Fantastic Union and Societies, shame about the Wifi.
Love the uni! Great location and so many opportunities! The facilities such as the library and gym are great, fruity Friday at the union isn't bad either !
I didn't make many friends at Uni, but I do have a bird now and a house on the way. I've also managed to scrounge myself a half decent car.
You can have a great time studying at this uni. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Everyone wants you to have great time at uni, so your job is only to find what you would like to do (societies)
So huge you feel very lonely sometimes
campus amazing and easy to find way round even though you do spend most time in building that your subjects taught in. havent taken much advantage of societies but all seem well run and passionate. joined the ski society to go on the ski trip and that was amazing! union good from what i hear. careers service amazing, so many talks held and lots of people to ask. wifi amazing all round campus including the gym and all libraries.
The university itself is beautiful and the support off admin staff is unreal however i felt that sometimes the tutors were less than forthcoming with being of assistance with having witness arguing and clear breakdown of professional staff relationships due to a groups final mark which is very unprofessional. I graduate this year and have been waiting for a mark which is now 2 days late and am incredibly fed up!!
The free WiFi is better than the one I pay for at Concept Place.
Leeds has been a great experience as an international student. Great, helpful teaching staff who go out of their way to help. Great facilities and beautiful accessible campus just a few minutes from the city centre. One of the best student unions in the country as well.
Great university with excellent facilities for students, including academics, clubs & societies and sports. I'm glad I chose to study at Leeds
Been excellent thus far, top institution, social side well compliments the top academics.
I LOVE LEEDS SO MUCH great socially, great academically, great sport-ally... except in rugby at varsity
The University is incredible, it has everything you could ask for and all within a small distance from each other.
so far it's been good loads to do and so many society's!
Exactly what I look for in uni.
I hated every second of being at leeds. I had student finance issues and I received no info from the uni at all until I moved into my halls and by that time I was behind on half the stuff I needed to do to register as a student. Long story short, even though the fact I didn't get student finance was the universities fault for not dealing with me through clearing the way they were supposed to, I was stuck with £6k debt I was told I had until the end of February to pay out of my own pocket (it was January when I had this dumped on me). They don't care about you as students they see you as customers. Majority of students not very friendly, staff are mediocre at best. I turned down Edinburgh to go to leeds and that is so far the biggest mistake of my life. Avoid leeds uni, literally anywhere else is better.
Really friendly uni, in a nice setting. Staff, for the most part, are very helpful and supportive. The careers centre provides excellent assistance when it comes to looking for part-time jobs.
Amazing uni with amazing nightlife.
I came to Leeds an introvert and I leave first year a confident being who loves life and is always happy
Leeds has an amazing city centre campus, great location, facilities and uplifting environment. Opportunities wise they are second to none. I have partaken in international trips with university charities, completed a year studying abroad and now I am currently on a fully funded summer school in Salamanca for a month learning Spanish. Thanks so much Leeds!
Best students union! Lots of career opportunities and career fairs!
The best time ever... Loved every moment.
Great societies to choose from
Leeds is a fantastic university with plenty of career opportunities and activities to be involved in! Picking leeds was the best choice and I wouldn't change it at all
An amazing university, in a great city.
My first year at Leeds has been amazing. The lecturers are great. The campus is gorgeous. Accommodation is nice and I have no complaints. The best decision I've ever made was to come to Leeds.
It's indescribable just perfect i can't put it into words
University of Leeds was the best choice I ever made!
Best years of my life have been spent here!
Fantastic university with great facilities and city. Best in the country.
A city with great character supported by a vibrant and research intensive University
Absolutely love my university, they're really working hard to ensure that all of these boxes are filled to a great standard.
Got here through clearing, couldn't be more pleased! It is the perfect combination of being a genuine campus, but is right next to the centre of a major city. Hyde park/ headingly is a really fun place to live in later years.
Leeds has the best community feel whilst having the city at its doorstep
After my first year at Leeds, I can confidently say that I have had the most incredible year of my life thus far. The opportunities available are endless and the facilities are second to none. The university is constantly investing to ensure that students are provided with the best possible education (this can be seen through the brand new Laidlaw Library and the investment plans to expand the already amazing students union). In addition to this, the quality of teaching is superb: lecturers and tutors are always readily available and the support network I have received has been invaluable. Leeds as a city is also a great place to live, comprising of a vibrant community and many fun places to go. I am so happy to have chosen Leeds and am sure that there are very few universities with similar opportunities and collegiate atmosphere to help students plan for the future.
Great university with great support for students to go with the excellent teaching
It's a great campus with so many facilities, clubs, societies and events.
Leeds University is a diverse, humble, yet prestigious institution. The students are friendly and the city is vibrant. The university does not discriminate and seeks to further the education of those from less advantaged and diverse backgrounds-for example, the access to Leeds module. The university itself has a superb campus with many beautiful buildings and elements from each subject taught there are splashed around.
The friendliest and happiest campus to be part of. The work is tough but also enjoyable. The whole experience could not come any better than the university and City of Leeds.
Best university in the whole wide world!!
I'm an international student and I could say that I actually do feel like home when I'm in Leeds! I am so glad I chose Leeds university. There are a lot of support groups especially for international students, making sure that everything goes in place for us also making us feel comfortable knowing that we're far from where our family members are. I had so much fun in my first year in Leeds
Leeds is a wonderful university with lots of opportunities for their students.
Absolutely love the students union, great facilities and events always on. I have even been able to get a job doing what I love from my course and it's only been one year, best year of my life.
A great University. Campus university based right by the city centre means everything is together and easy to find.
The campus and union are amazing although lack of computers and dodgy wifi does let it down slightly
Wouldn't go anywhere else. Best experience I could have
LUU Makes the University of Leeds the most amazing university to be part of. Genuinely, an incredible community, fantastic to be part of - and really helps you to Love your Time at Leeds. Thanks Leeds University Union!
It's ite but tries to be too cool, eg not selling bottled water is just bloody inconvenient. Big uni and good facilities and really close to the city which is great. Also a huge left wing bias throughout the whole uni so be prepared to be made to feel like a piece of s*** if you're not a raging liberal / socialist.
Best uni with brilliant opportunities, always something to do, loads of societies and a brilliant SU with a fantastic club night at Friity
Lots of cafes across campus and good facilities in most places. Any changes that need to be done are either in process or about to have work started ie. SU. Career opportunities in the union are only advertised once a year and you have no idea when this is. Good, fast wifi available EVERYWHERE on campus
Student union has lots going on. Societies don't do as many socials as I'd hoped (even when they said they would). Internet is awful, can only connect through a wire in my room. At uni it is good though.
Sick university, best nightlife ever and best hockey team in the world Pearson out *drops mic*
Union is amazing - it has absolutely everything you need and they're still going to refurbish it into something better in the summer. Lots of well placed, well stocked libraries and a be one on the way. Careers centre is always open and hosting events and things. Wifi is good and all over campus but it could be quicker in terms of download speed and speed of initial connection. So many societies - literally anything you could think of we have it and if not we have the opportunity to create it!
Fantastic uni. Very glad I chose it
Best choice of my life going to Leeds. Be prepared to see some of the most edgy people ever, other than the eBay shoppers, it's great!
Everything is brilliant really. My friends are jealous of how awesome it is. We only have complaints about little things here at Leeds, and when I hear other people talk about their unis it really seems like we've got the best, easily.
Fantastic uni, I couldn't have picked better. The union is fantastic and there's so much to do and get involved in with societies and events. Also a great careers website/volunteering opportunities website and department. Beautiful campus.
Good university with good teaching and opportunities and extremely social atmosphere with a variety of nightlife.
Awesome uni! So much fun and so many libraries too! It seems like the perfect balance!
a nice campus with lots of places to study and socialise
A campus uni 10 minutes walk from the city, you get the best of both worlds. First class facilities and quality educators as well as a very diversed student body, I'm glad I picked this uni. And it has the best student union in the UK!
Leeds is amazing! It is in the best location in the city and also the country making it so easy to see friends elsewhere. Nightlife is insane, and there's also so many nice pubs and bars and restaurants for chilled evenings. The uni is beautiful and there's so much positivity around campus, and there's everything I wanted from a good gym, libraries, student union and social areas
Loved my time at uni of Leeds - my course (Medical Sciences) was brilliant and made a good group of friends from my course. The opportunity to try new things through clubs and societies is huge - one of the best student unions in the UK! Plus overall a really nice city - particularly with all the new developments (e.g. trinity) popping up.
The internet is very poor although I think that is same for any university using eduroam. I can not recommend Leeds as a university city enough. It's a fantastic place!
adore my university. First class education and a brilliant place to be!
Good uni, good courses and very nice students.
Leeds Uni
Great union and societies Campus within the city (best of both worlds) Good accommodation
Cons?
A lot of joint honours courses offered but parented by only 1 of the school leading to bad communication issues
