NUI Maynooth Review

The place is very large and fully equipped with materials.The graduation had loads of FOOOOOOOOOOOD!

Great university! Nice people and great churches to visit

Currently doing a master's here, having not done my undergraduate studies here. I really like the university. The staff are excellent and the campus is modern and varied. The only problem with maynooth is the traffic. It can be a pain to drive here but sure it's no worse than TCD UCD or DCU.

Beautiful University campus and it is well connected. A learners paradise.

One of the most beautiful Universities in the country

World class university, I know a guy who goes here.

Great University and probably the most diverse of all. Both modern and old make it a great atmosphere to study in. Going into third year and the experience here has been nothing short of wonderful. Great lecturers and great helpful staff. Wonderful calm atmosphere too. Has to be the most underrated university compared to TCD UCD

I went here for years so I'm biased. But the grounds on the south campus are gorgeous and the village is a sixty second stroll from both campuses.

Very nice campus, not as busy as others. Lovely atmosphere. Old and new campus reflecting the traditional priest training and modern university.

Awful Uni. Music and Music Technology is a joke and I feel as if I've wasted so much time here. If I could give this college no stars, I would.

BEst University

The college ambiance is very good.Best college for studying.one can go in any field and can achieve their dreams in any filed like motor sporting, dancing, singing AND MOST IMPORTANTLY SPORTS

After graduation I went straight onto a building site and have been here ever since. Can I have my 4 years back?

Interesting place. University town. Surprisingly quiet at moment due online classes. I am not sure that will ever change. 2020.

Maynooth University libuary with its own Starbuck is splended

Great university to go to ! Excellent staff and a wide range of courses to choose from. Also a great deal of clubs and societies to get involved in from extra curricular activities

we stayed here during the study holiday, the campus is very nice, the rooms perfect, there are also sports fields, classes, a lecture hall, the canteen, the disco and many more

Neat little university. Take a walk around and explore the place.

Great university beautiful grounds fantastic academics and very warm and wrlcoming.

More pillows would be great.noise levels up tp 3 o clock in the morning and no blind on the window n d bedroom all combined to make this not such a great stay.
Every other time we stayed it was brilliant and that is why we were so disappointed. Tbf breakfast in pugain was lovely.

Fantastico...A big hug to the music student who guided us to the chapel.....Fantastic University. ....in The 22th July at 16.55 pm.Leve my your mail cose I wanna sent to you some fotos. ...John. A hug from Rome.

There are pros and cons but it is a nice place to study.

Maynooth University, Ireland offers an outstanding education in a range of undergraduate & postgraduate courses, led by internationally-renowned researchers.

Friendly campus in the heart of Maynooth town. Good atmosphere with on site facilities. Members of staff very friendly and helpful. On site parking for badge holders and pay and display. Walking distance to public transport and shopping centers.

Beautiful and nice place to be, breathtaking landscape nice infrastructure.Spacious accomodation.Scrumptious meals too.

Great labs , but serious lack of communication science course needs a new layout with more emphasis on securing employment at the end of the course needs to be more work focused like tallaght i.t nuim is really far behind in my opinion

Great place to stay during summer while students are on holiday. Beautiful old campus. Lovely place and great grounds to wander around.

Good lecture rooms. Poor traffic management during building works. A new, or more than one, exit/entrance would help. No food cafe all day on Saturday tells teachers and students what is thought of them.

Grounds are beautiful and well worth a wander. Best seen on a guided tour, as many locations are not accessible to visitors otherwise.
