The University Of Manchester

Staffs in University of Manchester can get the most basic copy and paste job wrong and give a lot of excuses when I asked them where my degree certificate was. I almost couldn’t get into my master programme because the staff who answered the call refused to answer any question after 15 minutes’ Coldplay ringtone (which cost me loads with the international call). She just kept saying that they got thousands of certificates to send and they couldn’t check whose certificates has been sent until the call was finally redirected to the staff who was responsible for graduation operations. And he said all the certificates had already been sent (Why did the staff who answered the phone in the first place give a completely different answer????). Turned out that they got both of my address and email address wrong - how incompetent can they be to put my email “gamil” instead of gmail? Isn’t it just a copy and paste job? Or do they not have autocorrect function in their system because my laptop just did it for me. The staff who answered the phone was not helpful at all. I feel I was punished for not paying for graduation ceremony and getting my degree certificate there. They treated me like I didn’t pay 18 grands of tuition fees per year.

The best thing for being sad," replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something. That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.

I encourage all readers of this review to bear in mind that this experience was from 1974 when I finished university. I tried to add a review back then but there wasn't a google page available at the time. So, I always wanted to be a part of the students union during my studies but was never given the chance. I put my name in the hat for all three of the years I studied there. I used to think that the system was honest and fair and that the best candidates would get chance to add value to what was a cracking place to study. Absolutely fricking not, the panel is nothing but an old boy's club who vote in the man they think can drink a pint of pedigree the fastest out of their shoes. Now I'm sure they will insist things have changed since I studied there blah blah blah usual stuff. If you like pedigree then this is definitely for you, if not - get yourself over to Warwick!

This review is in regard to ON CAMPUS ACCOMMODATION. BEWARE- If you are a potential student who is considering on campus accommodation. As an international Masters student, I have never been subjected to such rudeness, inconsideration, and disregard before and my feelings are shared by many of my colleagues. With a lack of communication and general disdain for students' well-being, the accommodation staff at the University of Manchester are the worst university staff I have ever encountered, and I work in higher education! Spotty wifi, barely maintained facilities, and substandard cleaning services as well as entire accommodations being forcibly evicted with poor communication and processes are only some of the nightmares I've encountered during my year here. Please DO NOT waste your money living on campus. I had to as a last resort and it has made me regret completing my Masters degree at the University of Manchester.

One of the best universities. I've done two degrees here and loved every moment of it. They're extremely supportive and care about individual students. My lecturers always went the extra mile for us and made everything so enjoyable.

One of the best universities in the world. Has really good faculty and facilities!

Amazing place and world leading researchers. The university has obviously spent alot of cash making students as cozy as possible, but they can't change the weather:) Some of the negative comments are so silly they made me laugh.

I'm just going to say this right now, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem is 1000x better.
Peace, Love and Jesus

The University of Manchester is a Top Notch university in Manchester, United Kingdom. It has the state of the art facilities, a mixture of old and future looking buildings, students to help you, and also the professors are great here. I never been this place but, in the future I'll study here.
