I’m really enjoying my time at the university of Worcester. I wasn’t too sure how my experience would turn out but I haven’t met a single member of staff who wasn’t kind and understanding. The student union are actually engaged in the university and take on student feedback, so the events and other activities that they run are usually really well suited to most students and a great way to get to know people :) read more

Barely any issues with the university itself. Just the accommodation needs to be improved significantly especially for the price. read more

WiFi is very slow and is hard to connect to, facilities are great. Food is canteen is very average could be nicer. Student uni is good and cheap! I love the sports and societies they have so many to choose from I am a part of cheerleading. Communication through lockdown was awful, very hard to get in touch with tutors and lecturers. read more

Left in 2018 after completing my BA and MSC. As a mature student who lived off campus, I found the University very good, not all lecturers were great, but All were helpful, you could ask them questions at all times of day or night especially around assignment time, most answered promptly. The facilities and Internet were fine never had any problems, IT staff were brillent. Only complaint would be food choices in business school, although it was located in the centre of Worcester so food choices all around. read more

Everything is okay and to be expected. The internet and I.t department is absolutely god awful to the max. I have e-mailed them almost every two weeks for a year regarding the bad internet. They ignore it and simply respond saying it's fixed despite their still being an issue. I have reported the same issue for A YEAR The accomodation team ignored my e-mail about being reimbursed due to poor internet and not having a washing machine for two weeks and no water for 3 days. Pathetic. Not to mention the union awards were £25 for a ticket alone which is a joke, considering every social is told 'they're nominated as best social of the year' read more

wifi goes down all the time. sole page doesn't work most of the time. feedbacks you get from tutors are ridiculous, confusing and usually do not make sense at all. campus is allright if you do not mind pay massive money for it, i lived in avon campus paying 500 pounds a month (!!), did not have decent sleep so last 4 months i lived somewhere else but still had to pay for it. security doesnt really do their jobs properly around the campus, when you call them they sometimes do not even bother to come and check up on things. furnishing in halls at least where i stayed were very very old and basic, looking like from old orphanage. there are very good teachers but it is mostly exeption rather than rule. i studied business and wanted to quit in every year, even few months before end of third year. especially if you are international student wanting to study business - make yourself a favor and definitely choose different university! read more

Best Uni for science or nursing/ medical studies I transferred here after doing a year at Northampton and hated it as they had none of the values,support, efficiency and professionalism as Worcester Uni. I feel I can approach any lecturer without feeling stupid or less important than anyone as they are fair and really want to help you get the best out of your degree. Internet is brilliant they will let you know of any internet problems and will fix it ASAP having said that it can be slow in halls a certain times but I believe this has been fixed from the beginning of the year. The facilities are one of the best I've seen as they try to give students an array of experiences as skills to fit with their study. As for societies that depends on which one you join for example film club have been quite persistent and organised every week with things going on as have some of the sport societies, although the biology society I joined only had one guest speaker in the year and that was it. read more
