To keep a long story short, I live less than half an hour from Liverpool and Manchester university, and could commute there from home, but I’ve been looking at Imperial, to experience city life, go to a better university, and step out of my comfort zone.
But I’ve heard that for Northerners it’s hard to adapt to life in London, and that life after the honeymoon period is depressing and lonely. I’ve been wondering is that true even for Uni Life? Anyone who’s a northerner who’s studying/has studied in London could they share their experience? (For context I’d probably be living off a £13k maintenance loan with my girlfriend/in halls if I need to and with whatever money I can scrape by through summer jobs/part time jobs)
