  The reviews here are very suspicious. Essex is not a good university especially for international students. The food is awful. Washers and dryers are very expensive (I paid 15 quid for 2 loads and they weren't even dry, this is a huge problem that the student here have voiced but the university has ignored them). The teachers are not very involved, they give you a bunch of reading and simply tell you to write an essay (very hands off teaching methods). Accommodation is also very poor. When I moved into my room, the mattress had a blood stain and the carpet also had mysterious stains on it. Things are always broken. The front gate was down for over a month and now the lift has been broken for a month. This is bad for those living on the 6th and 7th floors, especially after shopping for grocery. The events sound nice but are poorly put together, resulting in utter disappointment. There are a LOT of events that are "compulsory" in which you need to leave your class early or not even go and many of these events do not even follow the time they set. And least but most importantly, the mental health services are poor. I've been in contact with other students suffering from depression, suicidal even and could not get support. We recently had a student commit suicide (kept under wraps) and nothing has changed. I could list a million more reasons but its just too much to type. I'm thinking of withdrawing soon.
