Dundee Applicants 2012!!!!

Have you looked on the Facebook group for Belmont? I'm staying in Heathfield I'm still to find people who aren't studying Medicine or Dentistry though!

This entirely depends on where he is from - Scottish students and EU applicants pay £1.820 (or nothing at all, if the Scottish government pays their fees), English students at Scottish universities pay the same fees (£9.000) as they would pay at home.

But overall Dundee is considered one of the cheapest student cities in the UK and the average cost of living is at least 10% under the national average.

Got my accommodation today im in Heathfield Flat 62, room 4 anyone else ??? xx

That's good then, cool I'm from St Andrews!

Sadly I don't know much of Leeds or Manchester (all my choices were in Scotland).
I compared it to the different universities that I was looking into, on here . Surely this is not enough, but it was a starter. Then I spitballed around with my mate, trying to see the pros and cons of going to the different ones. Seeing as I know a few people who also live in Dundee, it weighed in a bit more. They had also told me that the UoD has a good reputation and I trust them.

If you're worried cost-wise, I think the UoD will be the cheaper one as well. Was around £1860 or so, least for my programme. Looked into Leeds and it seems more expensive. That is, if price is a big deal for you. (I might've seen wrong on the Leeds price, but I'm guessing you know it better than me)


The city itself is nice as well I hear, least the west end(where the University is). It's also the sunniest city in Scotland

I'd say that if all three are respected unis, the outcome will pretty much be the same. So choosing whichever is the most comfortable is important.

I'm from Croatia and I'm about to pay 9700 GBP for the first year and I hope that I will be considered as EU student in the second year.
(We are going to enter EU on 1 July 2013)




Thanks a lot.

UoD ranks pretty well in comparison with those 3 I mentioned.
It has the lowest average entry tariff among my choices,this is one of reasons why I was a bit skeptical.
(and their conditional offer is quite undemanding)
English uni's cost around 12000GBP for overseas students


I believe I will take UoD as insurance and University of Warwick as my firm choice.
I still hope I will succeed to get in there because they rank very high.




BTW,does somebody know if EU students are eligible to apply for a student loan in England?

And EU students don't qualify for UK government loans and grants (except for the fact that they don't have to pay the fees upfront but start to pay it back whenever they earn a certain amount of money.

Well,I didn't mean that I will get a loan for my living costs etc.
If I start paying my tuition fees after I start working isn't it a kind of a loan?
Isn't that what English students get?
A loan for financing their tuition cost which they start to pay back once they earn more than 21000gbp a year?

That's what UK students get, but they also get loans and grants to cover the cost for accommodation, food etc., based on the income of their parents. It's the same where I am from (Germany), students whose parents cannot afford (or struggle) to send their children to university get money from the government to cover their living costs - up to 670€ per month.

So if I'm considered as EU student I can get a loan to cover tuition fees?
That's great.
I never expected anything more than that
