    Im still debating what university to go to!! Its killing me! I went to Southampton last year and I dropped out because I was doing english lit and it was dull as hellll!!! Soo I applied for Law at UWE and got an offer...but I dont knoww what to do!! My mum is like pushin me for itt...but I dnno....does anyone know what life is like there?? Obv, im going to study and that...but I cant be living in a s**t place lol. If I do go UWE...SEE YOU THERE GIRRL !!!
    I don't got to UWE but I've got alot of friends there so I can give a pretty good opinion. Bristol is probably my favoruite city in the UK its in no way dull or **** and theres always something going on every day/night of the week dont let thinking its going to be dull put you of because its the exact opposite of dull.

    I put Oxford Brookes as my firm, and UWE as my insurance...

    Kind of regretting it now, coz I dont think ill meet OB's grades.

    I think I'll meet UWE's though, but im a lil bit worried I wont get accomodation preference seeing as its not my first choice

    Depends what you want

    Student village has en suite

    Carroll court has a small outdoor space at back and is about 12000 cheaper

    So if you can justify paying 12000 more just to have your own shower and not 2 shared ones like at Carroll court go for her SV but I have gone CC for my first choice
