University of Greenwich

University of Greenwich is an amazing university with many opportunities available for all students, from bachelor's to PhD students. I would say society activities should improve. I have joined the Business and Accounting Society, but I haven’t received any news regarding upcoming events.

I am currently at a really good place when it comes to my university stay, and I wouldn't add anything else.

Avery Hill Campus has a strong campus community feel because your halls and classes are all in one place, with green spaces, sports facilities, and student services right on site. The campus is set in Eltham, south-east London, with plenty of pretty grounds and a traditional “campus” atmosphere that’s more laid-back than the city centre.

Staff and support services are approachable and helpful, with diverse, inclusive classrooms and good wellbeing support available.

Living on campus in Avery Hill Student Village means your accommodation is just steps from lectures, the gym, café, shop, and launderette, which many students find very convenient. You’re part of a community of around 1,200 students.

On-campus halls offer varying room types, including shared flats with private bedrooms and some flats with en-suite facilities. Wi-Fi is included, and there is 24/7 residential support. There is a free inter-campus bus to Greenwich and other sites. If your course is based at Greenwich Campus, commuting is manageable with the free university shuttle bus and local buses linking to rail and Tube stations. London transport can get you into central London in about 30–40 minutes by train or Tube, making it good for exploring or nightlife.

I appreciate the supportive tutors and practical focus of my degree. However, some parts of programmes could be more modern or better organised, which varies by department and year.

Social life at Avery Hill is a mix. Living on campus makes it easy to meet people, with shared halls, common areas, and onsite facilities helping to build connections. Student clubs and societies run by the Students’ Union (GSU) offer plenty of chances to connect, and there are lots of sport and outdoor spaces if you enjoy activities.

There isn’t a lot to do on campus itself, and things can feel quiet if you’re not into organised events. Nightlife and bigger social events are more accessible in central London, so you might head into town on weekends.

Very good university for law in my opinion. The accommodation is very modern, and there is a great social life.

University has been an amazing experience overall. My midwife course has been quite challenging at times; however, it’s been great. It has been my dream profession since childhood.

Social life is perfect; all of my friends live nearby, and we share the same hobbies.

Studying at the University of Greenwich can feel like a really nice experience overall, especially because the campus is genuinely beautiful and the environment is very welcoming, with students from all over the world. Many people enjoy their time there, particularly in courses like business, nursing, and engineering, where the learning is quite practical. However, some students find the administration slow and a bit frustrating, and the teaching quality can depend a lot on your specific course. In the end, it’s a good, solid university.

Best professor, amazing social experience.

Such a nice campus to complete your studies. I like the vibe there.

My experience at the University of Greenwich has been mostly positive. Student life is enjoyable and very diverse, which makes it easy to meet people and feel comfortable. My course is practical and relevant, and most lecturers are supportive and approachable. Commuting is fairly easy thanks to good transport links, and the campus itself is beautiful, which makes being there more motivating. Accommodation is decent but can be expensive, and finding a place can sometimes be stressful. The social scene is fun, with lots of societies, events, and things to do both on campus and around London. Overall, it’s a good university with a friendly atmosphere, though better accommodation options and facilities would improve the experience.
