Really nice campus: Mix of modern and historic buildings Lots of space to work eg libraries and computer suites in every building The library staff are really friendly and always helpful Don't use students union or careers service much as don't know about them

Good facilities and easy to navigate campus. High quality teaching with all lectures being podcasted.

It’s decent, very nice university but north campus could do with upgrading as the buildings aren’t very nice

Very good university, accommodation is really cheap and still very good, all accommodation is gated and 24 hr security guards

Excellent city with good links to industry and top notch teaching. Resources and facilities are of the highest standard, particularly in the engineering department where there is cutting edge machinery and equipment. Studying facilities are well serviced and clean with am excellent learning atmosphere for all types of learners.

This is a fantastic university! The facilities in my faculty are amazing and all my lecturers are top class. You get many opportunities here to forward yourself and support is excellent. The SU is massive and very active, with many events put on throughout the year. Some accommodation could do with being updating but mine was excellent.

Everything is pretty good here in Manchester, nice environment and surroundings, good use of technology in all aspects including podcasting of lectures.

The campus is situated along oxford road which is the heart of Manchester as they are easily accessible and many restaurants located there. The distance between each building is just a short distance and people can reach the building by walking. There is a free shuttle bus to move from main university to the north campus which operates every 10 minutes. The facilities can be improved to meet students expectation.

Big city with lots of students but fallowfield is far out from Manchester so don’t get to see much of city. Facilities are okay but not great for the number of students and amount of money the union must get. Union is average - been redone so abit better but nothing special. Halls are poor. But good uni experience

My course is alright even if there’s not a lot of diversity within the students. Some of them are to not say “racist”

If you get involved in the societies and clubs that are available it will definitely help you make the most of your time at Manchester as this is were many people meet a lot of their friends. The students union host events often such as Pangaea festival twice a year and Athletics union night every Wednesday which are pretty fun. I would say if you don't get involved then there isn't a huge sense of community at Manchester and you may end up feeling a bit isolated, get involved early on and don't leave it too late.

It's a good uni but how good depends on what you're learning. For research heavy subjects like chemistry it's a good course because the lecturers will provide insight into their own research. But for things like pharmacy it's unnecessarily hard with lots of extra pointless exercises

I love the university. They are helpful and warm towards international students. The tutors are always there for helping you out. I have made some friends here who I will cherish for the rest of my life. I absolutely love being at university and it is definitely one of the best times of my life.

Accommodation maintenance is really good, if something is broken they fix it immediately, Security on campus isn’t great,

Wonderful, full of intelligent and friendly people from all walks of the earth. Recommended for anyone as long as they work had at sixth form. The teaching is absolutely phonemenal as they all experienced qualified teachers who offer to guide students through uni life

The campus might not be the most beautiful, but the facilities are very good. The library is huge with loads of seating (this is a big deal!) and the gym is really good

The uni itself is really beautiful although there has been loads of building work lately which I suppose is what they've decided to spending our 9k a year on. The teaching is good and there's usually loads online like podcasts and notes if you need to catch up on anything. The union is good and they put on a lot in the year but in the summer they changed the layout of the inside of the actual building to be like little stalls for each thing which ngl is way worse than it was before. In general though would recommend this uni.

The support offered by the uni during exam time is really good, but often the information given about exams differs between each tutor which is really not helpful when trying to prepare. The Union should have a proper venue, the bar isn’t really that great for a night out and the alcohol isn’t cheap either.
