The UEA Question Thread

Scroll to see replies

So I'm thinking of going to UEA next September and am a keen road cyclist. Is there a road cycling club or team at the university?

Thanks

There is a road and mtb sports club, here is their Facebook page. It costs £10 to join. Stick a post on their to find out more!
the postroom dont bother checking to see if we're still in accommodation do they?
thinking of sending my parcel there as I know I won't be in to sign for it, and I don't think my housemate will be either.

I don't think so. I did the same thing a couple of times at the start of second year and it was fine.

However, the other day I saw in one of the pigeon holes in the med building a small parcel for someone that had "no longer in uni accommodation" written on it.

As long as you pick it up straight away then I imagine it will be fine. Either that or you leave a note at your house for the delivery man saying "leave with house number X" or "leave down the side of the house" or something :dontknow:

I guess if it gets to the pigeon holes they've had two weeks to try and contact/find that person to collect it so they'll notice they aren't in accommodation anymore. I'll just try it, it's the unis fault I'm not in during the day anyway!! :tongue:
Could anyone tell me the easiest way to get to Sainsbury's? :smile:

Sainsburys in the City Centre is located just beyond the turn into St. Stephen's Street (the street with Chapelfield) on the city ring road on the right hand side. If you're going by bus, the easiest way to get there is probably just to use the 25 buses and then walk over from the St. Stephens Street stop. Morrisons on the other end of the 25 bus route is a little closer to the bus stops if you're struggling with lots of bags. Hope that helps :smile:

Be aware though guys that the 25 services now only stop at Morrisons at certain times of the day. They've basically stopped going there at rush hour to try and improve bus reliability.

Thinking of applying to UEA in 2013, for English Literature!

Wondering if it is a good uni, as i saw that there was a slightly lower employment rate to sussex and others i have been looking at.

also, does anyone take English Lit at UEA, whats it like, from the website the modules look amazing. (:

If you get accepted to UEA, do they require an interview? I'm applying for business management if that helps :smile:

For most courses, UEA don't require an interview. They may well invite you to a Visit Day, during which they may allocate each applicant a member of staff to have a chat with. I understand this may sound like an interview (heck, I approached it as such!), but by then, you usually have your offer. It just aids the University in finding out what sort of person you are.

This is what happened in Chemistry... Not sure how they run things in the Norwich Business School.

Thank you :smile: does anyone knowing the Norwich business school is in the same campus as the main bit of UEA... Because I've heard some other unis have their business school in a completely different place to the main site

Hi!

I didn't realise UEA had a japanese course until very recently and so thinking of applying there now as I really like Norwich.

As it's a pretty new course I can't find much about it on forums etc..

I was just wondering how any of you were finding it so far?
First impressions etc?

Thanks :smile:

NBS is located on campus (in one of the snazzier new buildings no less). It's a little bit further away from the main parts of campus than some of the other schools, but we're talking about 3-4 minutes here. :tongue:
Going on Saturday, looking to study business
