Nice area the university are very helpful and the course is very interesting
Lovely uni, take care of their students with any issues, good prices around campus and lots of things to do
better than other universities
I regret choosing to study at UCLAN. My course was very unorganised and I didn't feel prepared enough for the assignments given.
Great uni very wholesome and great support by staff and students
i absolutely love it here, couldn't recommend enough
Amazing Atmosphere. The staff are always ready to help you!
Great place friendly environment and new facilities
There are lots of things to do on campus other than study. Due to societies and the students Union it is quite easy to meet new people. The level of teaching I would say is above average for my course
UCLan has been very accommodating to me, especially as an international student. If I have a problem, everyone is prepared to either help me directly or lead me to a person who could help.
Some aspects are nice and some are not
The university has been good, but due to shutting uni buildings over the weekend and earlier during weekdays, work cannot be completed has made computing my degree incredibility difficult due to reduced access to specialist rooms. Disappointing move from the uni.
It’s a great campus, faculty are supportive, lots of great places on campus to hang out and study and everyone is super helpful
Great uni! Only annoying thing is media factory is no longer open at weekends
Have really enjoyed studying and entertainment throughout my time here.
New facilities are opening to improve and update current buildings
As much as I love preston and the amazing student accomodation. The teaching is not up to standard. Wouldn't recommend for nursing course here. Not much structure put in place and lessons are nit in much detail.
All the staff are so lovely and welcoming - it was very easy settling in during my first week.
I am in my final year and studying here has been pretty good. During Covid things weren't the best but considering the times things were done as best as could be and now that everything is steadily going back to normal, being on campus is great.
Everyone is very friendly and there is loads of social events to join
good uni, good courses. i like it here.
Not got any complaints so far. It's not a huge campus but I like that. Library is good for study. New student centre is great for advise and services as well as a great spot to meet up for group projects. Student union building is really great, Starbucks on campus is nice. Course is good however very unorganised and unscheduled. Frustrating for someone who needs structure to focus on studies. Good facilities for my course and been able to use them every time I need. Staff are friendly and easy to talk to.
Wifi can be a bit of a hassle at official accommodations, however great university choice!
good but not the best at all. student ambassadors are a joke don't work for them they talk about you behind your back negatively
UCLan is a nice uni. I have good opportunities here, and I feel very supported by the teachers
Good place to study, met some amazing people.
Supportive staff who are always willing to help. Incredible SU team who represent students well and respond to our grievances. Have a bus to take students home from the library if studying done until late
Uclan has been a good university to me so far, theres plenty of clubs and activitys to do in your spare time and the staff normally goes the extra mile to help you out if you have issues.
It is a decent university, there is general support and resources you need to be successful.
Very good university with decent facilities
Can’t argue with uclan truly love the place
This university is one of a kind very professional and warm welcoming, everything about it is amazing the society’s the atmosphere and even the educational aspect of the community, I rate this so much that friends I knew at college have changed universities to come here from my recommendation.
Satisfied with the university and in particular the dental school
I enrolled at UCLan after two years at a different University because I did not feel like I was receiving a high standard of education. Wish I'd known about UCLan sooner.
Overall good but there should be more non-class activities and services
Amazing! incredible staff and services. Buildings are modern and accessible and plenty of social areas. The library is brilliant too!
The university as a whole is okay. Your experience will depend on the course you are taking.
The university is great and I don't have a lot to complain about it. I adore my tutors and since I am studying Games Design, I wish there were better computers and better mouse pads for us, because the ones we were provided with are too small.
Great buildings to study and generally good and accommodating support for students.
Good, well rounded experience. I’m happy here.
Good student support and good sport centre
Great student life with lots of staff around campus to help at any time
UCLAN: Great uni to study medicine. Faculty members are so nice!
Good uni, lecturers are always helpful and have good experience
The university as a whole is brilliant. There could be improvements in places to study as there is a few places but not many to plug your own laptop in. The buildings are all easy to locate and the lecturers are always friendly and helpful. The mental health services are easy to use and readily available
Great social spaces and helpful staff especially the school of medicine as they’re always ready to help
The most enjoyable experience I have had in education despite returning as a mature student and studying a field I had not previously explored.
Very good college, modern facilities and nice teaching environment
Great university, beautiful campus and friendly people all around.
Best university with best facilities and best opportunities.
Good facilities and good teaching just wish it was more accessible for students to use facilities that aren’t necessarily specific to their course I.e. video recording equipment etc
Uclan is very accessable for all students. There is a large section for student wellfare, and a new building for student services. Most of the campus is close together and on some days and times do have a shuttle to the Uclan Sports Arena. The downside to this is there is no direct bus and can be a hard to get to on foot which google maps might send you down a private footpath. I can't say I have used the career cervces yet so it would be unfair to mark them down. Internet is good overall through out campus but I have had issues the odd time.
Uclan is fabulous. They are really supportive for students
Good university and friendly staff. Great social life and amazing medical program
Ok so far although a lot of things could be made better !
Absolutely brilliant university. Super clean and modern with amazing tutors and a wide range of societies to chose from. Could not be happier with my experience so far!
my professors are lovely and the buildings are nice, campus is small so everything is close by however the wifi is unreliable and the uni-owned accommodations are awful, highly recommend going private
University has very good open areas for studying and socialising
The university has new modern buildings and offers quality courses that other universities don’t tend to offer
The campus is great and not too big so it is easy to get around. Those in the SU are always there to help.
Having done my masters here I can say it's the best uni I've been to. Over and above during covid 👍
good uni, think there could’ve been more support available through covid though.
Bad experience from staff (tutors and doctors) to University organizations 3 years of experience! lying to students, Unprofessional staff and doctors, very disorganized and the Student Union doesn’t do anything at all!! I study at Burnley campus.
A university that cares about making sure students get the best university experience but also the best possible education. The Staff are always there to help in any way they can, the campus and facilities are state of the art and the student union is always standing in support of the students. I did four years at UCLan and I wish I could relive those four years again.
Campus improvements are great and the new engineering building is great for the engineering school
Had only good experiences at the university
A good, developing modern university. Was very pleased with my studies at the MA, and was more than happy to return for PhD. The TESOL team is, by far, among the best.
Great uni, made great friends. Has amazing opportunities.
I have seen some of my best years at UCLan!
I really enjoyed my time in Uclan and the service in general has been so nice.
The university has a wide range of clubs and societies for students to join and facilities for students to use
Enjoy my course, the tutor and lecturers are very supportive when I have any question on it.
Great staff and facilities. The campus is modern and everything is within walking distance.
Decent university, still feels incomplete and I wouldn’t say the university campus is either innovative, welcoming or modern and Preston is a rather lacklustre city, however the course I am on is great.
The University of Central Lancashire is a great place to be, with the millions of pounds investment it will become even better. Great campus facilities, good location and great culture.
Tutors are lovely, the facilities are good :)
Good university to attend for certain subjects
Extremely welcoming university, with great resources as well as a great social atmosphere
University is helpful especially during lockdown
There’s a lack of facilities around campus for those in certain buildings meaning you have to go across campus just to sit with friends. The WiFi connection is very poor.
Good staff but need more events
Great uni, didn't spend much time in any clubs so I don't have much of an opinion on that
The uni feels great. Everyone in the area is nice and it feels safe. Due to covid i cant really review the uni experience just yet.
UCLAN has been great during the pandemic keeping us informed with new updates and procedures.
Due to covid the year was terrible but some lecturers are sound
Great experience and a very nice student city
School of medicine is amazing!
Preston campus is easily accessible
The school of medicine is great but the other facilities for an overall university experience is average
Good university and WiFi in the library. Staff are great
Love my Uclan experience, great tutors!
Experience halted due to the pandemic but overall its been a good year. The campus is quite nice and all clubs, societies and especially the student union are of great help.
I think the university has handled teaching quite well this year, despite the pandemic
Great univeristy! Staff are amazing! going to miss studying here!
great university in England close to Manchester!
Open and spacious, plenty of social facilities and the studying facilities are also great
Hate the university and moved to another one.
Obviously not what we expected this first year. But felt fully supported.
It’s a very diverse university with a lot of support for students and excellent facilities
Great university with great support team
