WiFi is excellent on campus nothing to complain about. Rooms are decent but look a bit aged in places and a lot of money for an en-suite. Campus is really good for social spaces and all the bars are within walking distance which is great for a night out. There’s also loads of food places on campus and mini shops which are really convenient read more

The staff and professors are always approachable and supportive, creating a welcoming and inspiring environment. What stands out the most is the university’s strong sense of community. There are countless opportunities for students to get involved in extracurricular activities, from societies to sports teams, and everything in between. The support services are excellent too, offering guidance on everything from academic challenges to personal well-being. Overall, Lancaster University provides a well-rounded and enriching student experience.

A nice cosy university with a collection of lovely shops and cafes for convenience. Many open facilities, bookable or not. Location is less convenient to travel to town, but still a wonderful place to be, with an enjoyable course and support for mental well-being. read more

Campus is fantastic, pretty good wifi connection around most of campus. Very good facilities. The student union do not have enough power or influence to govern the out-of-control pricing of sports facilities and food and drink. They could subsidise more. Student unions at other universities do better. read more

Really good uni and campus, people are great and so are the lecturers. The societies are really good because of their own doing, the student union is really poor and doesn’t support new societies or any societies that aren’t rugby or football. read more

I love studying at Lancaster University and I'm so glad I chose it as my first choice. The campus facilities are great- plenty of study spaces, a well-equipped library (not just books!), a variety of places to eat and drink on campus, good indoor and outdoor sports facilities, and lots of outside green space. There are numerous sports clubs and societies to get involved with and it's a great way to make friends. The staff are really helpful. Everyone is so friendly and makes you feel welcomed. I definitely recommend Lancaster University! read more
