rizz Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I am considering going to a Uni in Manchester. I don't want to have to get a proper job and it'll be close to where all the bands come and play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Hehe, i saw my name mentioned. Thought you guys would have forgotten me by now. Be sure to find out as much information as you can about the course you want to take. Also, look over the city/place where it resides, and what the place has to offer for you. I didn't do much of this, but everything turned out spectacular because i'm a flukey s.o.b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rizz Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 It sucks that I probably wont be able to do some courses I like because either I have shitty options at college or my interests have changed so I never did the required gcse into A level courses.

rizz Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Woolston. The 6th form runs between woolston and padgate though these days. Padgate highschool is also fearnhead college, which makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I'm at James Watt College in Greenock. here's one: don't. I mean, the college is not at all bad, but Greenock is a total blasted wasteland, populated only by the shambiling hordes of the undead. So unless you fancing living in some kind of perverse Racoon-city esque urban wilderness, stear clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 bob: Just how hard is it lugging your shopping back from the nearby Tesco? This is a crucial factor in my decision-making process. Depends entirely on which halls you end up living in, and how much you buy. But if you buy a large rucksack, just put it all in that, and you are laughing all the way back. I literally did laugh all the way back last time.....happy times. Oh and Ashley, ive never heard of her. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McPhee Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 try going on this website: http://www.newstudent.org every university has its own forum on there and a lot of people use it so you can get a good idea of the sort of people who will be starting at that uni this year.

Blackfox Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I gots me one offer out of 4. So I'll be off to HYMS come September 2007 (taking a gap year) pending i get AAB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Dunno if I mentioned it here but I still haven't made up my mind about whether to go ahead with my Derby offer or switch (through a long complex process) to UCE. UCE is closer to home so I can come back and see my friends more, plus I know and love Brum. But then I'd have to give up some stuff, namely en-suite. I need an en-suite. Oh and have loan applications started? Problem when you take a gap year, you're out of the loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Via the wonders of facebook i have found your Christina Wyer. Its seems she lives in Arthur Vick and hence is posh. It seems i have one mutual friend, a one Tommy Precious. Hmmmm. Do i add her? Or do i not.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I have no idea what facebook is but I say, cause she may wonder why and I don't want to seem like im spreading her name round everywhere. Makes me seem...weird. And she only thinks im odd, weird is a big step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I had an interview at Hertfordshire last week, and they accepted me on the spot for 3D Games Art, which I was really pleased about. I've been accepted for all of my choices except one, which was Derby, and I sent that choice off at a later stage.........so hopefully they'll get back to me soon. And Ashley, I'm pretty sure the loan applications are available now. I'll find the link in abit. Edit - Info on Finance Apps The link forwards to a topic on http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk which some of you may of heard of. Loads of info on there. The finance form links are in the first and second post of that topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fields Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I need an en-suite. No you don't. Honestly, there are so many things to worry about when you start uni, but I never once thought 'ZOMG I HAVE TO SHARE A SHOWER WITH 4 OTHER PEOPLE!!!!!!11' There is more to life.

Ashley Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 No you don't. Honestly, there are so many things to worry about when you start uni, but I never once thought 'ZOMG I HAVE TO SHARE A SHOWER WITH 4 OTHER PEOPLE!!!!!!11' There is more to life. Believe me, it was far from my top priority. And I would never say "ZOMG". If it was that much of an issue to me I wouldn't even consider another uni. And Im not worried about sharing a showing, its just the practicality. Im an awkward sleeper and a shower before bed relaxes me. And cheers Colin, I'll look into it tomorrow.

Mr_Odwin Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 a shower before bed relaxes me Is that a problem? I would think it's more a bonus as you won't be competing for it at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 when i was in halls if was a flat with 5 peopkle and there was never a single time when trhere was a bathroom queue, as we were all on different courses and needing to do different things. if you think you'll all be fighting for the shower at 7.30am each morning you have the wrong idea about being a student!
