Hey. I'm an international student and I've gotten an offer from these 3 places for an economics and math course. Right now I'm giving preference to Bristol, but I'm still not sure which one I should go for because St Andrews is ranked much higher and Edinburgh is equally prestigious. Any suggestions?
Edinburgh because then we will be class mates in both classes!!!!
If thats not enough motivation... St Andrews= if you like living in a small cold place which is prestigous but not a lot happens in. Bristol=If you want to live in England, like yahs. Edinburgh=because you'll love it!!!
To be honest... All are prestigous. By reputation, between them, there is so little difference that it should mean nothing to your decision. All are in lovely, pretty, historic locations. But I must say...Edinburgh and St Andrews's courses are a lot more flexible because they are scottish so if you wanted to take another foreign language/ finance modules/accounting on the side...you can!!!
Pleaseeeeeeee come to Edinburgh! Have you visited all threee?
Haha wow. You seem to like Edinburgh a lot. And you're right, Scottish universities have a more flexible course... but then the study duration extends to 4 years. And no, I haven't gotten a chance to visit them, and I don't think I will before I confirm my decision .
Though thanks a lot for filling me in on their reps, and if they really do make no difference, I think I'll stick to Bristol. But I'll visit Edinburgh for sure!
Bristol totally. Apart from the fact its totally awesome the best thing about it is that its not in scotland which means your not in the middle of nowhere.
plus bristols a great place love the city alot to do
Scotland is not in the middle of nowhere. And I don't think we'll be class mates because we have entirely different courses... and have you even been to Bristol? :/

OP's an international student. If there are flights to Edinburgh then it's as accessible as a lot of places and I doubt it would make a very big difference financially. For St Andrews, however, you would have to tag on extra travel after the airport.
OP, have you looked at the places on Google maps? It might not be of any use, but it could give you a better feel for the size and stuff.
there are more highly rated unis than edinburgh ( though edinburgh is still very well regarded)
I believe that bristol maths is the best, as it has world class lectures, plus since you are an international student, i presume you would like more of a city atmoshpere?
well if so, bristol is excellent for that though if not st andrew would be perfect
I've put St Andrews firm, Bristol insurance for Maths, and didn't apply to Edinburgh. I guess you should be able to figure out my opinion on that basis. I don't have a bad thing to say about either of the two that I applied to, and I know some exceptionally able applicants going to Edinburgh, who think very highly of it there. You really can't lose.
