Default The University thread
Thought it'd be good to have a thread discussing our university lives

What and where will you be studying later this month?

I'm not actually sure yet, something Media related probably.

I applied for Media Communications this year but rejected all offers because I felt like I didn't have enough time to really think about my options.

What about you?

I'm applying for Environmental Geography, super nervous though after failing my first year and having to change my college course.

You'll be absolutely fine, just give as much dedication and time to your education as you can.

Run out?

How long do they last?

I didn't go through that hell for them to run out!

Sounds like the perfect Uni for you

Seriously, one of my friends got in without any A levels. Admittedly quite a good portfolio of music tho.

GCSE's 'run out' after 5 years I think, and I think A-Levels do too

I'm finishing my A2 exams this year but going to take a year out and apply to Uni next year instead. After finding out that the government loans I'll receive don't even cover a years accommodation, let alone food/books etc, I thought it might be a good idea to save up some money beforehand.

Been counting down the days the entire summer...

Out of the three years we're at uni, literally a year of it we have off. Madness.

Going to miss it big time after this year.

It's going to be the same for me, I had 5 months off this summer and will have next summer! Next year I must do something worthwhile rather than just work 2 days a week and do nothing else.

First half of the second was tough, second half a breeze. Third years said it gets much better with all the control we have in the final year. Already pre-planned the lot, can't wait

Think it ultimately depends on the course.

Have a feeling first half of second year will be easy considering I'm only in two days a week
