Union is wonderful, staff care and general super nice atmosphere Campus is nice and depending on what course you do theres a mixture of old buildins and super new ones. Librarys are super good, Brotherton is best for the quiet book reading whereas Eddy B is great for those who love laptops. Avoid Laidlaw, you wont get a seat and its distrubingly quiet yet frantic

My time at leeds Uni has been incredible. It is a place where not only you want to learn but you have lecturers and supiervisors who want to help you do the best you can.

Amazing sports facilities, great opportunities within economic and math courses. Lots of support for job applications and intern/grad scheme applications.

Great university that focuses not only on academic but also professional development and enployability. Many different societies and new student initiatives are always appreciated and supported. Leeds is a great city as well - many places to go out, the city center is jus 10 min away from the university campus.

Enthusiastic lecturers, who are actively involved in research in the topics they are teaching. Plenty of opportunities to gain extra experience and work placements. Student union is amazing, one of the best I've seen!

The building is interesting. It holds a lot of history. I always feel proud and important studying here. Most things are quite efficient in terms of things being sorted out. If something is broken it will be fixed. I'm not too familiar with the careers service but from what my friends have told me it's not too bad. Many of them have landed internships in their desired feilds. I generally enjoy this uni

Excellent student union with a wide range of activities and societies. Campus has just undergone a major revamp (nearly done) so looking very good.

The campus is full of old buildings and open spaces. The facilities and activities they offer are very good and the Leeds union are constantly informing us with whats going on so its hard to miss out! Of course theres a good size library (get there early re exam times) followed by a decent sized gym and swimming pool!

The city of Leeds is a really good location, lots to do, loads of nightclubs, bars, shops, and the like. Student union is really good with a club, a pub and a few food outlets and shops. Facilities really good too. Courses are excellent and have only had maybe one or two 'eh' lectures. Overall, Leeds is a really good uni with lots to offer.

Leeds university has many facilities and I feel as if they constantly are creating new spaces for different fields of study. There are so many clubs you can enrol in and meet new people, and for the most part I have enjoyed the friendly students and staff

Am going into 3rd year and have LOVED my experience of Leeds Univercity! The campus is very compact and close to the city centre, great sports facilities and modern libraries to fit your needs. The Student Union is great, lots of social spaces and student nights available. The uni has many societies that cover a very wide range of activities and you will easily make friends.

The city of Leeds is a great student place with a close knit feel. Hyde Park is awesome in summer and is often packed. Uni itself has loads of different facilities and countless opportunities for students.

The University has an outstanding reputation, the course itself was really interesting however the methods of assessment were not the best. Would have liked a little bit more support as a Postgraduate too.

Really great uni overall in a great location close to town and not far from green areas too in Hyde park for those who want a break from the city. Teaching staff seem great and on my course as it is small are always there to help, however I am unsure how well this works one to one on larger courses. Facilities in the biology facility where I am based are amazing and up to date with this being a research uni. Plenty of libraries with space for those who need it during exam time and throughout the year which are well equipped. Overall really happy to have selected Leeds uni, lots of extra talks and employment opportunities for everyone too and plenty of social activities and societies to get involved with in any spare time.

The university as a whole is lovely and has a very positive, healthy energy. There are so many opportunities available and as soon as you start making the most of them you see even more and more. There are many places to go if you need help, such a range of social activities to get involved with and more or less everything you need in the student union. Learning resources are great and it’s useful that they cover a range of teaching styles, although support with coursework could be improved eg. more specific marking, particularly when it’s an assessment style that most students are unfamiliar with.

The campus is always kept clean, the libraries are nice but get too full during exam time. I am happy with the amount of libraries we have. The organisation of the modules could be a lot better with more emphasis on timings of assessments.

When I first came to Leeds from my hometown Malaysia, I couldn’t contain my excitement since it’s my childhood dream to study in the UK. The registration day was also the university-tour day, and I was amazed with all the facilities and classical-looking building all around the campus. Everything was great. My friends were all friendly, and I felt like home. Lecturers were helpful and lively, and easily approachable. Modules were always kept revised and checked by the surveys conducted by the students everytime to ensure the content quality. I also loved the atmosphere and ambiance around the campus as it was always kept clean everyday. Unions were always been helpful towards students, and actively conducted events to reach every student of different cultures, and nationalities.

Never really used the student union facilities but they have a huge club and two bars on campus. Some of the uni facilities are outdated but most are top spec. Course was okay, really depends on the modules you take. Nightlife was brilliant, bars and clubs for all sorts of music tastes. Loads of restaurants and the shopping in the city center is great. Amazing city and uni would definitely reccomended.

Campus is so big, and facilities are adequate. WiFi is everywhere on campus. Politics and International development, which is my course, has variable modules. Furthermore, we can choose any modules from other schools, such as law and language. This university is suitable if you want to broaden your perspective and knowledge. The student union is always in nice atomisphere, and there are a few staffs to support you about anything.

The entire campus is amazing! Right in the center of leeds! Perfect! Great facilities and student feel! The student union is amazing, everything you would need inside! The careers service is so helpful with placements and grad jobs, they have drop in sessions and you can book a mock interview with them as well + they carry out mock assessment Centers. My course is Conputer Science, it is good it just s a little disorganised. The staff are very nice but very unorganised. All in all very good.
