I love it at Hallam.

(5)·By Daisy L·English Studies· Jun 2026
My course is absolutely incredible. I’m so lucky to be taught by specialists for all modules. I particularly love the creative writing module; it is so freeing and empowering to be able to write what I love. I love the social scene as well. There are so many inclusive events, whether in town or organized by the students' union. Sometimes I wish I did live in halls.

My course is pharmacy, and there are many career opportunities in this field. I am not looking for accommodation because I live with my family. The social life here is excellent, with many students participating in various activities. The main highlight is the teaching pattern and student life at the university.

In my time at Hallam, I have found that inclusivity and student wellbeing are at the centre of everything the university does. I lived in halls during my first year and found it incredibly easy to meet people, join sports clubs, and access a wide range of social and nature hotspots such as cafes, bars, clubs, the Peaks, and parks.

I am really enjoying my course and everyone I've met through the university. The accommodation here is one of the most affordable in cities but by far the nicest I have seen. I adore my flatmates and we've had many good nights out together in Sheffield.

Review of my course and accommodation

(5)·By Melissa D·Law· Jun 2024
The quality of my course is really good because of how it is structured, allowing us students to balance life and education. My accommodation is also very good, with reasonable pricing that is not too expensive but still of high quality.

Small class sizes ensure that you receive personalized support on various levels, including weekly meetings with your academic advisor and the option to meet with a careers advisor whenever needed. The curriculum emphasizes practical skills and career development, with weekly lab sessions and a module dedicated to enhancing employability skills. Additionally, accommodation costs are very affordable.

Motivating University

(5)·By Emily A·Medicine· Jun 2024
At Hallam, everyone is so motivated to help you succeed. The staff always make time for you and do whatever they can to support you. They never make you feel like an inconvenience and are understanding and caring. Studying nursing has been challenging, but I wouldn't choose any other university to do it at.

Great accommodation offers with many people to meet, being close to the city. Feeling safe all the time. Many bars and shops in the location. Great opportunities from my course too.
