Not been to the actual city centre, but been to Hillsbrough Football Stadium a few times and Meadowhall..quite a few times.
Don't live too far from there either.
Like others have said it's best to get a feel of the place first.
City campus is a good one as well as Colligiate depending where you'd be based.
I like SHU it's good!
(Then again this was bound to be biased going there myself...:))
PM us though if you want to know more about it - but Visit yourself!

yeh, my course will base me on the collegiate campus; however, the only accomodation their is catered and doesn't look very nice so i'm going to try exchange works or something.
There's a whole shed load of student places for rent around collegiate crescent so if you don't want to go in halls then don't bother.
I've no real idea which halls are best because they have closed and opened different ones since I was there, it's a good city though.
Which course is it?
Well I wanted to go in Halls really.
Criminology and Sociology.
firstly i should say, don't go to leeds! my bf was at leeds uni for a few years and a mate at met and leeds is not the best city to be a student in if u want to stay safe! nite lifes good but thats about it unfortunately.
Sheffield is one of the safest cities in the country and SHU is good. In terms of halls, there is Charlotte Court, new this accademic year which is self-catered and en-suite which is good and has a number of parking spaces but you can also park on the road outside. its easy to get to collegiate from there. There is also Bramall Court which is obviously near to Bramall Lane, (Shef Utd). The halls at collegiate arent't the best but are right on campus so if ur lazy and like to get up late thats a good option. Norfolk park should be a big no-no cos of the distance to Uni (all 3 campuses) and its not the best area up there.
Contact the uni accommodation office for more advice and rememeber you can go visit the halls and take a look around before u decide which one.
Hope this has helped.

Secondly your opinions of Leeds 'not being safe' are unjust, incorrect and invalid.
