Back in 2016 our freshers week was 2 weeks long. In our first week we only had lectures but in our second week we started having seminars too and that made it difficult to keep up with the course material from the very beginning. I believe they have changed that now. I lived in Cryfield halls, which was the cheapest accommodation at the time. We had a lot of people per kitchen which inevitably led to a lot of mess and people fighting over their kitchenware. But it also made us a lot more social and always there was always someone else in the kitchen so you never felt lonely. Student union was the worst space on campus. Did not wanna be inside the building for more than five minutes. It was always very dark and the interior was very unwelcoming. Despite great potential for study space the vibe just pushed everyone away. Lecture capture was really useful. Even if you did go to every single lecture it was very handy to have the recording in case you wanted to go back to a specific thing the lecture said. The city was deaaaaaad. Warwick is a campus university so it is in the middle of nowhere. The closest city is Coventry which was dodgy and nobody wanted to ever hang out there. Leamington is a much nicer town but it is so small that it only has 2 clubs and one bar where events would be hosted.

A great course in a lovely area

(5)·By ruth g·Chemistry· Oct 2018
I chose to study here because of the lovely campus, and it definitely didn't disappoint. Both my course and the lecturers that taught it were incredible - I still use what I learnt at work today. I made some really close friends here and loved the area so much that I've settled in the West Midlands since graduating.

Sociology, Year 3

A beautiful campus with lots of facilities. A fabulous arts centre and great places to eat. The staff are helpful and friendly and the lecturers are experts in their field bringing real life experience to the classroom. There's a relaxing and welcoming feel to the campus and it has great travel links as well as a free shuttle bus from the local train station and to get you across campus. The food and snacks are tasty but there is plenty of places to great your own food or make hot drinks. There is plenty of places to study and the library has a variety of study options.

I have found my time at Warwick really enjoyable. The subject is really interesting and stimulating. The campus is a lovely place to spend my time and the accommodation is brilliant. The nightlife is also great, and with leamington and Coventry to go out in, I'm never short of a night out. The sports clubs are also brilliant and really social. The student union respects our rights as students and is constantly looking to improve our time here.

It was amazing. The events were so much fun It's pretty comfortable and clean. It's extremely safe The facilities are amazing and easily accessible. They're extremely well maintained The course is well structured and relevant Coventry isn't a very nice place in terms of quality of life. I live in leamington spa and it's amazing.

Business Studies / Management, Year 3

(5)·By Joseph C·Business· Jul 2021
It was really good. The university and SU organised a number of different events to allow you to meet new people and find friends The accommodation is great, there are a number of different accommodations to suit a range of socioeconomic backgrounds, and all of them are quite good They're great! All of them are well furnished and modern, and the university continues to invest in them every year The lectures are intellectually stimulating and also designed to be interactive. This results in an engaging work environment where you learn a lot The life there is good, on campus it is quite self contained and allows you to spend more time with fellow students, and in nearby towns there is a great environment and lots of things to do

It was a good experience. At the time there were lots of different events. This allowed me to meet quite a few people which was nice. At the beginning, there was a WhatsApp chat, aiding in meeting people too The uni accommodation was great! It was cleaned on a weekly basis which was nice. The rooms were spacious, kitchen large and overall experience was great. The facilities are great. The library is vast with many available resources. The classrooms are in good condition. Sports areas are always evolving with a new sports centre now developed which is nice to have. The course is interesting because of personal interest. The lectures are well taught and well delivered. City life came into play in 2nd year when living at Leamington Spa. It's a very nice city, buzzing with students, and social life has always been a positive aspect.

Marketing, Year 2

It was an amazing experience overall. Freshers week brought excitement with lot of networking opportunities. The best part I liked was the different types of clubs to choose from. I wanted to choose Polo club and here it was in Warwick cause other universities don't usually have that. It was amazing as University tries to keep different nationalities in these accomodations, which is a great opportunity to make friends from all over the World. Library and sports areas are the key attractions as their infrastructure is massive and many number of students can be there at a same time. Lectureres were very friendly and apart from the studies it help you grow as a change maker as they say in Warwick. City Life was great aswell, as one get a feel of city as well as a small town, which was the best bit for me.

Great - super varied and interesting. A load of fun meeting lots of people and exploring campus. Grata choice for all price points. Certain blocks are more sociable than others which gives you the choice on which suits you best. Plenty of fa ologies available - good library with plenty of work spaces, cafes and bars in campus and a new sports hub Taught by experts in their field and given the opportunity to get involved Leamington is where student tend to live
