Hi ! I'm currently working on my application for the MPhil in Politics and International Studies, and I'm still not sure on my college preferences. I heard great things about Newnham, and I find it absolutely beautiful, but I'm a little worried about the fact that it's all-women and if I would come to regret not going to a mixte college... What do you think about this ? How is the ambiance ?

I'm also an international student, so do you know if there's a big international community in Newnham ? How are the societies ?

How is the accommodation, do you like it ? Do you also think that it would be a good choice of a college for someone doing politics/IR ?

Sorry for all these questions, and thank you :smile:

I had my interview yesterday. My Internet kept dropping for the 1st 5minutes after that it was OK. I composed myself and did my best. Was able to answer the questions. A few errors I felt. Do you think the Internet problem might give me a low score .
