Tips for freshers at Nottingham/UoN

•

Stay away from...

•

X is the best...

•

X sells out fast on freshers so buy tickets before you move in...

•

X event on freshers week is bad so wait it out/don't go

•

X is best for cheap...

•

Everyone should try/go to...

•

Don't bother...

•

Don't pay for a taxi if you go on a night out - the buses run through the night and are much cheaper.

•

Go to Wollaton Park (next to the Uni) - it's lovely.

•

Wait to buy tickets to freshers events when you're there, from the designated reps.

•

Don't feel you need to go to all or any of the freshers events. The finale party is bigged up as this massive thing, but it's expensive and lots of people buy tickets and decide not to go, so you can often pick up a cheap ticket the day before (but don't rely on this if you do want to go).

•

Get some sleep, don't wear yourself out. You'll probably have important introductory lectures to go to and you don't want to be falling asleep in them.
