    Default University

    On Saturday i will move into my dorm at Stirling University and begin studying Biology on the Thursday after that.

    Im rather nervous about the whole affair yet excited at the same time.

    Anyone else going to Uni this year, if so where and are you living at home or away from home?

    It's gonna be a little while before I start on any university.

    I've always wondered: What's the difference between college and university?

    I'm starting Uni this year at Swansea to do English and History. Like you i'm really looking forward to it but terrified at the same time!

    I'm going to Westminster's Harrow Campus (Zone 5/6 Northwest London), and I'm currently doing it from home, but I'm hoping to find some people to bunk up with closer to the actual uni since it'll take me about an hour to get there everyday.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I leave in my parents house but i have to wake up at 6 a.m to be at college at 8 a.m.

    If you stay in the dorms you won“t study much and most likely you will be going out almost every night...which is fine by me.

    Fresher's week for me starts on the 25th of this month. I will be reading International Relations & Politics as a joint honors course.

    I am going to De Montfort University, so I am staying at home.

    Yeah, but on the other hand, they're giving me a £500 scholarship per year, on top of the bursary. Plus, DMU is shiny. I'm not kidding when I say that influenced my decision. =P

    P.S. the culmination of many month's work was truly worth the effort.

    things I learned in university:

    - study your ass off. Your grades are the most important thing.
    - there are lots of clubs. You can make lots of friends. Make sure it's co-ed cuz...sausage fest
    - party
    - drink
    - girls
    - yay!

    I live across the street from my university. I graduated though so I plan on moving when my lease is up.
