Do you live at home while attending uni?

I will be commuting and I have heard so many bad things about it, but your post was great to give me confidence! Thank you! =D

there are good and bad about both, but you just have to try to focus on the positives. if you commute for a year or so and its really getting you down, you could always move out in your later years when everyones all partied out, youll just be getting started haha. as long as you make the effort with people and throw yourself out there youll be fine, itll be hard at first, it is for everyone, but you just have to stick it out, be yourself and take it as an opportunity to meet new people good luck!

Would you say that people who live at home really, very much significantly, miss out on the whole uni experience in your opinion?

I wouldn't say that I miss out on a lot actually, and definitely not anything that exciting, maybe you miss a couple of freshers events but you'd be surprised by how many people live at home and are in the same boat. I didn't think there would be any, but half my class lives out. It just seemed to me that the huge difference came at exam season where everyone lived in the library and I actually went home at night, which isnt a bad thing. It meant I got proper sleep, proper meals, and I actually did my work calmly.

Yeah I think you are right!! Thanks! I will make the best I can to be involved in as much as I can! Even though I am working at the same time because I am independent I really want to make the most of my experience at uni! Thank you very much again

I work too, but it can be alright to balance it all as long as youre organised if you need any help or need a chat feel free to message me. just remember everyone else feels the same way as you inside even if on the outside they look like they arent worried or nervous at all!
