Outside the classroom, Loughborough offers countless ways to get involved. Sport has been a huge part of my experience here. Even if you’re not an elite athlete, there are opportunities like IMS (Inter-Mural Sports), where halls compete in many sports.
There are also one-day events with activities like beach volleyball, which are a fun way to try something different and meet new people. I’ve played football and squash socially and it’s been a great way to make friends and stay active. The campus gym is incredible too – it even uses air pressure technology instead of traditional weights, which is something I’d never seen before.
