Loughborough University in one paragraph...
"Overall, Loughborough has a lot to offer, and the size of the town shouldn't stop people applying. The campus is a world of its own, when it's full of students and there is always a buzz when walking around. The first time I saw the campus, I knew I wanted to go to University in Loughborough. My first year has been fantastic, the course is great, the facilities are great, and most of all the experience is great!" says Archie - read the whole review here.

The best and worst things about Loughborough University:
"The best thing is it's campus based, so there is a good all round community feel. The facilities are second to none, and there is a good social and academic side to the university."

"The best thing is most definitely the excellent sport facilities and social life.
The worst thing is the town isn't amazing, however as there are so many students around you hardly notice it. "

"The best thing is that it is very diverse and very welcoming. The campus is amazing and so is the Students' Union. There is a lot going on and everyone has a chance of getting involved. I'd say the worst thing is the lack of feedback given (because contact time isn't enough respectively)."

Tim, doing Civil Engineering - Read more "As many of the halls are brand new or have 120-150pw catered. Quite expensive.They are all a very high standard and almost all seem to have double beds. The food is really good quality for the catered students and for self catered the kitchen facilities are of a high standard so you really do get good value. There are cheaper options of living in student houses or in some of the older halls."
