Very comfortable place to learn. I never felt out of place or intimidated. Was not part of any societies so I don’t have a comment on that.

Had a amazing 3 years study at Sheffield Hallam the union facilities is the only thing that lets it down
Hi, I'm glad you've had a brilliant time at Hallam. Sorry you've felt let down by the union, we will feed this back to the team at the Student's Union. Thanks, Bridget
Very very good university with an excellent balance between maintaining a social life and getting a good degree.

No support throughout university, spent much of my time alone. Did not enjoy it one bit. Spoke to the careers advisor, appointment should’ve been 45 minutes lasted 2 minutes shocking.
Hi, I'm sorry to hear you've had these experiences at Hallam, it must be frustrating for you. Have you now graduated? Perhaps speak to the careers advisor again and explain you need some more time, we do offer support for graduates. careers@shu.ac.uk Thank you for your feedback, it is appreciated, Bridget
City campus is very nice with modern rooms. Students union has fun events on and good WiFi!
Hi, I'm glad you've benefitted from the facilities at City campus and also enjoyed the students union! Thanks, Bridget
Staff are supportive, most campus facilities are new or recently refurbished. Have joined and taken part in a wide range of societies such as Anime or Model United Nations. The Students Union itself however at time of writing is incredibly poor, however a referendum passed this academic year to attempt to resolve many of the issues, although it's building is still unfit for purpose in my opinion. Fast, Free WiFi is available throughout the University and the Careers service was invaluable to me when attempting to source a work placement.
Hi, I'm glad you've benefitted from the support from the staff and are enjoying the societies. Thank you for your comments on the students union, we welcome all types of feedback here at Hallam. Thanks, Bridget

Hey, I am glad you've enjoyed your time at uni. What course did you do? I'm sorry you've not had the best experience with the careers service.

Amazing atmosphere from people but the careers advice is shocking they just tell you to email firms which I had already done and get Linkin which already had been done. The Internet Is super quick and great. However the canteen in collegiate is EXTORTIONATE we're meant to be student
Hi, I'm happy you've benefitted from the positive atmosphere at Hallam and the speedy internet. I'm sorry you've not had the best experience with the careers service - I am sure that they will listen to your concerns if you get in touch with them again and explain your situation careers@shu.ac.uk I will feedback to the team at Collegiate about the prices, do keep looking out for deals on campus, such as £1 Wednesday.

This is lovely to hear, I'm glad you've benefitted from the support available at Hallam. Yes - everything in walking distance makes things very convenient! Thanks, Bridget :)
Univeristy is good, and the facilities are top quality and the atmosphere is nice. However as a first year I am yet to even go to the students union as there are no interesting events on and there are not many societies in comparison to some other univeristies.
Glad you've had a great experience at Hallam and taken advantage of our facilities! Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Student's Union, it's always good to hear all types of views to help us improve! Thanks, Bridget
Only thing I would change is the student Union - building is shocking and as a result nobody uses.it

I'm pleased you think so! And yes there are so many things to do in Sheffield to keep you entertained. Thanks, Bridget

Would prefer if collegiate was connected to city campus

Good experience overall, could be better tho
Great to hear! We are interested in all kinds of feedback, what things could be improved here? Thanks, Bridget
This university had great facilities and very friendly and helpful staff. After graduating at hallam and doing further study at a red brick university I have realised to appreciate the good quality services found at Hallam.
Yes, we are proud of the facilities we have here at Hallam. I'm glad you've benefitted from the services here too! Thanks, Bridget
There are 2 campuses which can be a hassle. Also if you are unfamiliar with a building that you are in for a lesson it can be a pain to find where it is as the campus is lots of different buildings. This is due to the nameing and numbers used to lable rooms etc is not very easy to understand. Seems to be many of clubs and socitiew and the socities are always activly present in the city with nights out and fundraisers etc. Students Union is quite small and not commonly used by students. There is lots of room for improvement especially compared to many other student unions i have visited. Careers service offer lots of resource to aid placement getting, part time job getting and cv building. For my experience they have been great. Internet and wifi can sometimes be a hassle to connect to and you need help to connect the first time.
Hi, thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you've had a brilliant experience with the careers service and I hope it has helped for your future. It is also good to hear that the societies are active in the city. Sorry to hear you've had trouble with navigating the campuses and that you've had difficulty connecting to the internet on occasions. As a university, including the students union, we are open to feedback so if you would like to email enquiries@shu.ac.uk your comments we can look at ways to improve. Thanks, Bridget
Amazing stuff , been loving it
This is lovely feedback to read! I hope it continues. Thanks, Bridget
It’s a really nice, modern and cosy homely feel to it and it made feel very welcome during my first few weeks.
Hi, I'm glad you've had a positive experience at Hallam and it has felt like home for you! Thanks, Bridget
If you’re serious about university, dont go to this joke of a uni. Could easily teach yourself this s*** and the lecturers aren’t anything special so save yourself 9 grand a year
Hi, sorry you've had this experience at Hallam. What course did you do/are you doing? What was the problem with the lecturers? Did you not receive enough support from them? We welcome all feedback and are happy to talk in more detail about how we can help resolve this. Contact us here Thanks, Bridget

I have spent 4 years at Sheffield Hallam University for my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees and would recommend Hallam to anyone. Great facilities, interesting course structure and a strong sense of belonging and pride.
Hi, I'm glad you had a lovely time here, and that you feel a strong sense of belonging and pride- this is something we are really proud of here at Hallam. Thanks, Bridget
Sheffield Hallam don’t like to put their hands in their pockets; no do they like to give credits to students who actually work hard for the duration of their studies. If you want to have to take time off work/out of your further studies to have your graduation, it’s the perfect uni. With graduation in November because they don’t want to have to pay to rent out the city hall in summer. Then when you get to graduation they fail to give credit to the students who have the highest grade overall on their course (wasn’t me so I’m not being bias). It was good when I was there and it’s fair to say I had fun. But now I’ve moved on I can see the areas in which they fail to consider what students want over how much it will cost.
I'm sorry you've had this experience at Hallam, please can you elaborate on "nor do they like to give credits to students who actually work hard for the duration of their studies"? How would this look? I will give this feedback about failing to give credit to highest grade students at graduation to the alumni team so they can address this and make improvements for the future. I'll also let them know about the difficulties some people face with a graduation ceremony in November. I'm glad you had fun when you were here! Thanks, Bridget
