What people say about Stellenbosch University

Woensdregt Basson ★★★ · Google review · 2 months ago

Vast, clean campus, but not well marked. Limited Parking far from certain lecture rooms. Lively campus life.

Nicolas matano ★★★★★ · Google review · a month ago

As tourists, beautiful town and university to walk around, have coffee and watch people going by

Andre van der Vyver ★★★★★ · Google review · 12 months ago

Nice atmosphere and walking between the plants and following pathways is relaxing and bring calmness. Great food at the restaurant and great service. Will revisit anytime.

Rooibos Poppy Gal ★★★ · Google review · a month ago

The university is well maintained, just wished there were MORE parking spots for postgraduate students! Hence, the 3 star. If more parking, I would give more stars.
