Picking UoB has been the best decision of my life. The campus is beautiful and it is right in the heart of a city. I absolutely love the uni and the atmosphere is just great. We have one of the largest student unions and the career services are just wonderful. I have been here less than a year and I'm already sad that I'll be leaving in 2 years.

Campus is big and have a nice community feel about it compared to a city university. The library is great but needs more seats! The new sports centre again is amazing but needs more memberships!

My university has a good student union that organises many activities and nights out. In addition to this, we have a library which is massive and all the staff working at uob are very helpful.

The campus was amazing at first as I captured a breath taknng scenery. The people whom are very friendly helped me out with finding my building because I looked lost. The generlusity the University provides you includes support with work or other support when you need it.

The course is great; very organised and always very transparent. Campus is beautiful apart from all the construction work unfortunately. Facilities also nothing to complain about! Perhaps more parking would we great.

I love my course. The best part about the university is how it’s such a sweet closed campus. It’s like a big secure location full of students. Like your own little town.

The campus is beautiful and set in a really safe area of Birmingham. The new library is very modern and a lovely study space. My course (medicine) is run very well and the medical school is a great place to work. The MedSoc is constantly rated the best in the UK! There is so much on offer from the student union and there is always advice on careers available. We also have the tallest free standing clock tower in the world!

The campus has most of what you need on it. Could do with better and more affordable shops. It's dated in parts but what is new is very snazzy. The guild is alright, I've seen better student's unions but it's ok. Careers service is decent. The online interface is user friendly and there are plenty of opportunities available. Thus uni does well in funding students to ensure they get great work experience. Teaching has been great and they have a quality philosophy department.

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 university's is amazing. Unlike any other university in Birmingham it isn't the only campus uni giving a surreal uni experience unlike any other. With new facilities being recently built such as a state of the art sports building and also a new collaborative learning environment . There is many spots to study and also eat around campus with its own unique train station too.

Amazing university, so much to offer, and there is so much money being pumped into the University, meaning that the facilities students have access to are the very best and latest, the teaching standards are second to none. Being a campus-based university everything you need is at your doorstep. Yet you are not even remotely isolated from everything, a train into the city centre takes less than 10mins and then you have a great city to explore. The number of lecture theatres is incredible, and the university is well mapped out so finding all the different rooms isn't difficult. The sports facilities are amazing with the new £55 sports complex. Student union does a great job of keeping the students satisfied and a good night out. Career services are amazing have a whole department dedicated to career services. Overall they are very well organised.
