Really amazing uni. Love my course structure and the teaching methods used. I am a medical student and the medical building is beautiful and open 24/7! We are offered many career workshops and sessions which are really helpful. Started university this year and have really enjoyed it so far and am really looking forward to the next few years.

I really like the look of the campus and the facilities we have access to in the buildings such as the cafes and the labs. I study statistics and I feel that it's a very good course with a lot of information which will help me get a job in the future

Beautiful campus, the union is class, always a craic night in beer bar! Billiards room is great for a game of pool/snooker and a couple to chill out. Earth science department is brilliant very friendly and lecturers very good. Very close to subway if you need to get into centre.

Glasgow campus is breathtaking it looks like Hogwarts. It's especially beautiful during the fall when the leaves are falling. The main building with the cloisters are the best for pictures and moments of silence and pondering. We have an amazing library which is always busy but it is organized so well. I do English Literature and I enjoy the course a lot.

The actual campus is beautiful and is such a nice environment to learn in. I study civil engineering with architecture and the course has been challenging but the lecturers have all been brilliant.

Excellent university with 2 unions to choose between (GUU is the better one). It has an excellent library with 12 floors and open 24 hours over exam season. If you are a medical student there is even a separate building with a library in it which is great. There are so many clubs and societies to choose between which is great for meeting likeminded people. In terms of nightlife and food, Glasgow has so much choice that it is difficult to try everything. It is such a friendly city and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

The University of Glasgow is based in Glasgows westend, which is about a 15 - 20 minute walk from the town centre. There is a sports/leisure centre accross from the main building, I have only tried the swimming but that was enjoyable and the pool wasnt overpacked. The facilities within the University are clean and tidy. There are gender neutral toilets in some buildings along with easy accessible toilets. There is cafes / shops / restaurants located all around the campus. I found my course a bit of a struggle as this was my first year, so trying to find new ways of holding information and learning new ways to study are achievements to partake next year. Overall my first year experience was overwhelming, however i am hoping i keep on track for my 2nd year.

An inclusive and vibrant university that truly provides an amazing experience for all its students. The campus is beautiful and often compared to Hogwarts, as well as there being a huge range of clubs and societies to join. The teaching is great and the tutors are always there for you if you need! Not only, they are very understanding of mitigating circumstances around exams and deadlines. Overall, everyone who goes to GU falls in love with the culture and experience of the university. It's an intimate and special environment - couldn't recommend it enough.

Excellent University with superb facilities including catering, library access and both unions, especially the GUU. The course I study (veterinary medicine) is very well structured and the staff are friendly, helpful and outgoing. The campus is a good mixture between the old and the new and the city as a whole is brilliant to live and study in.

The campus is beautiful. The accommodation close to campus is a bit pricey and the student halls of residences are a bit far away, however the location is great for bars and restaurants. There is a vibrant student community on campus and the university is helpful when it comes to careers service, disability service etc. There is a variety of clubs and societies on offer to students, as well as two well established and busy student unions.

Uni is 10/10 would recommend to a smart friend. Everyone is very helpful and there’s lots of support in place. Timetables are usually accurate though sometimes things can be double booked and confusing.

It is a wonderful university. Pretty international. Good teachers. Great infrastructure. Good social life. Scotland is beautiful anyway, can get very cold for few months.

The university of Glasgow offers flexible options of subject, active student unions and a enjoyable general student experience. The advisors are very helpful and avaliable and the university offers a lot of help with careers and internships. The gym is affordable and has a wide range of equipment however on Sundays it closes at 4:30. Glasgow university offers a wide range of unique societies and sports for example quiditch and the dog society. My campus is a difficult system to get used to but generally everything is well organised. Lecturers are helpful and always avaliable for questions. I would definitely recommend the University of Glasgow for a great degree programme and student experience.

The University has a modern look, most lecture halls are recently renovated and equipped with projectors. Library is top notch with lots of available computers. If you are in the halls you will also be 10 minutes away from 80% of the POI in the city.

The campus is amazing. It is like you study in Hogwarts. You don't get to have too many lectures in the main building, i.e. the castle, but you still get enough. There are many places for food to feed the hungry students, so variety is ensured. 2 student unions, with different bars and facilities, like pool, foosball, etc. It's cheap compared to other places as well!
