I live in Northamtpon, so not too far from DMU, I'll be living on campus wherever I go. Initially, and still now, NTU seemed like a really good Uni and the fact that a friend of mine is going to the University helps. I knew that I wouldn't apply to Unis really far away (3h+ from home) so that I can still visit on weekends and in the holidays etc.
If you got accepted last year, I see no reason why they would'nt accept you again this year. What University did you go to intially, and what course are/did you apply for?
