Worcester University shortlisted for two WhatUni Student Choice awards

THE UNIVERSITY of Worcester is up for two awards at the WhatUni Student Choice Awards 2026.

It has been shortlisted in the Career Prospects and Halls and Student Accommodation categories.

The university has an exceptional national reputation for graduate employability. It is the top multi-subject university for sustained employment, further study, or both, with 96 per cent of graduates progressing into work or further study.

The university’s shortlisting in the Halls and Student Accommodation category highlights the quality, value, and supportive environment of its on-campus living options. Student feedback consistently praises the sense of community, convenience, and support that living in halls provides.




The news comes after it was announced last month that Worcester is on the final shortlist for University of the Year in the 2026 Graduate Futures Institute’s Academic Employability Awards.

Professor David Green, vice chancellor and chief executive, said: “It’s wonderful to be recognised in two categories that matter so much to students at the WhatUni Student Choice Awards. This reflects the dedication of our staff and partners who work every day to create an environment where students feel supported, inspired, and ready for their future.”


The winners of the WhatUni Student Choice Awards 2026 will be announced in May.
