There is no thread for 2012 yet, but I think It's about time that there should be.

I'm applying to the Live Events Production FdA, What about you?

[Iola :}]

Surely I'm not the only person here applying to Bolton this year?

[Ninsei]

You're not
BSc Special Effects Development, can't wait to know if I'm accepted!

Btw I live in Wales right now.

I hate waiting.

Haha, congratulations!

You need to get a list of what you're going to take and whatnot now, Exciting isn't it?

First things first, I need to look for a flat! I live with my bf, who's going to do masters at Salford uni so it's not an option for us to live in halls... Haha crazy few months ahead of me! But anyway I'm so happy that I could die now (well, maybe not, but almost!).

Ooh, good luck

I've found out through a current student that I have to look for a flat myself, but it has to be in Wakefield

I'll bump this thread, just in case

[Ninsei]

Seems like we really are the only people applying to Bolton this year. Well I knew it's a small uni but didn't expect it's this small

I've had a couple of other applicants PM me about Bolton before, so there's at least two more of you, they just might not have found their way into this forum [=

On that note I'm just finishing up my first year here, if anybody does stumble onto this thread and has any questions.

Okay then, the lamest question I could think of - how do you like it so far?
Is the town as boring as they say? I still can't decide whether to look for a flat in Bolton or in Manchester or somewhere in between these two...

Great, welcome to our humble group! What course did you choose?

Don't come to Bolton ! I've lived here for since I was born (18 years ago) and it's terrible xD

I've enjoyed it plenty [= uni really is what you make of it, get a decent group of friends and you can enjoy yourself anywhere. The town is fine, obviously not the biggest sprawling nightlife you'll find anywhere but there's a couple of clubs which really suit my kind of music tastes and manchester's only 15 minutes away on the train.If you want to be right in the thick of it 99% of the time, then looking at living in manc might be worth looking at, but Bolton certainly isn't too bad.

Seems to me that everyone who lives in this area hates it, whereas most people from the outside say it's fine

Thanks a lot So what types of music you get in Bolton's clubs? And I was wondering if the town is any 'dangerous'? I think I've seen some people saying it is.
And if you know anything about job seeking in Bolton? Is it hard to find something?
