Charlie Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 I'm sure quite a few of us will be starting Uni/College for the first time after the Summer. So we can talk about everything Uni in here. Got any worries? Not too sure what it's going to be like? Scared at having to make new friends and meet loads of people? I'm going to Strathclyde to study Marketing and Business Law (+ 2 other subjects which I choose when I go there). Freshers week is 22nd September I think. I'm definitely going to be staying in town, no chance I'm travelling in and out every day. Going to private Halls because I live too close to Glasgow to get into the Uni halls. http://www.unite-students.com Glasgow / Blackfriars. Good internet connection which supports Xbox live, which the uni halls don't.
DCK Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Going to University of Twente to study Informatics. Really looking forward to student life. Freshman week starts next Tuesday and I'll be moving over Sunday
My Buttons are Magic! Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 university of ulster in coleraine to study media studies staying in halls because im lazy and i want to make new friends results on thursday - hope i get what i need to get in like!
Problematique Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Good internet connection which supports Xbox live, which the uni halls don't. You lucky chap. I hardly got any gaming in last year. By the way, if anyone is renting a house from Bannits and you need repairs, phone them every day. And talk to Sharon. I'm looking forward to this year. Although apparently the work is a right bastard. Oh well. You only live once. Sharking freshers FTW! (lolz, not really)
Monopolyman Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Got any worries? If I get the grades to get in for a start. I think I might have fucked up Maths. But if I do get in, I'm doing Civil Engineering at Liverpool Uni. Freshers week starts on the 22nd I think. Staying in halls, and catering as well. The whole shi-bang.
Sooj Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 I'm at the university of Paisley studying Law and Politics, got my first year results through and I did pretty well considering I didn't do much at all and with those results I have just after gone through clearence for both Strathclyde & Glasgow university. I really want to do Politics and drop law so I have applied for politics, sociology and social work at Strathclyde uni and will accept anyone of those courses. Sadly politics at Glasgow doesn't go into clearing so I applied for Religious & Philosophical studies woth secondary teaching. woo. Hope for the best. If that falls through then I suppose I'll just proceed to 2nd year at paisley boo :P
killthenet Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Queen Mary University in London, studying film. Heading down on 15th September. Looking forward to it, just need to get a job when i'm down there though. Good nightlife, but darn expensive.
Wesley Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 I decided not to go to Uni just yet and try out music... sometimes I think, "Wow... that was a big mistake... I could easily be at Uni now..."
Sanchez Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Well, I just firmly accepted a place at Robert Gordon's in aberdeen with an insurance of Stirling. I'm doing Computing science.
Ramar Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 I'll be doing my second year at Univeristy of Bedfordshire, studying Computer Games Development. Currently shitting my pants because my loan is still being assessed.. I submitted my application back in May ffs.
Mr_Odwin Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 I did my BSc at Newcastle - Ace city, uni and students. I did my MPhil at Nottingham - Ok city, didn't like the uni and students were unfriendly.
BlueStar Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Finished my degree in Stoke 5 years ago. Went back a few months ago for a reunion. It's still a hell hole.

Duuuuuddeee.I'm going to Stirling to do Computing Science,should of went there
Charlie Posted August 13, 2007 Author Posted August 13, 2007 Duuuuuddeee.I'm going to Stirling to do Computing Science,should of went there Are you going to be living in Stirling? I was in Stirling on Saturday night, a fair few noombers out and about. Number 2 Baker Street (a pub) is awesome, I've had some (2) very funny nights in there. It's a bit of an old man's pub which makes it even better. One time we met a drug dealer called Paddy and some guy had a push-up competition with him on the floor of the pub.
Blackfox Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 it's all about the hull massive. AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!

Not gonna be staying there.The experience they're would be good, but it's so much cheaper just getting the bus in
EchoDesiato Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 On the 24th of September my life as a student of the Leuven University starts. I'll be studying what is called Japanology here. Yup, that's what it's called, and it's pretty obvious what it's about. I'll be living in Leuven on my own during weekdays as well. Pretty exciting stuff. Holy shit I'm nervous.
