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.
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"?

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.

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

We love Leicester. The uni is right next to a lovely residential area called Clarendon Park, very much like The King's Road but decades ago. Very friendly people and lots of little terraced houses with twinkly lights at Christmas.The uni seems very good too although my son ended up elsewhere.Hope this helps
