•
World 100 University
•
Top 5 in the UK (according to the Top UK University Guide)
•
Collegiate system for a nice community feel
•
Durham is favoured in terms of future employability
•
Russell group Uni and known for being very prestigious
•
Beautiful campus, river, etc. (I got into the Castle, too, so that's a bonus)
•
Cute little town and convenient in terms of necessities
•
Really nice Music and Drama, which is a must for me
•
It's far away so I can finally escape home (I live in Hertfordshire)
•
There isn't much to do in Durham, I'm worried I'd get bored after being there for three years
•
I'm honestly worried about meeting my offer. Although I've been predicted A*A*A (A in Japanese) and I need a grade lower than those to get in, Japanese A2 is basically designed for native speakers and the A Level is harder than the first year of degree (according to my teacher). Whereas I can afford to put in 10 or so hours of work a day if I were studying it at Uni, obviously I can't do that at A Level and Japanese is a subject that really does require that.
•
No. 1 institution for Asian languages
•
Unconditional offer which takes off huge amounts of pressure this year
•
Recognised for being very elite and producing loads of heads of state, ambassadors, etc.
•
Has nearly 50% international students and I love the idea of meeting people from such a range of cultures
•
All the world's leading academics for my subject would teach there
•
They're arguably the most left-wing University - I feel like I'd get on with the students there far better for that reason as I'm very liberal (Durham is apparently the opposite - but don't quote me on that. Also, I know these are just generalisations)
•
Year abroad at SOAS has loads more choice in terms of Japanese universities compared to Durham
•
If I'm looking at postgrad Music then London is the place to be when it comes to making contacts
•
There is everything and more in London
•
Massive students union where I'll meet loads of people with the same interests as me and plenty opportunities for Music and Drama
•
My parents flat-out refuse to let me live in London due to it being expensive and 'not worth the debt' and will make me commute. Trying to convince them otherwise is proving to be very, very difficult.
•
I absolutely refuse to commute.
