enjoy studying here, would recommend
Amazing resources and great people around me
Best university to learn new things and develop your experience into next level
Great opportunities offered through various events
The university is okay and has good facilities. However the WiFi is generally unreliable and is prone to stop working even in lectures which is very unhelpful when taking notes
Overall good experience. Some more modern buildings and lecturing but other issues such as staff absences, fewer learning hours, and lacking academic support in some areas.
Very good experience so far. Everything been good
Well maintained, could do with places being open till later in SU and prices being cheaper as a lot of it is expensive for such small portions
Very nice uni, very friendly always a lot to do on campus very happy I chose it for university
Being in leicester for the past 3 years has been one of the best experiences in my life. The campus, city and village has become my home.
My experience at the University of Leicester has been overwhelmingly positive. The classes have been engaging, and the teachers have consistently demonstrated a commitment to ensuring students understand the material. Their enthusiasm and expertise have created a supportive learning environment that has allowed me to thrive. I have also been impressed by the university's career department, which has provided invaluable guidance on career development, job search strategies, and interview preparation. The staff's willingness to sit down with students and offer personalized advice has been particularly helpful. While some of the university's buildings may be older, they remain functional and comfortable. Overall, I am grateful for the opportunities I have had at the University of Leicester, and I am confident that the skills and knowledge I have gained will serve me well in my future endeavors.
University of Leicester is a thriving university with lots of personal support and great facilities, especially the study spaces like the library. Places to eat on campus are excellent serving non expensive and delicious food, there is lots of widely advertised support from financial to mental health. I would recommend.

Not a bad experience at Leicester
The best parts of the Summit are the kind staff and comfortable rooms.
It is a very nice place to stay and good value for money
Love it !!!Love the accommodation and tabby is so helpful xx
Good to study here. Like it. But
Pretty campus and good resources
It's good so far so good , accommodation accessible
The campus is fine, good teaching
University of Leicester has already made me feel so welcome, there are so many choices of societies for everyone’s hobbies, and at these I’ve met some of my friends for life.
Overall okay experience, could be better food options
Great university, loads of support and the facilities are kept well and good quality
Very good social and support within the uni
Been here for 3 years now. Abid is amazing always goes above and beyond. And management is also amazing.
Very good university when it comes to quality of the courses provided.
great space and active environment and engagement for students
Multicultural university with specialised course offerings
Personally I find some aspects of the university to be a little underwhelming but generally it's okay.
Love it here. It’s so welcoming and warm
Good uni. Everything is up to standard
Not enough support for actil studies
The university is good overall.
Beautiful place where we meet new people to connect with and learn about academic as well as other people culture.
The campus is very nice visually, and the buildings are generally modern and very sleek. There are some buildings that are old and do not reflect the University well. The library is very good but they need more space as there isn't anywhere enough facilities for the students.
Great experience and facilities are good
good campus helpful however a bit strict with attendance
University is a really nice place . Just that the business school building is far from the main campus
University lectures and surroundings are wonderful
One of the best university for geology.
Reception staffs are very kind
The University of Leicester has been an incredible experience for me, and I can’t recommend it enough. Societies are diverse and vibrant, offering everything from academic clubs to sports and creative groups. The societies have been a fantastic way to make new friends and develop skills outside of the classroom. The campus is a perfect blend of modernity and tradition, with stunning green spaces and state-of-the-art facilities like the David Wilson Library and the Centre for Medicine. It’s easy to navigate, and there’s always a peaceful spot to relax. The Student Union is the heart of campus life. With a huge variety of events, volunteering opportunities, and support services like the Student Advice Centre, it’s easy to get involved and feel connected. Finally, Career Services at Leicester are exceptional. The one-on-one guidance, CV workshops, and networking events helped me secure an internship, giving me the real-world experience needed to kick-start my career.
It's a great experience to study in this university.
very resourceful and equipped for students
such a good uni overall and very inclusive! as uni of year in 2025, its well deserved
best experience ever. i am hoping i can stay another4 years
I’m honestly surprised Leicester isn’t higher on the rankings. It’s so open and welcoming and everyone is so kind. My closest friend I met by saying hi on the uni bus back from campus lol. I just finished my first semester but I’m really enjoying it so far!
Is a good university and great environment
The university is nice and well equipped, although building maintainance is lacking. Despite this, the research culture and the people in here make the experience worth your while.
It is a great university to study at
Good overall with decent social spaces
The staff here are very professional and helpful. I think the facilities when it comes to career opportunities can be improve. Since most of international students are new here and they don't have much idea about how the job hunt for part time works here, also introduce an activity where international and local students take part in it and try to understand each other culture and merge with each other, i went to Pakistan society in Uni Bob burgers building and there we meet with local pak community and we did some play and activities, it was fun and definitely helped us to communicate with the local pak community here and boost our confidence too
Overall good experience. No problem.
My university is good, lecturers are amazing and sweet and the campus is always clean and a great learning environment overall.
Having a great experience so far! Everything is great
Very good experience at university
Good university. Very welcoming, great facilities and infrastructure
Very supportive, lots of opporunitues
As I am a international student in this university,I can say everything is perfect in this university.
Looking back at my time at the University of Leicester as I enter my third year, I can confidently say it’s been an incredible journey. I've thoroughly enjoyed diving deep into my academic program, which has really expanded my knowledge and skills. Getting involved in campus life has been a highlight; I've joined some fantastic clubs and met so many amazing people along the way. Exploring Leicester has been a blast too—I’ve loved visiting the historical sites, relaxing in the parks, and trying out the local cuisine. It’s been a well-rounded experience that I wouldn’t trade for anything!
There are a lot of opportunities for all students and it has been a really interesting journey so far.
Really good facilities love it
Amazing time, met a lot of awesome people and the lessons are valuable.
Overall it’s decent, there aren’t any overall complaints it’s just a bit dull
I thoroughly enjoyed my MSc Accounting and Finance journey at ULSB. The programme exceeded my expectations, providing a comprehensive understanding of accounting and finance principles, practices, and cutting-edge research.Absolutely, I would recommend ULSB's MSc Accounting and Finance program is ideal for aspiring professionals.
Really lovely place awesome for students to live.
Good facilities and services. Everyone is always willing and happy to help, and it is a good location.
Good in general. Best thing about the university is sports clubs and societies. Parts of campus are really nice such as the library, the gym, the su, and the buildings closer to the gym. However some of the other blocks such as george porter, charles wilson and the bennet building look a bit run down from the outside despite being alright on the inside.
The doesn’t work in a lot of locations and particularly in the library however the Students Union seem to extra take care in the events that they organise.
Overall, the school has a wide range of options for various individuals on campus.
A few buildings are not modernised and are very old which can be seen as basic and not meeting future students expectations.
The campus is quite good. I would say the internet is a bit on and off, on campus but overall still very good! Thank you
The range of societies is amazing, there’s something for everyone ranging from sports to language and culture centred societies. There are many great facilities such as the David Wilson Library and the Freemen’s commons kitchen with pool tables! There are many career services and the Wi-Fi is very fast.
The university campus is just amazing. Everything is up to date. Even the facilities provided at the University is excellent. As an International student, I find the whole environment of the university including the facilities like wifi, career services, societies etc is amazing. Even, the instructors are so cooperative, including personal tutors. I am having a good experience here...!! Thanks to the UOL..
Love the university! It’s a great university filled with open and friendly students as well as great staff
Great university. Couldn’t have made a better choice.
The University wifi is not the best, doesn't tend to work a lot of the times especially in the library which isn't ideal when wanting to study.
I had a fantastic experience with Luke at Upperton Road. He is incredibly patient and a true multitasker. Despite handling multiple requests at once, he always took the time to listen and address every concern. Luke's problem-solving skills are outstanding—he helped me find the perfect room and also resolved a room issue my friend was having. He was always approachable, offering practical solutions and guidance. Luke's dedication to ensuring we were satisfied made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend working with him
Good uni. Im doing histroy, great course here. Been making great friends
Enjoy going to the University of Leicester! The faculty is supportive, and I appreciate the welcoming atmosphere.
lots of support is available for student to help them get settled in and many many events have been carefully thought out by the team here at Leicester. There is a variety of societies so there’s definitely one for everyone
Had no problems with my stay here would recommend this accommodation
It’s a a good uni. The lecturers don’t help as much as they say they will based on my experience. The library is good because it’s 24/7.
It is am amazing experience!!!!!
University of leicester has been great. really interesting modules and the staff in the criminology department are outstanding
Enjoyed experience, not many social things - you do them once and don’t need to do it again
Excellent facilities , and value for money
Overall nice experience and great management.
Great university.! Having an amazing time here
Really a good University for perusing aerospace engineering
Good to pursue a master’s here
There was many opportunities to get involved
It's been a good experience so far, the career job opportunity isn't that supportive for international students. The university doesn't have much to offer in that sense. Could do a lot better.
University Library is very convenient as it is now 24/7 so we can study based on our suitability
good environment. really enjoyed my time here
A good university for quality learning
