University of Surrey (reviews)

I attended Surrey and could not be happier with my decision. If you are looking to be surrounded with the best minds in the world Surrey Business School is the best place for you. Join societies, chat with the professors but more importantly be involved within the community. The Surrey business school has so much to offer I promise you. Thank you Joao for giving me the opportunity to share my experience.

University of Surrey is an excellent university for most of it’s aspects. Filled with a ever blossoming varied student base with plenty of facilities, it’s hard to go against the experience and education the University provides in relation to your programme of choice. The only issue lays in the topic of education is a general gripe with the University education system of the United Kingdom at large.

At no point will you be realistically prepped for the genuine struggle and hardship of post-university life, the time you have at the University will be cherished and you will be treated very well but the millisecond you are out the door and not paying into the University anymore, it’s as if your existence is whiped from their memory, undestandably the constant cycle of prepping for the next batch of students is important but education even at higher levels continues to feel less like guidance and more obligation of the youth of the nation.

At the time, my parents told me to choose Surrey. I chose Surrey because I knew there was a lot of support for summers and internships. The reality is that I had to work for financial reasons. My parents couldn’t help me, nor did I want to overwhelm them. The reality is that without the internship program in Surrey I would not have been able to complete the course

I loved Surrey. I really enjoyed playing football in Surrey, felt like part of the university. I made friends for life and got a lot of support. My best friends are from Surrey. I ended up opening a start-up with them through the Surrey Start-up Incubator

If you are undecided whether to go to Surrey or not. Go to Surrey. I went there and loved it. Surrey is an amazing university full of bright and friendly people. I studied at Cambridge for a Masters and Oxford for a PhD and I can say I preferred studying in Surrey a thousand times more. I felt like there was a lot more help out there

Surrey is an excellent university for anyone who loves economics. There are lots of jobs and opportunities to explore topics you like and work with individual teachers. I did my thesis with the international trade professor and learned a lot from him. If you study in Surrey, take the opportunity to work with Professor Eric Golson. won’t be sorry

The quality of teachers in Surrey is shocking. I did my masters at Cambridge and expected them to get even better. I was wrong… At Cambridge the professors had this mania, they could be intelligent but they were terrible at explaining and terrible people. Thank you Surrey Thank you Eric Golson for being the reference you are in Surrey.

Between Cambridge and Surrey I can say I learned more in Surrey. I was happier in Surrey. Surrey will always be my second home. I’m sorry that this comes as a surprise to many.

Surrey is undoubtedly one of the best universities in the world. Its economics department is in the top 5 in Europe. It’s shocking that such a small university has such good professors. University life is pretty cool and the university cares a lot about mental health. I recommend Surrey without a second thought. Couldn’t have asked for better

If you are trying to decide between Surrey or a Russel Group uni just because someone told you that Russel Goup is like Ivy league then choose Surrey. The Russel Group is probably the most stupid “standard of quality” I ever heard.

Surrey has some amazing facilities. The university has a 80 million pound gym facilities, a 5 floors main library, 3 study buildings (My Surrey Hive, My Surrey Nest and My Surrey Spark best rooms you will see in a UK uni). And individual private rooms for most subjects where students go mostly in a exam season
