The University of Manchester (reviews)

It’s great that I can access the books, assignments, and syllabus two weeks before the start of the class. I’ve been able to maintain my class lead thanks to this arrangement. I appreciate having free electives because it enables me to enroll in classes in areas of interest like criminology, drawing, and photography.

I knew Saint Anselm College was the right place for me the moment I stepped foot on its campus. During my first year here, I met a lot of wonderful people—both faculty and fellow students—who have had a huge impact on my life and guided me down paths for my career and personal life that I never could have imagined.

I had an amazing experience studying at the University of Manchester. The campus is beautiful and the facilities are top-notch. The courses offered are excellent and the professors are highly knowledgeable and passionate about their topics. There are plenty of extracurricular activities to get involved in and a vibrant student culture. The university also has great support services and the academic advisors were very helpful. I would highly recommend the University of Manchester to anyone looking for a quality education.

Everyone at University of Manchester sincerely cares about the pleasure, success, and well-being of each and every student. It strikes a fair mix between providing a quality education and connections for professions after four years and having a great party scene on the weekends. It is not just any college; it is a second home.

I was overall satisfied, because the value of the degree is high, and I can easily find a job with it afterwards. However, there is not enough theory behind the practical and applied thinking, which I believe would also be important. The lecturers are often not motivated, as they are rather researchers than teachers. Support for everyday problems is very good at he university, they are very helpful, and can find answers to all your needs.

The university is friendly and welcoming; as a new-start to the university I feel like it was clear to me the steps I needed to take to register and get settled. The module options on my course are diverse and thoughtful; I feel as though I have had the opportunity to study a really wide range of topics in just a year.

I am studying postgrad at the UoM, and everything is perfect, from the lectures and student services. Students can find anything they want in the campus and through online resources. As an international student, uni offers countless resources and is willing to provide assistance such as academic studying, the cost of living, mental and psychical help, etc. Also, there are many societies and activities for students to expand their social networks and career services, which benefits students during their studying year in Manchester. I highly recommend that prospective students joining the international society, having opportunities to explore other cities and social events.

I am an Egyptian undergraduate student at the University of Manchester and I have had a great experience so far. The university has a very diverse student population, which has allowed me to meet students from all over the world, while not feeling left out. The campus is modern and well-equipped with all student essentials, including libraries, labs, and sports facilities.

I study an Information Technology Management course, and I find the material to be challenging and engaging. From my experience I found academics and professors to be knowledgeable and approachable, well most of them. There are also so many opportunities to get involved in research and extracurricular activities through the hundreds if not more of student led societies. Manchester University’s commitment to student welfare and the numerous resources made available for students is also commendable. Support services are great and have helped me adapt to this new country quickly, and also helped my career development.

However, there are a few things which I would have changed in an ideal world, but unfortunately it is not an ideal world. The city, being one of the largest in the UK, can be a bit disorienting and expensive, and finding affordable housing proves to be a challenge for many. Additionally, the campus is very big, which can be seen as both a pro and con I suppose, which makes it difficult to enjoy all the facilities. For example the sports ground is almost an hour walk from the main library.

Overall, I would definitely recommend the University of Manchester to any student who wants to live in a large and diverse community. It provides a well-rounded educational experience with a supportive environment and plenty of opportunities to get involved with other students.
