May I ask how’s the Homerton College is like in Cambridge University (the lifestyle, friendliness, activities)? Is it difficult to get in if I’m applying for an Education degree for this College?

hi! i'm also looking at the education degree! feel free to pm if you have any more queries :smile:

it is where most education applicants apply to and where most education students are since it's right opposite the education faculty which is useful for lectures and supervisions, but it is around 10 minutes south of the city centre which means socialising with other colleges can become difficult since you'd need to travel in and out. the college is nearer to shops and other facilities plus mill road isn't too far as well.

homerton is also one of the larger colleges in terms of size. it's also one of the friendliest according to some poll, i can't remember the exact details but yeah.

as for difficulty, i don't know if there's much difference between colleges. there isn't meant to be, at least. other colleges will probably have like up to 5 education students whereas at homerton there's a good couple dozen - you can see the exact details on the cambridge admissions statistics website
