Great student experience due to funding into lots of student buildings.
Haven't used Careers yet, but otherwise the university campus is superb. Students Union is great to go to in between lectures and hold the best club nights too.
Such a wide range of things to choose from, lots of facilities to work and socialise. Wifi is good in certain areas but connection gets lost quite easily.
Student's Union voted best in the country multiple times. Clubs, societies, facilities are all of a high standard. Internet is good. Career opportunities are great as Sheffield has lots of ties with industries of all types.
SU very modern, lots of cafe's/restaurants, facilities excellent
SU is good and the uni buildings are close together
No issues with university as lots available to do and lots of help available
I can't fault it so far. Everyone from the union was so helpful on moving in day and the events they run are too good. The only thing I was slightly disappointed on is they have a soc for everything apart from what I compete in: Windsurfing.
Such a friend,y university, very supportive and so many socials
Love being a mature student here!
Fantastic university, lovely people and a great city to live in!
First year, but loads of positive new experience.
University of Sheff is best place in the world, seriously
Really glad I decided to come to Sheffield. Everyone is really helpful, and there is always something to do. Course is also great.
Even though I'm a fresher I absolutely love it here. Everyone is so friendly and te student union is like a huge family. Thankyou for letting me be part of this!!
Really good experience overall
Turns education into a human experience rather than a one sided one like at school
Beautiful city, amazing course, wonderful people!
The facilites are all brand new for my course, there are always events going on that I can join in on, the students union has everything and more than I could need, and I can get fast wifi anywhere I go.
There has been the recent opening of The Diamond, which has more lecture theaters as well as new labs. There are also lots of clubs and societies, all of which can be found online, as well as being advertised during activities fair and freshers fair. A lot of help has been available in terms of career support and have a whole team dedicated to each disciplinary.
Simply indescribable. Best experience in my life :)
Awesome place with lovely people, who you can tell care about the university and the students in it.
ive just got here but early impressions nice
Can't fault Sheffield. The department I studied at in consistently in the top 5, regularly beating Oxbridge, so the degree is incredibly well respected. With the campus being over the city centre, you can get uni Internet over a very wide range! The SU is the best in the country, the clubs/ Societies are diverse and welcoming. The facilities are world class
Very solid modern and switched on university, but the only exceptional aspect is the students union.
I'm just beginning my third year and I don't want to leave! Sheffield university is an all round winner in my opinion with an incredible variety of socials on offer, the best students union in the country and world class teaching. Sheffield city itself is beautiful and vibrant and has all the facilities you need, yet it feels safe and manages to maintain a community atmosphere.
Fantastic facilities at Sheffield, fantastic city to live in, fantastic career opportunities. INCREDIBLE internet in the Union. 800mbp/s upload speed. Granted we were hard wired in, but that's PHENOMENAL! In regards to clubs and societies, it's thanks to Forge TV that i've found my passion in life, and a career path I want to take. So yes, the clubs and societies are brilliant!
I loved my experience in sheff uni first year and can't wait for second!
Sheffield's literally the only place in the country where you get such an amazing, safe, green city, a University with leading reputation and excellent facilities, combined with a vibrant student social life and nightlife.
I've had the most amazing first year at university and can't wait to return in September!
I love Sheffield and the university has everything I need!
Best degree, best university, best parties, best Students' Union, best city, best experience!
Friendliest University in the UK, great lecturers and tons of opportunities for extra activities in the Union and the greater city.
Friendly, so much usable space, union cares deeply about it's students and does its very best to help them out
The university of Sheffield is a largely supportive institution and offers so many opportunities. The students union is unequaled and I can't imagine a better place to study.
The university is fantastic and Sheffield is an incredible city, I can't imagine ever going to University anywhere else.
Without a doubt the best uni in the UK
A student experience that is welcoming and livley. There is so much to do around campus, which is unlike any university I have visited. The students union and nightlife is incredible adding to an amazing student lifestyle
Accepted via clearing and couldn't find accommodation, university hosted a day to help find housing with people who had similar interests and provided amazing help and attention to detail to a ensure our safety and happiness for a great working environment.
The perfect mix of a campus and city university, an absolutely fantastic SU and amazing facilities. The University and city itself is fantastic, the only small problem is slightly low standards in teaching in my department (Economics). Looking past that though it is fantastic and considering it was my insurance I can't imagine I would have enjoyed Bath (my firm) more than Sheffield.
Sheffield university has a perfect atmosphere for students. Everywhere is reasonably close together and because it's city based, you can pop to the shops whenever you want. The union has everything you need including a shop, multiple food outlets and it's own club nights.
Sheffield is an amazing university to attend. There are so many opportunities for us students including societies, volunteering, part time work and so much more. I would recommend sheffield to anyone.
Amazing students union with its own club! More opportunities and societies than you could ever need, and plenty of sports teams, which has definitely been a highlight for me this year!
Absolutely love the uni and love the city. The chemistry department is very well equipped and has all the chemicals and glassware given to you free of charge (no charge if broken or spilled). Textbooks were also given to chemistry students for free. The union is amazing. A lot of time is spent there. Great atmosphere, great facilities and awesome nights out (Tuesday Club is wicked). Student accommodation was really good, although, its not run by the uni and the company have been known to con people out of a bit of cash. There are loads of great buildings with lots of study space. The IC is a bit crowded but with the new Diamond being built, there should be enough space to accommodate us all. Overall a great uni in a great location. I don't want to leave.
A great university that offers help to all students. Sheffield is one of the best student cities in the country, if not the world. I would recomened it to anyone looking to do a good degree but also have fun and gain life experience.
I could not have chosen a better university, a better city to spend 5 years of my undergraduate life in!
Amazing uni atmosphere with support, fantastic lecturers and great services.
Amazing university!! Unbelievable wouldn't change a thing
I love Sheffield and the university if full of fun people dedicated to their work. The libraries especially the ic is brilliant and always have more than enough books to aid you. Tutors are supportive and try to make sure you achieve the best grade. The modules that I have done so far are always interesting minus one or two but that's the same for everything.
Great uni! Pop tarts is the best night out ever
The University of sheffield has provided me with a great platform to begin my career and has given me numerous opportunities to do various activities of my choice.
Absolutely amazing place to study! Kind and friendly atmosphere and makes you feel just at home! Not to mention the great Union nights out!
Best university by far, great academic and social opportunities with brilliant facilities and people!
Union is amazing, and the English department has such a wide range of topics with really enthusiastic and dedicated lecturers.
Welcoming, friendly, wonderful. You nobody regrets picking Sheffield.
Incredible, some of the greatest years of my life
Best university going. Great place
The best Uni out there for social life, as well as providing excellent facilities and academic as well as non-academic CV boosters.
Great Edu, amazing student experience and fun!
Lovely uni, helpful staff and students. Great social life and academics.
It's been the best 2 years of my life
I've thoroughly enjoyed my time at Sheffield, one of the best unis out there.
I travelled 2000 miles to study and live alone in Sheffield. This experience was my only option at the time. University of Sheffield helped me regain my hope and motivation and I know that the only thing I can control and do well is my career.
Best decision I have ever made was going to Sheffield University. It's fantastic!
Utterly amazing! I couldn't fault it
I absolutely love this university, choosing it was the best desision I've ever made! I honestly never want to leave!
Amazing uni! Can't fault any aspect of it!
Had excellent teaching in mechanical engineering, which has given me several career paths to choose from.
I've had the best first year at Sheffield. Social life is beyond amazing and I made lots of friends really quick. My course is very organised and the lecturers are very experienced. I have gained lots from my course that will help enhance my chances in the career I wish to pursue. The city as well is brilliant, it's a student city which also helps with social life. Overall, my time at the university of Sheffield has been amazing and I can't wait to go back for 2nd and 3rd year.
Best 3 years of my life, cheers Sheff.
It's a friendly atmosphere with people around all the time to deal with queries and problems. The student union facilities are great with well organised club nights as well as shops and sober activities too. As a sports member the facilities are best to non with gym pool and studios
I've had the best three years of my life in sheffield. The city is amazing, the people are lovely and the university is fantastic
Sheffield has everything you could want as a student. For the past three years I've had the best experience I could have had. The nightlife, academics, facilities are all great. Endless opportunities constantly being made available to you.
Ideal place, there is always somewhere to go to when you need help!
Best decision of my life to study here! Amazing first year!
Great range of societies and facilities and the union is very good
Amazing facilities and great student life
There's a reason we win best students union so often!
WiFi was a bit patchy and slow, libraries were always full and were really limited in the amount of popular books (one reference copy for a course of 200). Not many societies and all expect you to pay but barely put on any events or anything.
i love Sheffield, it's a great uni with great opportunities and plenty of places to go out every night of the week
Love being at Sheffield, the union is epic with great club nights most nights and loads of great services to help with any problem. Also love the accommodation for first years, most of it is really new with large rooms and ensuites.
It is a fabulous city and a hard university, Slackers can not continue studying there..
I absolutely love the university of sheffield! I have just finished my first year and I've already had so many opportunities to be involved in the things I love and have met friends for life! I can't imagine being anywhere else!
Had a fantastic first year, enjoyed every minute, roll on year 2
Such an opportunity rich community around the university.
Even though I'm only in my first year going into my second in September, I've had the best experience so far and cannot wait for more memories to be made. Excellent law school also which I am proud to be a part of.
Amazing university! Best experience of my life! Great accommodation, amazing staff, so many things to do and the city is like a home away from home!
Great nightlife, excellent accommodation/campus/facilities, amazing city to live in and an experience you won't forget !
Amazing experience both leisure and academic
This uni and its union are the best in the country
Amazing university with first class facilities, lecturers and professors providing guidance whenever needed. Love the student community - it feels like home away from home!
The facilities are second to none
Sheffield has been absolutely fantastic this year at looking after us when it came to finding accommodation and avoiding dodgy landlords
May be biased but sheffield is the most inclusive, welcoming environment I have ever experienced. Friendly, enthusiastic individuals who know how to work hard and play hard
Not worth the money. Lack of student support and mediocre teaching. Standards dragged down due to the university accepting just about anyone. This also means lectures are often rammed to the full. Not worth the current price of an arts degree.
Great people, great courses, great university.
Fantastic uni, but even better city. Good night life and solid services provided. Wouldn't even think of changing to a different uni.
Just finished first year and had a wonderful year, the degree course was great, there is really good support from the staff and the students union is amazing! They are putting a lot of work into improving the uni, there is always building work going on, and the diamond for the engineering department is set to be brilliant.
Brilliant students union, courses, activities, societies and socials with a fantastic campus in a beautiful city
Couldn't have asked for a better university experience!
