NOT FOR NON-BRITISH STUDENTS. Ask almost any Sheffield student or graduate about their experience at university and they will say it is/was amazing. I do not share the views of the majority because my personal experience was dreadful, and I put this down to my background: I attended an international school in Brussels before going to uni, and I am half Italian. Sheffield is very 'British' insular city, and it is not very welcoming to non-British people such as myself. My peers reminded me that I was inferior due to my origins in the comments they made to me on a regular basis, which made for a very uninviting atmosphere. Furthermore, as someone who has experienced life on the other side of the Channel, I simply could not see eye to eye with any of my peers, most of whom had grown up in Middle/provincial England. Sheffield's decision to vote Brexit, for me, is a clear reflection of the attitudes that people in this part of the UK have towards non-British people. Of course, everyone's experience is different, and perhaps there are people from similar backgrounds to me who were able to see what was so special about Sheffield. Nonetheless, my personal final message is: if you are international/half-non-British/British but grown up abroad, I URGE you NOT to choose this university. If it is your desire to study in the UK and you come into one of the categories I have mentioned, I would recommend looking at more internationally-recognised/prestigious universities in more internationally-friendly/metropolitan areas of the UK, particularly London, but also Oxbridge/Durham/Warwick, and I would discourage you from studying in places like Sheffield/Lancaster/Reading/Liverpool/Bir mingham, i.e. other towns and cities in Middle/provincial England which host universities that are not well-recognised outside the UK.

The University of Sheffield (informally Sheffield University[3][4]) is a public research university in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It received its royal charter in 1905 as successor to the University College of Sheffield, which was established in 1897 by the merger of Sheffield Medical School (founded in 1828), Firth College (1879) and Sheffield Technical School (1884).[5]
Sheffield is a multi-campus university predominantly over two campus areas: the Western Bank and the St George's.[6] The university is organised into five academic faculties composed of multiple departments. It had 18,975 undergraduate and 8,220 postgraduate students in 2014/15 and its total and research income came to £635.7 million and £168.5 million in 2015/16 respectively, both of which were among the top 10 in UK universities.[1]
The university is widely recognised as a leading institution in the UK and across the globe.[7][8][9] The results of the 2014 Research Excellence Framework put Sheffield in the top 10 per cent of all UK universities. The quality, breadth and volume of the University’s research activity are demonstrated by the fact that 86 per cent of the research submitted by the academic staff has been rigorously judged as world leading or internationally excellent. Sheffield was placed 80th worldwide by The QS World University Rankings 2015-16 and it has been firmly cited as a world top-100 university since 2004.[10] In 2011, Sheffield was named 'University of the Year' in the Times Higher Education awards.[11] The Times Higher Education Student Experience Survey 2014 ranked the University of Sheffield 1st for student experience, social life, university facilities and accommodation, among other categories.
It is one of the original red brick universities, a member of the Russell Group of research-intensive universities, the Worldwide Universities Network, the N8 Group of the eight most research intensive universities in Northern England and the White Rose University Consortium. There are seven Nobel Prize laureates amongst Sheffield academics, six of which are its alumni or former staff
