Geography at Durham

I know that Durham has a good reputation for geography and gets over 1000 applicants for the BSc and BA courses each year et blah-de-blah, so i probably won't get in...but anyway, i was wondering if anyone on here studies/is going to be studying, geography at Durham specifically because i'm really interested in the course and i'd like to find out what it's like from a students' point of view. I've heard that the facilities are first class. :smile:

Oh yeah, my other 'problem' is distance from home - i don't know if i could cope with a 8 hour journey every time i wanted to go home!

durham's geo dep is supposed to be one of the best in Europe . I intend to go there next year and I live even further away than you and think of poor old SweetSugar who comes all the way from Australia!

Yes an 8 hour journey is nothing! I'll be going there in October so if you're still around then I'll let you know what its like :smile:

Don't be discouraged from applying there just because there are so many applicants, I thought there'd be no way I'd be accepted but put it now just in case and here I am with an offer!
