i’ve only just started my first year, i’m nearly at the end of my first semester. i would recommend sheffield to anyone i’m really enjoying it. the staff are incredibly supportive.
Really good SU and all the buildings have very good facilities
In love with the uni, everyone is friendly
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sheffield is great, I've feel really supported studying here and always find things to do on and off campus.
everything is great. a few problems with the wifi in the first few weeks (it kept kicking me off) but this has been resolved now
The building and educational system have been meticulously designed to cater to the needs of students, providing an ideal learning environment. The facilities are maintained in a pristine condition and are fully equipped with the necessary resources. The institution also fosters a vibrant student life through a diverse array of student clubs and their associated events.
Very nice campus and very good facilities for studying.
great uni, feels safe, amazing people
It’s very hard to judge the university, given that I’ve not studied at any other ones, so I have literally nothing to compare it to
all good, only slight issue would be that the internet is slow/unreliable
A great uni with caring staff.
I love the university and clubs and theres countless interesting societies to get involves with.
nice and comfy nice facilities and really good societys
There is a society for any interest you could have and everyone is welcome to any of them. Lots of study spaces and food outlets in the SU.
-Student union is very good -Wifi is general good
Love love love the university, the perfect mix of city and campus
Sheffield University has been a great experience so far
I’m really enjoying studying at Sheffield with loads of societies and social events to get involved with but also lots of academic and career support available.
A pretty good experience so far, lots of support and opportunity to give and recieve feedback.
I really enjoy going here and have a great social life. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. There is plenty of support if you're struggling
amazing uni i’ve really enjoyed my time here so far
There’s lots of clubs and societies and opportunities in the students union
Students union is fabulous, the best out of UK unis. Plenty of clubs and societies, but you can also make your own if there isn't anything for you. There is free internet, but it is prone to disconnecting when your phone turns off (not power off, any time the screen goes dark) and isn't very easy to connect to in the first place. Campus facilities are good, apart from the Portobello Centre which seems to have really bad heating. Overall quite good, but like most unis, has potential for some improvements.
Such a wide range of clubs and societies for everyone no matter what you like to do. I like how some are on pay as you go basis (eg ice skating) so you don’t have to fully commit or there is always a casual membership available
There are so many societies to choose from and the student union has so much food choices and loads of places to chill
Great uni, very supportive, lovely campus and city.
Good uni, love the feel and the general vibe of it
Excellent uni. Super friendly and lots of support .
All very good on the whole !!!’
I am thoroughly enjoying my university experience; however, the internet could use some improvement.
Campus is great place to be in , Students Union has much more to offer. Internet is everywhere
Friendly staff, support available when needed.
Good overall, would recommend,
campus is nice, plenty to do in surrounding areas, less said about eduroam the better.
Sheffield is a very good uni with modern facilities. There are loads of different societies to join. The only issue is that the wifi is poor, although I don’t think this is exclusive to Sheffield.
Inclusive, welcoming environment with good study areas and libraries
I have had a very pleasant experience living in this student apartment. The environment is very comfortable, and the rooms are spacious and bright, which gives me a relaxing feeling every time I come home. The facilities are also quite comprehensive, with a gym and study rooms that meet all my needs. Additionally, the management team is very friendly and professional. Whether it's a repair request or any daily issues, they handle everything promptly. I would definitely recommend this place to future residents; it really is great!
Sheffield is brilliant. good city. good facilities. poor wifi
In whole very welcoming experience, but wi fi is not great and I think ridge needs an upgrade
a good uni with a lot of support! Mostly very friendly and great first year accom (endcliffe/ranmoor). A mix of old and new buildings and a nice mix of city/campus.
Was never my first choice but I did end up making the decision to go to UoS and do not regret the decision in the slightest.
I got really nice experience in the societies!
My course is really good and my teachers are great
really good service and location，every staff are friendly
I enjoy my course and teachers are nice
Brilliant services with many ways of connecting with other people
Everyone is very nice and I think it’s a good place

Great university with excellent facilities especially in the diamond. Everything is very accessible and lots of good study space
Okay university but i wish there was more clubs and societies
Very nice uni with good facilities and support
Very friendly and helpful staff, especially careers service. They’ve got a lot to offer. ELTC has so much you can benefit if you’re an international student.
Campus is really good and university is really great, i love how helpful the staff is.
Good university and place to study
Good university to study for international
su is brilliant, eduroam will kick you off and turn off constantly, societies are daunting but you might get lucky and find friends
Great campus and students union. Lots of opportunities available
Enjoyed my journey so far, been fairly easy to get into the swing of and maintain, facilities are amazing and I feel the access to the student union and societies has helped me a lot.
The Students Union is amazing, they offer so many societies and many opportunities to enhance your university experience!
Student union has definitely been an advantage of coming to Sheffield
Wi-Fi is slow and unreliable generally - outstanding facilities with top SU
Endcliffe is a good place to live for the social life, Froggatt is a good block, close to the edge but not too noisy.
All the sectors mentioned are amazing, only gripe with wifi is that I, and everyone else I’ve mentioned it to, get disconnected from it all the time. Quite annoying but quickly resolved, you just enter the password again.
Wifi is horrible. Fix it. That's all
Great Uni, campus can be ugly in some parts
The campus is really good, there are some really lovely cafes and study spaces in most of the buildings which means you can always find a nice place to sit and wait for your next lecture or just chill for a bit. The students union always has an arrange of events which is great for first years and great to meet new people. there is a wide range of clubs and societies so no matter what your interested in, you will always find something you want to do!
Made use of the societies and clubs, a lot on offer plus the ones I have joined have been really friendly and welcoming. A lot of options for the careers service. Weekly emails for jobs is useful and the cv builders are practical and useful too. Wifi has had some connectivity issues, however the speeds have been pretty good.
I enjoy my time at university and my course.
University life is rewarding because there are always things to do. There are a great variety of societies to choose from.
Great wifi good place lovely views good nights out
Good experience with amazing facilities. A lot of active societies too
Good facilities and most things in there are very cheap
So glad to go to this univeristy
Amazing place to study has a lot of support and features
Accommodation is a bit far from central campus but other than that it’s a really good uni
the campus itself is great! a range of buildings, all of which are open relatively late for those late night study sessions. sometimes finding an area to study can be difficult.. the wifi is generally okay, not perfect but does the job. sports societies are massive here! wednesday nights out are so fun:) non-sport societies are so varied - they have one for everyone
Great facilities and student union, I have not had much experience on the careers service to comment on it but they regularly send emails and have a hub in the students union, wifi can be temperamental at times.
great uni, lovely people and area, always lots going on and much to engage with and still lots of support during studies
Easily settled into first month here as everything is accessible and questions are answered quickly
Amazing place to be just be happy here
Amazing Uni. Supportive and encouraging.
Love the support we get however wifi is always around 2 bars unless in building on campus
I have really enjoyed my first few weeks at Sheffield, there is still so much more to do and explore! It feels big whilst still ah big that small village community feel!
Little to no complaints about my university experience. Campus has so many huge and beautiful options for libraries and study spaces. The clubs and society options are endless, always opportunity to get involved somehow. The Careers Service is always on top of helping with employment during and after your degree
The Students Union and sports/societies are great. It's a very welcoming uni with plenty of high quality facilities and good professors
the university is not spending their funds correctly, the diamond which is the main library doesn't have any working plugs and they keep closing silent study places so there is not enough space to study anymore
I would say that uni of sheaf is an excellent uni with any exceedingly large variety of resources.
Really feel part of the community at Sheffield, and proud to be part of it. Everyone is supportive and happy to help, and the variety of clubs and societies is incredible.
My time as a student at the University of Sheffield has been incredibly positive. The academic environment is both challenging and supportive, providing countless opportunities for growth and learning. The faculty are knowledgeable and always willing to offer guidance, which has greatly enhanced my studies. One of the standout aspects of the university is its strong sense of community. The campus is diverse and inclusive, with students from all around the world, which has allowed me to connect with people from various backgrounds and expand my global perspective. The facilities, from the library to the student union, are top-notch and contribute to an enriching university life. Living in Sheffield has also been a wonderful experience. The city is friendly and welcoming, with a vibrant cultural scene and beautiful surroundings, perfect for a balance between studying and exploring. Overall, I am grateful to be a part of the University of Sheffield and would highly recommend it to anyo
UoS has great night life and the courses are well instructed
Great university with great courses and facilities.
Pretty good tbf I love Sheffield uni
I couldn’t imagine myself anywhere else :) Sheffield is such a perfect student city and the uni is amazing! I will always recommend it here.
University of Sheffield is a great place to develop and nurture your skills. University also provides us with plenty of opportunity to grow ourselves soft skills also.
All good. The staff is so nice. And the location is so convenient. All good.
Living experience is amazing!!!!!!
I think Sheffield is a great University so far. As an engineering student, their equipment and facilities really stand out to me. Everything we do in lectures and labs reinforces the idea that they care about students and want to invest in the best education possible. The campus is really nice, and easily walkable (as long as it isn't raining too hard). The societies have been a real highlight for me, and I strongly recommend trying out as many as possible. Finally, internet is good, but not amazing. All Uni buildings have the eduroam network with ~20mbps speeds. While my accommodation didn't have great wifi, I was able to hook my laptop up to ethernet and get much better speeds.
