    Hi, I'm going to Southend Uni, but not sure whether or not to live there. I only live half an hour away, but would the cost of train fares be to much? Hmmmm, I'm not sure.

    ah right, good luck! I'm going to study journalism, what about you?

    I'm also thinking of going to Southend! Greetings from Norway btw. Not applying this year though. Trying to find other essex students who can give me other information about the uni. Heard Colchester is great, but not so much about Southend... Does anybody know if it is worth going to Southend?

    If your studying a health degree or an 'accredited' degree then you might enjoy this place. Its acting course is also quite comprehensive. If you want to study business however then run. Run as far and fast as you can.
