Hey, which campus will you be attending? I can only speak for the Paisley campus. The students union is very cheap, but never lively imo. If you want night outs, you are best going to Glasgow, short bus trip.

Paisley is a decent enough place, mostly residential.

Hamilton! Is the town itself any good, or is Hamilton even a town? I really haven't a notion about the place, I may just visit the place the Summer

I have been accepted for Photography, it's running at City of Glasgow college, the course is through UWS.
Any body else going to be on this course? :smile:

Hamilton is lovely, my mum stays just outside in Larkhall (not so lovely haha). Good wee shopping centre and loads of places to get food and drink. Great connections into Glasgow - trains and buses run every half hour or so.

Just as a bit of information there is a facebook group that has been set up by some science students so that prospective students can ask questions related to studying a science-based degree at UWS.

I have a conditional for the course! Same if I'm honest, but the uni itself makes up for it being Ayr for me. Are you staying in halls?

Whats a national insurance number? and do they want a UK number or my greek one?

Hi,

I applied for Computer Networking (Paisley), got conditional offer, but I passed all my exams and that was the requirement. So, anyone from Computer Networking here? :smile:

I'm not from Scotland, I've only been there a few times.
