What is Glasgow Caledonian really like?

Hi , Glasgow Caledonian's a great uni! Assuming you aren't frm here I'll give you a brief overview of the city. The uni is modern and not as rich in history as Glasgow University, Herriot-Watt etc. I'm from Glasgow myself and can say that you will love it. The city is very lively and Glasgow Caledonian is pretty much right in the city centre. Word of warning, stay in the city centre or to the west end. These are the better places and are full of students. Try not to venture off anywhere else, especially the east, although since you are a student i see no reason for you having to in the first place.

You will love the Scottish people, especially Glasweigans and we have a good sense of humour and are very proud of our history. You will find a big difference between Glasgow and Edinburgh. Edinburgh is much more old fashioned, is smaller and the people are more snobbier. Glasgow is much more working class, although the people are far friendlier IMO. I'm sure you will be aware of the massive football ivalry in the city between Rangers and Celtic, and not many outsiders realise how massive a part of Scottish culture this is.

Anyway, if you come here i really think you will love it. Good luck with your applications and if you have any further questions on Glasgow just let me know.

Hey, I've also applied for Dietetics & Nutriton at Glasgow Caledonian, Queen Margaret and Robert Gordon. I've heard back form all 3 uni's and been given a conditional for RGU, an unconditional from QMU and an unconditional from GCU. Not sure where I want to go yet! But just wondering if anybody else has heard anything back?

IT sucks!!! I haven't heard a thing from Cali! Should I contact them or what? I'm pretty unpatient person so the fact I know people have had offers etc it's making me pretty nervous and scared as this is where I wanna study at :'( Any advice??

I'm still waiting too but I'm not too worried because last year my friend didn't receive an offer until MAY!! I am just trying to be patient but like you I'm unsure of whether to contact them.

I've contacted them and they replied saying they will most likely reply by the end of march, however they have up until may to make a decision T_T it really sucks because I want to get my student finance over and done with !
