Great university and great course – Staff are helpful and very responsive to the needs of students. Supportive module assistance is provided for each course and the course itself is interesting and insightful.

I have thoroughly enjoyed being a student here, however I have found that finding help, for many different issues, can be difficult. I have not necessarily found the support teams very responsive, especially during the first year. Academic tutors don’t always come across as approachable, however I have found that the quality of help when you speak to the right person is excellent.
The campus itself is a good environment, I have never found it a negative place to be, and the facilities are ones we are really lucky to have the opportunity to use. Other students have always been exceptionally friendly towards me, and I have found that the people on my course make me feel extremely positive.
In terms of the learning aspect, I have really enjoyed it. The course is so interesting and I love the way it’s taught. I do think we have a good balance of contact hours and independent study as well.

The University of Leicester has been an exciting and honestly life-changing experience for me so far. I have had a really good first year, made good friends and enjoyed my courses. I am studying law, and though I do live on campus this last year most of the courses have been online too, except for smaller sessions with professors. Student life on campus is very active and can be quite enjoyable. There is also a significant number of international students from Poland, Italy, other surrounding European countries and West African countries too. Also, I can comment that another really good thing about Leicester is the pace of lectures and courses, I feel like in all my classes so far, the going pace of learning can be appreciated by all students, in that it does not feel rushed or like the professors are trying to squeeze in an entire syllabus in a couple of weeks. Also, there are so many different societies (clubs) available to join as a first-year, which can enhance your whole Leicester experience. The film society, that I’m a part of, provides an opportunity to meet people with shared interests and develop friendships from there.
