I am working on my UCAS application, planning to apply for a BA in Politics and International Relations. Is anyone studying there currently or studied there that could tell me how it is? Is it a good uni?
Thank you

I'm a current politics student (first year) and the course, on the whole, is really interesting

Have you/are you going to visit Leicester? When applying to any university you need to work out what you want from university and surrounding area beyond academics. Everyone's different. Personally I wasn't all that keen on Leicester but that's because I don't think it was a good fit for me. Plenty of other people seemed to like it fine but I would have preferred to be elsewhere.

Oh that is good to know! What kind of resources do you have to have such as books and do you spend a lot on them? -

Very good University.
I can't afford to go on n open day because the train tickets cost me like 90 quid to go down to Leicester.
How is Leicester area wise? I am quite worried because I heard from some people that it's a "shtihole"? -

Could you please explain why it's very good?

All I know is University of Leicester (according to league tables and reviews) is a very good University, currently a top 30 University in the UK.
I have also heard Leicester is a **** hole, but I wouldn't let that impact you choosing your University. It has a good night life, if that's your thing, and very safe areas. There's also a lot to do in it, it's a large city.Last edited by JQLeitch; 14-02-2016 at 23:51. -

Purely anecdotal, that could happen to anyone. The graduate prospects at Leicester in general are great.
