luckily by doing medicine all my lectures are in the same theatre so I barely had to move from lecture to lecture. The sports centre is great with a number of classes to take part in as well as fitness centre and swimming pools. There are two huge libraries and have a number of study rooms that we can book to hold revision sessions

I find medicine extremely fascinating and interesting. As the lecturers have passion for their profession they radiate it to us and we enjoy learning. The structure of the course is good and systematic and clearly organised. We have learning objectives for each lecture so we know if certain topics haven’t been covered in the lecture but we still need to read up about it.

I have always grown up in a city in London so it was very easy to adjust to a liverpool. Of course Liverpool is way smaller than London but it’s manageable and has everything I need. I love the docks at liverpool- it is a unique water front feature to the city with many bars and restaurants and rooftop views.

Students must know that medicine is tough. You need to go into it with your eyes wide open. As long as you are prepared for hard work and are determined to succeed to make sure you become a doctor you will be fine. It’s so important you are organised to maintain a good work life balance.

It really is life-shaping. I have already become so independent whilst living in halls. The nightlife is incredible and I have met so many friends in and out of my course. The lectures are interesting and enjoyable too.

Amazing Facilities

(5)·By Ben H·Computer Science· Jun 2023
The facilities at the University of Liverpool are state of the art. There two libraries, each with computer rooms, private study spaces and study rooms. Most of the buildings are modern as well as the lecture theatres, with comfy furniture and spaced out rows of seating. There are also many other facilities such as a sports centre, music rooms, guild courtyard and a guild shop.
