Student guide to Liverpool

Liverpool is one of the most popular UK cities for students, combining university presence with a strong social scene, keeping students busy all throughout the year. It has a student population of over 70,000 students across four different universities. The city offers a wide mix of culture, entertainment and career opportunities in various sectors, all while still remaining more affordable than many cities in the south of England.

 

Kensington, Wavertree, Smithdown Road and the Baltic Triangle are some of the most popular student areas. They each offer a mix of accommodation, cafes, bars and local businesses. The city itself is quite compact, making it walkable, and providing easy routes between lectures, social events and Liverpool’s most well-known attractions.

 

You will never be bored in Liverpool, as there is just so much to do! Students can spend time outside of lectures visiting the Royal Albert Dock, exploring Sefton Park, visiting Anfield Stadium or discovering the variety of independent shops, restaurants and bars. The atmosphere in Liverpool is difficult to replicate, and one like no other. This is due its music heritage, waterfront setting and packed events calendar. This all comes together to help create the perfect student life. The city itself is particularly known for its nightlife, especially among students. With student nights running all throughout the week and numerous clubs, bars and live music venues, there is always a unique way to spend your night.

 

Liverpool also offers strong transport links and a growing graduate job market, which adds even more appeal to the city for prospective (and current) students. It expands the number of internships and graduate opportunities that are on offer, making it a great place to study in.

 

For students looking for a social environment, and a city packed with personality, opportunities, and one that still holds that community feel, Liverpool delivers on all fronts.
