bristol student life

do all people at bristol go parting all the time?
i’m more quiet and reserved but still love to go out, just not every night. are there people who have a good social life balance?
or have i got the wrong impression? don’t know if i’d get lost with everyone as it’s a city uni.
any accommodation anyone recommends for me. i’m not interesting in specifically asking for a quiet one.
deciding whether to firm for biomed.

I think there's definitely a good mix of people and events. You absolutely don't have to go out every night and societies tend to offer quieter events as well. It's a great city with a big range of things to do. Defo recommend!

No. I study at Bristol Uni and I don't party. As far as I know most of my mates in Data Science and Econ don't party either (or rarely).

I've firmed bristol and I'm an extremely quiet and reserved person and I'm sure there are many others, but you just don't hear about them (for obvious reasons lmao). I've heard that Stokes Croft is considered the more party centered area for students and that the Clifton area tends to have less so probably go for accommodation around there or just avoid Stokes Croft if you're not into party culture as much.
