    Ah, didn't think of that..
    Thanks for the help.

    Have you visited the Uni? I missed the open day :/ so I don't really have a lot to judge on
    I haven't been to an open day unfortunately but I do spend a lot of time in Bristol, the city is wonderful. I have friends that are really enjoying their time at UWE too, it seems like a great uni.

    I went the open day but was hungover. But...

    It's a mixture of old and new buildings.

    Might be far out of town but we got a 7 seater cab from Glenside to Syndicate and was £15 each but we haggled him down to £1.50 each.

    Sent my ucas off on friday, still waiting for the welcome letter in the post :P
    I'm also applying to study Law at UWE.
    Course looks great, as does the town.
    Only concerns is the expensive accommodation (£135/ week in halls)
    and that the Fenchay campus is 4/5 miles away from the city.. = expensive transport

    Anyone else having these concerns?
    I think if I go UWE I'll live on campus. You get given a bus pass at the beginning of the year to commute to and from the town center.

    4/5 miles though? I didn't think it was that far.

    Re: UWE Applicants 2012
    In my first year doing LLB Law at UWE.

    The accommodation (I'm in the Student Village) is amazing! Huge room!
    The course is amazing, the lecturers are helpful; although the course is a lot of tough work it is thoroughly enjoyable. The Student Union is great, all the people are nice; Bristol is a great place to go out both Day and especially night.

    So happy i came to UWE. Message me if people need answers
