Hello,
My name is Haya and I am a final year medical student at UCLan.
Since I have been on campus, I discovered quite a few things.
For most courses, Wednesday afternoon is off for most students to try to get involed in soceities and sports. I find that quite nice because you sort of have protected time, which was new for me because I didn't have that in school.
Before starting uni, I thought that university attire will be more formal, but it is actually quite casual with hoodies and sweatpants as the the main outfits. From watching movies set in UK universities, I thought we would have to wear jumpers and shirts a lot of the time.
There are cafe's everywhere on campus, and they are always filled with people, which is a great opportunity for socialising.
Hope you found this helpful,
Haya - MBBS 5
