hey, so this is my first post but im feeling really lost in terms of uni right now so i thought id post here i guess.
basically, im nearing the end of my first year at uni of nottingham, currently studying english. last term, i decided i want to drop out. i hate my course (english lit), i dont really like most of my friends and i definitely dont like the people im meant to be living with next year. im really not a fan of the 'traditional' uni culture at notts... i guess i havent really found my people. my halls are full of people who seem to love sports, love clubs such as pryzm or nights like crisis (very poppy and society-orientated, i guess i prefer more alternative/hip-hop kinda nights). there's quite a big lad culture too which i guess comes from the sports and societies - none i've really enjoyed so far except the radio one. theres hardly any smaller gigs going on here either, which sucks for me. so yeah basically i hate it here and i hate my course, just for some irrelevant background info lol.
i've instead applied for english and film studies, and also journalism at sussex. i just wanted a summary of how sussex is in like a social aspect, night life, the kinda people that generally go there in comparsion to notts - and of course how good it is academically for the courses i've picked!
any advice would be appreciated, cheers in advance. just to clarify, i'm joining sussex as a first year again - not transferring to second.
(PS i've applied for manchester and leeds too, so any advice on how they also compare would be cool! but im mainly leaning towards sussex rn)
