psychology UEA or Liverpool?
I made me firm and insurance choice, UEA being my firm and Lincoln being my insurance. It has been passed the 14 day period, but UCAS told me you can still swap unis but you will need the universities permission. I am still leaning towards UEA but I also like Liverpool but it's a 4 hours away as opposed to UEA that's just over an hour - both are for psychology. Pls someone help lolll

Hi there,
It’s great that you’re putting so much thought into your decision—it’s a big one, so feeling torn is completely normal!
Since UEA is your firm choice, you’ve already recognised it as a strong option, and for good reason. The Psychology course at UEA is well-regarded, and being only an hour away means it’s easier to stay connected with home while still getting that sense of independence. Norwich also offers a fantastic balance of city life and green spaces, with plenty of student-friendly activities. UEA has excellent support services and a close-knit community, which can make the transition to university life much smoother.
If you’re still uncertain, it might help to weigh the practicalities, like accommodation costs, travel expenses, and the vibe you got from both universities when you visited. You could also reach out to current students at both UEA and Liverpool to get a sense of their experiences, especially in terms of studying Psychology.
Ultimately, trust your gut. You’ve already done the hard part of getting offers from amazing universities, so whichever choice you make, you’ll do great! If you’re still thinking of making a switch, contact both universities soon to discuss your options—just be mindful of the deadlines and logistics. Good luck! 😊
Best,
Daniel
