Heyy im Greg.

Just about to finish college then off to University in September. However on ym application ive been given til today to choose which university i would like to accept and im mentally tired by it all now!...So i thought id ask the fellow TSR'ers what they thought and to give some opinions:
So i Basically i was brought up in Newcastle, last year had to move to Leeds with my mam due to divorce and now have a choice to make..they are either:
-Stay close and go to Leeds met -(kind of not keen on this tbh) but have new mates her..family nearby...brother goes to Leeds Uni..etc

-Sunderland Uni - Move back up to where my roots are but just a short journey from friends i had up there and relive university life with childhood and school friends...'Expand past memories'

-Manchester Met - Start a whole new life in a massive city which iv been to a few times and really enjoyed it...obviously make alotof new friends and be ina thriving Uk city unlike Sunderland being not all that great!...

So Thats my choices its really between either moving bakc and going to university near my old friends but best friends but in a not so great place...or start fresh ina thrivin city..but make new mates again...

Also wud be a bit more expensive to go manchester then sunderland..so might be 20-30 short of money each week at manchester then sunderland!

Any ideas?....Thoughts of what i should do?

True Sunderland is a bit naff but it is a cheaper place to live and you have friends there, plus you are only a metro away from Newcastle or a train/bus from the metrocentre. My brother went to Sunderland Uni and enjoyed his time there, I personally am moving away from home though I'm sure whatever you choose you'll transition no problem
