Black People that Go Sheffield University

theres a lot of somalis in the surrounding area but i dont know about the uni itself but i see a few black people but i dont think there are that much people from london

Ite thanks for replying.

I'm black and all, but honestly why does it matter?

It matters cause i feel comfortable around black people and people from London in general, its not really rocket science now isit.

i don't think sheffield is for you. it is a good solid northern university and the last thing they need is a tricksy londoner.

Is there a decent proportion of Black people and people from London in general that go Sheffield University?



Thank You.

Racial segregation ftw! **** career prospects!


Go to a uni that has a good course - not one with a particular ethnic demography, what is this, the 50s?

Thank You.

walking into a room/group/area where there are is large majority of White people can sometimes be slightly intimidating,especially knowing many of them will already have preconceived ideas about you

Wow, heads up room/group/area of stereotypers, little miss stereotyper just walked into the room.

Don't know why people always make a big deal out of these threads. In all honestly,walking into a room/group/area where there are is large majority of White people can sometimes be slightly intimidating,especially knowing many of them will already have preconceived ideas about you.
Black people also sometimes find it easier to mix with other Blacks because of the cultural similarities,eg. Music,food or whatever,so it'll be easier to get to know them and start conversations. Don't know why some people find it so hard to understand.

Anyway,about seven Black guys I know all applied to Sheffield this year,they're all best friends and when they came back from the open day they didn't have anything negative to say. It was a change of environment,and when they went into town they said it wasn't particularly multicultural but overall they liked it there.

I understand what you mean, but i'm not going to go to a university where i'm miserable.

I use to go up to Sheffield and Huddersfield; there is a far amount of mix race people, as well as black people there. I do not know about the university, I am looking to go to York or Lancaster from London, and so I know how you feel. Nevertheless, try not to see it as a colour issue, but rather as people you will get on with and those you will not get on with, irrelevant of ones colour.
