My Visit to MMU...

Well what a Uni,

Visited today and got there for 12 before speaking to some History staff. The course sounded very interesting.

From what I could see some of the University of Manchester buildings were right next door to MMU. We got a cab from the station but we walked it on the way back. We did not realise how walkable it was.

There were loads of Bars/Clubs right on the edge of the Campus as well as takeaways and food shops. We walked into the city centre that took about 5-10 minutes.

The place is buzzing. Oxford Road was just like a Student Only area. 24 Hour buses run from the city through there and it seemed really safe.

4 of the Halls of Residence are on the Campus : Briarfields, Oxford Court, Cambridge & Cavendish.

We had a look around Cambridge and it seemed really nice. All the students there were very helpful.

Would give the Uni a good 9/10 maybe 10/10 from what I saw. This is definately my first choice now.

No I was there to see the History Admissions Tutor as I couldnt make the open Day in March or the one in June. I was in the Geoffrey Manton Building then got a guided tour around the Halls.

Hello there. I too visited MMU's open day yesterday. I was going as part of the Combined Honours Programme to see the English & Politics courses. It was my first time in Manchester, and I absolutely loved it. All in all, I was very impressed with the university.
