I'm applying for English Language which has an AAB requirement. I'm predicted A*AAAB and my AS Level results were AAABC.

The name of the accommodation escapes me, but there was some over the motorway which looked relatively new which I'd hope to end up in! :smile:

Hope to get to know some people from here in the future!

Aha fellow medical applicant! :biggrin:

Did you apply to just Newcastle, or choose the "either campus" option? :smile:

I've applied for Biology :biggrin:

Course looks awesome. Wasn't so keen on the accommodation. I liked the Victoria Hall one over the motor way, but I dont think I could ever live there because there was no green or trees anywhere! Just cars and concrete :frown:

You can tell Im a Biology student can't you? :P
Anyway Im predicted A*A*A*A (A in Gen studs so not important). So Yay :smile:

People seem surprised Im going for Uni's asking ABB and stuff, but the course is way better than some that ask for AAA! So whatever :P

Another speech and language sciences! Strathclyde was my first choice but I've just spoken to a recent speech and language sciences graduate from Newcastle who absolutely raved about it! Think I have a difficult decision ahead! I was on holiday at the open day, do you know if there is another opportunity to visit?

sorry to intrude on the applicant's thread, i'm a fresher in my first month at the uni so i thought i could be of some help! :smile:

the buildings are all fairly close to each other, well the one's i know of are :smile:

i'm doing english literature and it's all fairly central.
i understand that there's some buildings that are a bit more spread out but the city is so easy to get around it's not an issue :smile:

as for a central point, the new su building's just been opened, a lot of people hang about there/outside there. it's opposite northern stage :smile:

it's a really nice building, with lounges and study group clusters, every time i go in there i find another little place i didn't know about haha!

it is a beautiful campus in that central area. the building i'm in is in the quadrangle, which is lovely.

^that's an example of how nice it is. there's more tour stuff on the website :smile:

even though the main campus is in the middle of town it does sometimes feel separated from the city, which is nice. but you can literally walk 2 mins into town as well. it's lovely :smile:

hope i've been of some assistance! haha :smile:
