Depends what you mean by that.
The college bar is decent, although the management has changed for this year and it might be a real ale bar rather than cocktail bar. The bar staff are really nice though (I should know, spent every night in there since just after Christmas)

The geese can be annoying, but you will get an email out when they get really aggressive telling you to stay out of their way and that won't be until after Easter

The best club closed at not back, but your STYCs should give you a good time during fresher's, but remember, just because something seems good then doesn't mean it is.

Just make sure to try to find summer decent friends during fresher's week, and it always helps to get on with your housemates. The college staff are really nice and don't waste fresher's fair, at least get on the mailing list of anything you might be interested in and try it out.

Of course, those last two things were just general pointers that you will be told anyway, but there us plenty to do

EDIT: oh, and Oki's is good for the walk home/wait for the taxi

They aren't too bad, particularly if you give then a wide berth, especially when with their young after Easter, even if it means getting off the path

Hey I'm Nick. I'll be starting my BA in Politics and will be in Lindley in the Halifax college. I'll be going to as many freshers as I can so will hopefully get the chance to speak to a lot of you there. Congrats to everyone else that has made it to York. Let's make it a good en :smile:
