Hi Resh19,
Firstly, congratulations on getting your offer and for accepting it to study HR at the University of Hertfordshire.
We are glad that you had a good experience at our Open Day and found the Staff and Students who were on hand helpful and friendly. The University has many great academic and social facilities for our students, whatever you like doing, there is something for everyone.
Hatfield town centre as you said has an ASDA and The Galleria is also very close to de Havilland. St Albans and Watford as well as London are very close by Bus and Train. These all have great social and shopping facilities which some of the students at the University often travel to.
I myself and a student at the University currently on a placement year. I am studying a Business and IT course and have found that the Business school (where you will be studying) has some great student support and facilities on hand to its students. I was nervous when starting at the University but settled in very quickly making lots of friends with my flat mates as well as other people on my course.
All I would say is don't worry, everyone is in the same boat either living with new people, being away from home for the first time and starting somewhere new. Everyone at UH is friendly and is here to support you.
We look forward to welcoming you to UH in September and if you have any questions please do ask. Also, please join us on our social media below and feel free to ask questions via these as well:
