Had a good time here. Some of my buildings and lecture halls were dated, but newer facilities are lovely and spacious enough. Not as many relaxation/sitting spaces as there should be. Libraries are always full, unless you get there extremely early or very very late. read more

Is a well prospected university here in the UK, known for strong academics and research. It has a large diverse international student community, so you will not feel alone. The campus is in the city, which means lots of shops, food and things to do nearby. The teaching is good, and lecturers and really helpful, but sometimes it can feel fast-paced. Accommodations are decent around the city, though can be expensive depending on the area. Weather in Manchester is often rainy and windy, but the city has a lively vibe with lots of events and culture. Overall, is a great choice if you are looking for quality education and vibrant student life. read more

The University of Manchester has great facilities and a well-maintained campus. Clubs and societies are welcoming and well-organized, with regular events that show real effort from the student committee. Communication is good, the careers service is helpful, and any issues like Wi-Fi problems are usually resolved quickly. Overall, a solid place to study and get involved. read more

I've had a great time at uni so far, the social side of university life especially has been amazing, and I am happy with the support I have received and is available to me if I need it. The most disappointing experience from the uni has been the lectures themselves, some of which are delivered in an often time amateur powerpoint format with little to no structure. This is less than the top-of-the-line education that is advertised for my course, although it is worth mentioning lecture quality varies widely and some lectures are outstanding. read more

The campus is really nice, it has a lot of different places to study and explore. The location is also really good, you can walk to the city center and the most popular places of the city from uni.
