depends on what you're looking for at uni. the credibility of your degree when you come out of it won't be as good as it would if you went to leicester uni.

most the halls are brand new, i've been in most of them and they are real posh. there is a couple of old halls which are bit shit. it's close to the city centre. the SU is nothing special now. night life is good though. the campus is buzzing in first simester. gym is cheap, $40 for the whole year.
Quote:
drinks are cheap, going out is cheap. always good gigs on most the time.
Quote:
downsides are that there is a 6th form college right next to it. there's always little "badboys" hanging around. but they are planing to give that building to dmu and move the college in the next year or 2.

also if you can't stand asians then don't go there. the place is infested with asians. whites are almost a minority there.

I applied to:

Uni of Manchester

Uni of Nottingham

Uni of Leeds

Uni of Newcastle

Uni of Sheffield

and London Skool of Economics

All of them were for Politics or Political StudiesandLSE was for Social Policyand I have receivedoffers from all except LSE and Manchester(who chose to waita month after everybody else gave me their offers/rejectionsbefore rejecting me).Why? Well I did choose Unis which were 'up north' because I live in London and I really want to leave now - not just because of family but also to see a different part of the country.London I thinkis too stale nowadays and EXPENSIVE. I only selected LSE to see whether they'd offer me anything on the advice of my tutor. Then I looked at Unis and I had a look at which were good for teaching Politics in League tables/books/advice from people as well.

Going to Nottingham tommorow for their open day as well and thatis my first choice at the moment...

Thanksseabiscuit ... and for you advice!

Even though its not what i really wanted to do, i think i'm still going to enjoy the 3 years. The course seems really interesting, and i could still try going for dentistry after this course.

And im going to be in LONDON! Cant wait now!blkscholar

You know what, I still haven't made my mind up yet.

Its going to be either Nottingham or Leedsnow but someone told me that I have to submit my student loan application by the end of the month so I'd better get a move on and reply to my offers because i'm always leaving things to thelast minute.blkthumbsdown

I'd pick Leeds. Nottingham's a bit crap. Easy to get bored there.
