I had a great experience studying at the Information School. The academic staff were friendly and supportive throughout my entire MSc degree.

The University of Sheffield is a public research university in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It received its royal charter in 1905 as successor to the University College of Sheffield, which was established in 1897 by the merger of Sheffield Medical School, Firth College and Sheffield Technical School
University of Sheffield is awesome. I've studied at three universities and Sheffield uni is the best by far. The best educational experience of my life!
Everything was good really enjoyed the University
Best uni hands down. Everyone else is in denial
Great university through and through
great city and great university
Very satisfied about all the facilities!
The wifi in Diamond is quite bad. Can't really do much
To find out what us students at UoS get up to (supposedly), look up our confessions page, Sheffessions, if only to laugh at our drama.
Facilities are great, various services are pretty helpful in all ways. Academically though, would not recommend the School of East Asian Studies at all really.
Very friendly environment, amazing service from both stuff and students
Great town, fantastic history department, excellent facilities, some of the best times of my life!
I think that Sheffield is pretty cool and I suggest you come chill here
amazing uni, amazing nightlife, loads of societies, plus its a russel group

The student union & societies make it extremely worthwhile going to Uni of Sheffield.
Its the bets uni!!!I love it!!!!
the best uni in the whole of the U.K. All my friends who come n visit agree
Best exam facilities in the world
Lovely uni and are very helpful. There are so many opportunities given by the su and they support you so much in those roles
Couldn’t ask for more from my university experience
Amazing inclusive and forward thinking uni
Wifi in ranmoor is a bit trash, but everywhere else its much better, Student union is the best, has pretty much everything you need as a student.
Has a great focus on student life and satisfaction, with an incredible academic reputation and great support.
Amazing Uni, great student experience, great facilities, great career prospects, an amazing city that's just the right size... there's nowhere I'd rather be
Quality atmosphere, as a medical student I think the teaching could improve. Student life is decent and there's always a sick night out.
MORE Libraries they are all full during exam season!!!
Lots of events! Just been to the colour run and it is fascinating!
Great Uni offering lots of study space. Awesome staff and even better students. Stunning localisation, great place to do sports or to join one of hundreds societies.
My first year at University of Sheffield has been nothing short of amazing in terms of the quality of Education we have been given, support from tutors, and the facilities available. I had high expectations for the Student Union, given it was ranked #1 in the UK for the past 10 years, and I was not disappointed.
Fantastic Uni! Friendly people, friendly staff. So many opportunities and clubs to get involved in and reach your full potential!!
Amazing university with great facilities and lovely people. Fantastic city and peak district is incredible.
THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD IS A WORLD RENOWNED ACADEMIC CENTRE THAT IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE TOPS IN SEVERAL AREAS OF EDUCATION
the best uni ive been to across the country for sports and nightlife
Best student's union of the decade
Amazing campus, such a vibrant city and overall great uni.
The uni is great but the wifi is just like all my acquaintances, lasts no more than a few minutes.
There are many opportunities, good accommodation, very nice place to be. Also even though it's a city uni, everything is close together which gives it a somewhat campus feel.
Itense work but a good laugh. Don’t make the mistake of not joining any societies or sports like I did because you will end up with no mates lol
Amazing, fantastic, mind blowing!
Best choice in University, love the community feel I get here and the nightlife and city is amazing
Excellent university!! I actually cannot imagine myself going to a different one!!! The only reason 4 star for facilities is the 1st year accommodation is a mile away
This is a great university in the north of England.
very good univeristy and i would recommend it to all
Perfect. One of the best 100 universities in the world
good place to study and make friends
Some departments are better than others
Alright uni but i get the feeling that if you dont do ket or like drum&bass you'll never truly belong
Close to Sheffield city center
Probably the worst 6 months of my life were spent at this uni. Accomodation was sterile and desperately lonely. Course was academically competent but isolated. I found myself unable to establish a decent friendship groups given lectures of 200+ students and seminars with different people everytime. Support I got from the SU and other university facilities was blunt and largely unhelpful. Nightlife here, though plentiful, is horrendously overrated and outside of the university faciliites the city depressing at best. Avoid.
Some degrees make more use of the facilities than others, so can't really comment on how good they are but the Wifi seems strong no matter where you are
I'm a current undergrad student who was excited to look into Sheffiled for graduate opportunities. I sent a list of questions to the admission coordinators and not only did I not get answers from one, although they attempted to schedule a skype call (which was rescheduled), as my list was "huge", but they continued to send surprisingly unprofessional emails or not getting back to me claiming that answering my email wouldn't be "logical". I am understanding that my inquiries may have been exhaustive and that they are very busy but I reached out to multiple universities and never had as much issue. I was made to feel that my inquiries were not important which is surprising considering you'd think they'd want international students. For anyone concerned, the department in question was the Urban Studies and Planning school.
BY FAR THE BEST STUDENTS' UNION IN THE UK
Sheffield uni is an amazingly friendly environment with lots of exciting things to get involved in and great academic and social support
Everyone is so lovely and the facilities are amazing!! The uni as a whole is super super good and the city is perfect for a student...did anybody say £5 round???
Best campus but needs faster internet.
Awesome uni, love every minute of it
Everyone should consider Sheffield, it's been a great place to be a student
Great university, best place to be!
A university bursting with culture, diversity and community spirit, best Uni ever!
Amazing support from staff.They help you with you CV amd keep you up to date with all the new opportunities. The SU is incredible ,so many soxities and organizmsation to join in order to learn nee things and meet new people
Poor teaching quality (Archaeology department). Sub-par pastoral care. Abysmal resources (Archaeology department). Hostile student population that can, and have gotten violent. Riddled with strikes and other disruptive events.
Really good place to study and live
Very inclusive and had some of my favourite first year memories at the union club nights
Fantastic Facilities, brilliant staff.
Sheffield University is one of the best unis in the UK, they offer great courses and also care about student welfare as much as education
A lovely environment with friendly, helpful staff
Great first year. Really good student experience
Very welcoming university with great people and groundbreaking research!
Very good uni with amazing facilities
Great time, great place, great people
Amazing university with an fabulous range if facilities and societies that are supported by the students uniin. Overall an amazing place to study
Can’t complain everything I could ever want is here and if I don’t think it is I send out an email and I am given a close replacement!
Where great research, great experiences and an excellent location combine with knowledgeable and compassionate staff to bring an overall fantastic experience.
Fantastic environment. Perfect for anyone looking to grow up and become truly independent.
I’ve just graduated and I’m gutted to be leaving sheff! Absolute best 3 years in the best uni city!
Everything about my university is great apart from my actual course. I found Japanese Studies to be quite a nightmare and that only the strong seem to survive in the East Asian Studies Department. I’ve requested to change course to Korean next year, and if I want to survive, I guess I’ll have to become a workaholic.
I would recommend going to Sheffield University to anyone. It's where I have the good balance of an excellent academic life woth inspirational lecturers to get smashed at the weekends and having a laugh at the pub. I love the city and love the uni! I will forever look back on my years as the best years of my life
Great school factolies are good Eli
Great school factolies are good Eli
Very glad to go to Uni of Sheffield
In a great city with a lot of choice of social activities and fantastic teaching
Best university ever a Russell group in a city that literally caters for all individual music tastes.
An excellent university with amazing facilities and friendly staff
Good. SU is the best in the country, city is friendly and the nightlife is fantastic.
Atmosphere is relaxed and fun, students union is right to claim to be the best, society's range from elitist and inaccessible to so relaxed they barely do anything
Really, really bad if you're disabled and/or LGBT+. Not only are many of the staff LGBT+ phobic, but they are against "excuses" in regards to disability. There are very few policies that allow disabled students to have kind of alternate learning. Many university buildings are not accessible. The university health service has consistently neglected my disability despite me making appointments each month to ask for help. I would not recommend this university to anyone.
Never come to this university for Phd and Masters. I Have suffered so much and dropped out in PhD. It was my mistake to trust them when was not happy in masters. Low quality of teaching in masters and not trust in PhD supervisors. Overall it has got a sick academic and staff environment. It has got amazing Student Union but my main aim was the quality of my degree not clubs and etc. then there is no point to rank them. Many PhDs have suffered so far with a poor relationship with their supervisors in this university. so many trustworthy supervisors are leaving the university as well. Be very careful. Just teens and bachelors with native languages are happy.
Well my cousin was here for work and lets just say that they are very disorganized. He now wants to share his experience.
Extremely well organised and accommodating university with very fair and flexible administration. Top quality teaching and graduate opportunities with links to industry leading companies. The best disability services of any university.
Awesome place, people and excellent Wifi and Great feel all round. Don't miss the Tuesday club!
One of the best Unions in the country with so much going on. Great facilities including media rooms, cafes, labs, WiFi, new study spaces.
tuesday club is a fun night out library is good but not enough seats
Speak to almost any University of Sheffield student (both past and current) and they will tell you that Sheffield is the perfect place to be a student, and that Sheffield University is a great university (good resources/teaching/reputation). However, I write from the perspective of a graduate who went to the university having attended an international school in Brussels, and being of half Italian descent. My personal experience of Sheffield was dreadful. I found the students to be very insular/English in nature, not accommodating at all to those of us who had grown up in other non-British contexts. I would say the majority of students there (however bright and successful on an academic level) where culturally typically 'British' and knew nothing outside of Middle/provincial England. The type of attitude which views anything across the Channel as being 'foreign' and therefore inferior. I would urge anyone from my background NOT to choose this uni.
Wasn’t even my first choice uni but wouldn’t change coming here for the world!! Amazing facilities and perfect location on the edge of Sheffield City Centre. Loads of support given by staff too.
Offers an amazing sense of community where you can take part in Residence life sport activities and social events.
Good library service: 4 libraries on campus and online resources are great (most of the books can be read online)
It was really good i love sheffield, especially sheffield 3 accommodation
