Very nice rooms, very nice stuff. But they won't let you bring someone to stay with you for more…read morethan 2 nights and you need to check in and check out your friends whenever they come.. The location isn't good also.

University of Warwick is located in the midlands, close to Leamington Spa and right outside of…read moreCoventry. Even though it's named Warwick it's actually closer to Coventry than the town of Warwick! I'm impressed with the design and layout of the university. Although it is located quite far away, it is situated in the beautiful English country-side. The building are newer looking (it was only built in the 1960s!) but not horribly concrete eyesores. The student union has some great restaurants, pubs, and student services. The Arts Centre is absolutely lush. There is a movie theatre, pub, and dining services inside, as well as, the art exhibition on display. Truly, it's worth checking out when you have some spare time. As I live in Leamington Spa, I normally catch the bus in the mornings. Buses are frequent and the ride is really easy. Leave early in the morning though (if you have morning classes/work) as the commute into Uni can take up to an hour. Especially if the bus goes through Kenilworth and not on the motorway. I also purchased a monthly pass (through Stagecoach) for about £67, which includes unlimited rides for a month! Not a bad deal, sure beats shelling out petrol on a daily commute!

Overall: An awesome University, but sadly located in Coventry…read more This is the university I fell in love with. I did my Chemistry with Medicinal Chemistry B.Sc.(Hons) here. I loved the way it felt - something I didn't feel with the other universities I visited. Although it's not exactly a brand new university, on universities scales it is a pretty young university, built in 1965 with most, if not all the buildings painted white. In the past few years, Warwick University has been in the top-ten highest ranked research institutes within the UK, and is slowly being recognised worldwide. It's a campus university with everything on campus, with three campus sites - main, Gibbet hill and Westwood. There are halls of residences dotted around the campuses and I have to give a five stars for the Jack Martin residences. It was probably more than I could afford, but it was worth it - each room has its own en-suite, but a shared kitchen. In my final year, I had a room in the Tocil residents, I soon moved out - it was a room, based in a flat full of 12 disgusting students, with 2-3 shared bathrooms - ewwwwwww. If you're a little more strapped for cash, try Rootes. The student union has expanded throughout the years and gives numerous facilities for having a good time or simply getting lunch/groceries. The university also has an Arts Centre, 25 m swimming pool, sports halls, gymnasium, squash courts, athletics track, rock indoor-climbing facility, tennis courts and cricket grounds. There's a couple of bad things about this university. Firstly, it's located in the outskirts of Coventry, and to get there from another city without a car, requires train and bus travel. Secondly, it's located in Coventry! It seems all is well when on campus, but as soon as you go out of the campus confines, it's dire!
