This university provides a great variety of courses for all students, but not all of the facility's are kept to a high standart.

The campus is very pretty and well maintained. The library is very big and has a variety of research tools. Sometimes during busy study times it can be hard to find a seat but on the whole it is spacious and confortable.

Great library with 12 floors which offer different types of study spaces to suit everyone! Separate language library with facilities specifically for modern language students also very helpful. Beautiful buildings. Food can be a bit expensive if you don't bring your own lunch and have to buy it at Uni.

University of Glasgow have one of the most beautiful campus. The facilities like library is really helpful and library is open from 7am to 2am which is very helpful. The career service halps is to polish the CVs and help us with interview preparation by arranging mock interviews.

Overall a good university with lots of good points. Buildings do range in quality/facilities with some significantly better equiped than others. By far the biggest issue is the wide range of issues caused by the online systems of the uni. Often issues with timetables during enrollment, have personally been enrolled in a course I should not have been able to enroll in which resulted in me falling a week behind in the class I eventually got swapped to. Some of the better features provided with the online systems are often not used by lecturers such as video recording of the lectures.

Overall the University is fantastic. The buildings are beautiful, the facilities are pretty good, the clubs/societies are never-ending and the gym is amazing! Some parts are a little behind the times so to speak in terms of technology and design and the library never has enough seats but otherwise it’s great!

Glasgow has a really good atmosphere about it. Everyone is really willing to learn which is just so encouraging, you’ll never feel nervous to speak out or be passionate and thats really important. The campus is beautiful and although it’s really big, you will always find your way about. Plenty of facilities at your fingertips, basically everything you’ll need.

The university as a whole is very good. The library is a good size with plenty of computer spaces. There are two unions, plenty of cafes and good transport links to the city centre. Life sciences courses are generally well organised although some time assignments don’t get marked within the time frame given.

Careers services are very good- providing good advice always. The facilities are mostly up to date and useful, however some buildings are outdated and need renovated.

Very pretty campus that's very Hogwarts like. However the location is a bit annoying if you live at home! And it's quite stretched out. But very helpful staff that are happy to help.

resourceful, welcoming and helpful. Try to keep students up to date on what is happening in and around university. All staff are lovely and pleasant to interact with.

The campus buildings are beautiful, and overall I think the west end of Glasgow is a nice place to study in. The facilities such as the libraries are well maintained, and as a pianist I was really glad to find that there's a keyboard room in the library for me to practice in whenever I wished to do so. The sports facilities are great as well. The course is well structured and fair, and the overall organisation of it made the transition from high school to university a lot easier academically. The lecturers in my course are great as well. So far, my experience here has been great.

It is basically like studying in the wizarding world of Harry Potter. I have classes in hogwarts. I love it, although still waiting on my letter for the real hogwarts

Law student who finds the campus really good, not too small but easily navigated. Well connected to the centre of Glasgow as well as the West End. Unfortunately, library is overcrowded. Excellent sports and recreation facilities available.

The campus is very attractive and all the buildings are close enough. Located in the west end of Glasgow there is a good student community.

Campus is a bit overstretched and some lecture halls are a little tight but overall a nice scenery. Student union sells pretty good portions of pretty good food fairly cheap which is a massive plus too. The library here is exceptional and, studying law, having a dedicated floor as well as another dedicated library for law exposes us to a large amount of resources.

Overall the campus looks good and has a pleasant atmosphere. The location is great as it's situated in one of the nices parts of the city, with lots of restaurants, cafes, and nightclubs. The facilities are good but sometimes feel there isn't enough study space for the number of students.The general teaching is good, but it really depends on who you get, there are a lot of great teaching staff, but there are some who aren't so good. However, the uni has great catering facilities, with cafes and food halls all over campus. Plus it's lovely to sit outside on a nice day.

If you want to access high-quality education from leading researchers, in a beautiful building that has stood for centuries, in a large city full of things to do, then the University of Glasgow is the place for you. We have not one, but two student unions - both of which are home to a healthy inter-union rivalry and countless events throughout the year. Oh, and there's a big, fancy gym that just opened. Nice. The people here are very friendly and accepting too - it's just a great place to be, really. The online enrolment system is an absolute pain though.
