Awesome, great mix between parties and just chilling, plus perfect positioning for nights out!

Lol. I love how people are 'bigging up' their universities by saying "Come to ___. It's okay.

Anyway, UCL -prestige, social life, great teaching!

UCL's alright. Can't be beat for location (everywhere that's worth going to in London is within walking distance) and the main Quad is a pretty nice looking building (just a shame Tottenham Court Road across the road is such a dump).


Tottenham Court Road is nice! :tongue: All the instrument shops are there. I sort of know what you mean, though. UCL looks so regal, but is surrounded by grey, drab buildings. At least Bloomsbury is a good area. (posh - so you won't get knifed for looking at someone the 'wrong way')

Glasgow - Fantastic uni, great people, 2 unions (meaning awesome freshers week), beautiful building (looks like hogwarts), subway IN one of the unions :drool:, amazing shops (SO MANY!!!), nightlife is awesome beyond all belief, cheap drinks (85p for vodka mix in some places!), men in kilts :sogood:, plus just a really happy amazingly wonderful place!

can you tell i love it?!


Glasgow is awesome.

My course is brilliant (History, Politics, Philosophy), the people are awesome, the nightlife is INSANE.

I go out 3 times a week and every time is absolutely insane!

Loving it here!

Aren't Cambridge's colleges bound to have just as good a community spirit?
And the way you say it seems to imply that a college system is necessary for a good community spirit. Yet rarely does anyone ever have a bad word to say about Glasgow, for one, which doesn't have a college system. And there are some less ancient universities that have 'college' systems that are just halls of residences with unrelated teaching rooms in them - their sense of 'community' is less meaningful than elsewhere.

Look out for the seaguls mate, there's a large chip on your shoulder.
In the lovely words of my dearest brother, "The fact that even you've managed to make friends there says a lot about the social life..."

I.e., come to UEA. You'll have fun. It's a bit concrete-chic, but it's friendly and the rabbits are pretty cute.

GLASGOW!
1. It's a beautiful campus that looks especially wonderful in the snow.
2. Great courses with amazing lecturers (aka. David Newell for all those considering Lit)
3. A wonderfully friendly city with shopping and night-life to suit everyone.
4. Ceilidhs :smile:

Seriously, what are you doing applying to anywhere else?
