It’s a very big city, has traffic queues at morning & evening rush hour. People are nice, northern sensible. Uni is great. Find accom near to the university, or Headingley area, where many students live ok
It’s a fab campus, great SU and buzzing northern city. Lots of reasonably priced student accommodation after you move out of university halls or flats.
Suggest that you should simulate a walk to campus, using maps.google.co.uk and see what you think, that end of Meanwood road used to be a bit industrial, I know ‘nowt about iQ. But location isn’t half-bad, check that.
