Good university, the woman had enthused (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gushed

'enthused' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'good university the woman had' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'university' becomes 'U' (abbreviation for university).
'the woman had' becomes 'shed' (she'd).
'g'+'u'+'shed'='GUSHED'

(Other definitions for gushed that I've seen before include "Enthused" , "Spurted out as from fountain or oil well" , "Effused" , "Poured out or spoke extravagantly" , "Flowed out strongly, water or words" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
