    You can get a really brief glimpse of inside Student Village on one of the videos: http://www.glyndwr.ac.uk/videolightb...ampus-tour.flv

    Are you going to the open day on May 26? I am so might be able to give you some more info once I've been, but still a student's perspective would be interesting, you're right!

    Hello! Tell me please, is it easy to live on 10 pounds a day in Glyndwr University (in dormitory, Standard accommodation). Our student team from Ukraine have a chance to study here and £10 is all we have. And what your living expenses in Wrexham? Thanks!

    If you mean £10 a day is what you have after paying the accommodation fee, then I'd say £70 a week is pretty okay to live on. If all you have is £70 a week total including paying out accommodation fees then you're going to struggle since Glyndwr's accommodation ranges from around £60 a week to £101 a week, so at best you'd be left with £10 a week to buy food, books, toiletries etc which is not really enough.

    I would email the accommodation folk at Glyndwr as you'll want to discuss the accommodation payments as well, since they take 40% of the total year's fee in October, and that might be difficult depending on when and how much you're paid at once.

    Thanks a lot! Accommodation fees will be paid for the whole year and I meant £10 a day. If I ever go to Glyndwr University. I hope I will pass the selection!
