The people who say MMU isn't any good - generally aren't from MMU, MMU is one of the best for student suppport in my opinion with the lecturers acticely involved in wanting to help you get the most out of your university life.

There's a lot of places to go for nights out, Manchester has the most pubs and clubs i've ever seen in one area (probably second to London). There is places to go for music of all genres, there are cinemas, restaurants, pubs etc etc

There have been a lot of "star" (loosely used terms) appearances this year with bodger and badger, jesse from home and away, jo from s club 7 and antony from BB at the union. Last year they had the cheeky girls and your bound to get a few hollyoaks appearances.

IMO its hard to walk around manchester without seeing a Z list celebrity.

I didnt initial apply there on my original UCAS. I am using UCAS Extra and have decided to now apply to read Modern History... Hopefully I will get in. Have not looked at what halls there are around the campus yet...

Studly - ive already been round the Uni, but im at a different campus to you. My part is the Hollings campus and its amazing, everything seems really new and all the equipment is good and i look forward to the prospects the course holds. The accommodation im applying for as 1st choice is Daisy Bank Halls. Was gonna put Mill point down as 2nd choice as it looked quite nice....but i read that a parking space would cost £700 a year which im not really prepared to pay cos thats daft......

(And id say i want to take my car cos i live 2 hours away from manchester!)

Ive also been looking at private accommodation and was thinking of applying to 'Q3' it looks amazing!

Thanks 4 that jess, ive just been invited to a visit day to MMU on march the 1st 2006 but i aint received a offer from them yet just a letter,

So whats Daisy bank accommodation like, are the rooms private where only you can sleep or you gotta share wid someone. I dont wanna be doing that as i will be new to the campus.

What are the facilities like, are they good. and last important question did you see any sexy asian gals, lol.

thanks.

I know for some of the courses when you go to the visit day you get an interview. I didnt, i had already received my offer, but i still had to go and chat to somebody :smile:

Daisy Bank halls seems really nice, but its a ratio of 80:20 girls to boys.....So obviously guys may find it harder to get a place there.

All the rooms are ensuite, u just share a kitchen and living room.

Didnt see any sexy asian girls, but cant say i was looking out for them either! :p:

Thanks 4 that JESSR88.

I might go to a visit day, so whats it all about anyway is it like a open day or similar, ive already received an offer anyway so i dont think i will have to attend an interview.

The accommodation im thinking of is mill point because its in city centre and as i am doing accountnacy its much suitable.

What are the rooms like anyway in mill point. are the rooms private i hope so as I will be new. I know you have to share the living room and kitchen but that dont matter as there is sexy gal wid me lol.

and lastly have you been trafford centre, if you have is there a place called Namco Station.
