I personally am not Cambridge's biggest fan. I am in second year and would not choose this university again. Think carefully before you apply.

It's nice for a day trip but not to live here for 3 years. If you like clubbing ... Read review

Eventually he settled on Manchester University and, whilst I didn't want to do the English degree there, I found that I did want to do the course offered at Manchester Metropolitan University, which was very nearby. I also thought the people there would be a bit more fun.

...I liked the idea of Manchester because it was close enough to where my parents lived if I ever wanted to go home and far enough away so I could gain some well needed independence and experience. I learned a great deal whilst I was studying (both in terms of education and life!) and met some fabulous people including my fiance, so it was obviously a good choice for me! Nearly all of my university friends have stayed in the city and have bought houses ... Read review
