As an international student, I really enjoy studying there. The classes are interesting but most of all, the professors and the staff are super nice!! It is a very good place to study.
Good uni, nice people. Nightlife can be a bit dead sometimes
Overall happy with everything. Nothing is too stand out but the union is quite nice and has plenty of stuff to do
I think that university so far has been great I love the feel of it the wifi is available everywhere but does cut out
Had such a good time in Uni accomadation, would definitely recommend it
The campus is close to a lot of student accommodation.
WiFi is very bad Bar one and foundry are good
I personally love the Student Union and campus. The SU has so many facilities in itself, for activities, holding events, eating, buying necessities or baseline groceries, and events are often held in that area. Of course there is also an advice center, which helps you out with most things University, accommodation or finance related if you need it. The careers service in person meetings, I haven't tried out yet, but I did add some skills reflections in my portfolio which is linked to the app 'Career Connect', and it's very helpful in organising future skills employers might look for, which is helpful for building up you CV. They also provide job listing for part time and full time jobs, which is helpful in case you ever need to look for one. The campus itself is really easy to get around, and the hills themselves, though everywhere have to be concluded to be great exercise. I would just advise to leave your accommodation early enough to make up for time lost getting up the hills.
Overall a nice experience , I enjoyed it
I didn’t have a typical time at university, but overall had a good experience.
There a loads of cluns and societes, the student union is great, wifi is pretty good - there are a couple lecture theatres where its slightly slow but otherwise its great.
It’s a great uni! I love exploring the city and seeing different parts of campus. The students union in particular is a really nice space for whatever you need, and there’s such a great variety of societies!
Campus is a bit of a walk and takes time by bus in the morning from endcliffe/ranmoor but the diamond and ic are very good places to study.
Uni of Sheffield is an excellent place to study, learn and have fun
Its been great so far, there is nothing to complain about with it, there is lots of societies and the SU is cool.
I am very happy with the university's career support, facilities, and societies. Keep the vibe up!
Facilities are modern especially the SU and there are many societies
Very good university with lots of great opportunities
The campus and societies are good and welcoming
Great overall, course is very well organised.
Sheffield provides many great options for societies which has been a real highlight. The campus itself is very accessible and for the most part, there’s never much struggle to find somewhere to study.
Enjoy the uni. Best thing is the wide range of clubs and societies there is
All very good and convenient also a lot of societies
Area is generally good and the buildings I've been in are very easy to navigate once you've already been in them. A lot of people hold protests and political advertisements/campaigns/etc around as it is a student area. It's something to be aware of if you're an upcoming student. Another thing to note is that a lot of the buildings might be quite far away from each other (10-20min walks between some of the buildings) so it might be a little difficult to find where certain buildings are at first. I recommend walking around the area beforehand for students who are new to Sheffield.
Great accomodations, wonderful reception and overall a great social area
It nice i like the place and it hard but rewarding

An incredible range of facilities on offer ! The campus is green and there is a society for everyone
The opportunities available are amazing

Great campus and facilities, WiFi can be poor in some areas. Good social areas and places to study.
The University of Sheffield's students union is good.
It is best place to live and study and the common room is amazing
Enjoying my time here. Campus is lovely, lots of places to eat/ hang out/ study. Wifi works fine for me but I know a lot of people who constantly have issues with it.
I absolutely love the university campus. The students union is always having events on and there is a society or club for everyone that are well-priced for memberships and socials. The facilities are excellent, I personally love the Information Commons buildings as there are a wide range of resources to use for work. The careers service is good and offers advice on anything related to careers in the future or at present. Overall the university is a brilliant place.
The university is super lovely. Feels like a community, campus is brilliant location.
A very sociable university with a brilliant student union which offers things for everyone Campus is spread over the city and easily accessible
great university and good support
the campus is good, a little far from the university but no major complaints
Wi-Fi is a bit slow sometimes, but everything else is really good! SU is amazinf with so much to get involved with, and all the facilities are so accessible and fabtastic quality
The student union has everything you could want with lots of places to eat and places to buy food as well as study space. There is also so many clubs and society’s and you can also create your own. However the wifi is generally unreliable unless you are on a university computer.
Not a single complaint about the university facilities.
Good study spaces and socials with lots of societies to join. Some libraries can get very busy and so it’s hard to find a seat. Friendly people and well sized campus!
Great teaching, support, campus facilities, social life and general vibe. There are loads of eating spots, study spaces, hangout areas and great people.
amazing! the student union always has an event on and the campus is great
Very big range of clubs and societies
The campus offers good facilities and a pleasant environment, leaving little room for complaints. Clubs and societies are a strong point, providing a diverse range of welcoming and well-organized groups catering to various hobbies and interests. The Students’ Union is a standout feature, celebrated for its excellent organization, active support, and engaging activities that truly enhance the student experience. The careers service is generally helpful with good communication, although there’s room for improvement to make it more proactive. However, the unreliable internet and Wi-Fi connection can be frustrating and detracts from an otherwise positive experience.
Everything is great in general, it seems the student and staff are closely connected and the university is always doing what it can for it's students. It is friendly and the services available are invaluable
The university is great, its within the city so there are lots of places to go to study if you get bored of the extensive range of university owned spaces.
Great University, the student union is great with bar one and the campus, especialy the diamond building, is amazing
Great University and the best Student's Union
Internet connection is often an issue for me personally. This noticeably can take place in areas all around the university, but apart from that, it is a great place to study.
The uni has lots of events on that are always advertised so I can always be involved.
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
