Commuters - how long does it take you to get to uni?

Basically how long does it take you to get to uni, if you live at home or aren't in halls etc.

Or if you're considering commuting, how long would you be willing to travel? :smile:

40 mins bus, starting 1st year in October.

On a really good day it can take 45mins for me. Generally it's around 1hr-1hr 30 mins. I take a train and then a bus, the bus is always the problem for me - it comes late most of the time and is packed with school kids.
10 walking minutes to bus stop. 20 minutes on bus. 10 walking minutes to uni.

1 and 1/4 hours if I save money and stay on the bus, maybe 1 hour if I get off and get the subway. Wish I could move out :biggrin:
I live at home and it takes me only 5 minutes :smile:
When I start at Leeds in September I will be commuting from Doncaster.
Bus - 10 mins
Train - 40 mins
Bus - 10 mins

So an hour in total plus waiting times etc.

Fun, can't wait...

About an hour/hour and a half. Bus, Train, Tube.
If I am going by train it is half an hour/45 mins. If I am going by bus at least 2 hours.
About 20 mins on a bus.
90 Minutes.
I leave about an hour before I need to be at uni... in reality it takes about 40 mins, but that's just to allow for train being late/missed etc!

I drive to uni these days and it takes me 90 minutes. (Saying that, I do actually have a flat in my uni city but I don't stay there anymore).
