    ABOUT ME:
    I'm Dylan (21), an Economics and Finance Graduate from the University of York (with a year studying abroad in Australia at USYD). After discovering Investment banking and Economics wasn't my desired career while studying at university, I decided to audition to do a MA (Masters) in Professional Acting at top drama schools across the UK, eventually landing a spot at ALRA - Where I am training for the next 15months... Despite the career change Economics and University life was the most valuable experience I've ever had. My 2 biggest hobbies Travelling and Investing in the Stock Market arose out of it along with many other great things. Subscribe for Productivity, Efficiency, Acting, and Lifestyle Vlogs!!

    Edinburgh is very underrated by most people imo. It's a top uni especially internationally, has a decent nightlife (Glasgow is also a 30-40 min train away) and there's so much to do in the city. It even has a decent beach which is a 15 min cycle on a boris bike from the centre. There's also a really good mix of English, Scottish and international students and lots more Europeans, Americans etc than most UK unis.

      i went there on holiday and came back a few days ago. the night view is incredible, you could keep walk around for miles and still be surprised. the thing is, tons of edinburgh uni students are on the streets of the city asking around for cigs and stumbling around drunk. i think i was asked about 5 times. you were just surrounded by them and it felt kinda uncomfortable. however, i dont know much about the actual education in the uni. there's not many international students. 95 percent of the time it was just scottish students. but yes the beach is near and it is all really beautiful for going out.

Obviously, kind of excluding coronavirus because that just drastically impacted everyone’s experience. At university level, it may not always feel like academics “care” so much because of the volume of students, and nature of teaching. University involves being an independent learner. But there should always be people at hand for advice and support. For me lecturers are talented, passionate and make things easy to interpret, although I ask further questions when needed, it’s more so my tutors/support staff that help on a personal level, and that’s the norm.

      The emphasis British students put on university prestige and ranking is embarrassing. We live in such a sad country when you think about it - and barely any students call it out, which makes that even sadder; this kind of elitism that permeates our system only makes the mental health crisis stronger, but also creates rampant inequality and lack of oppurtunities for students who don't make it to Oxbridge. In Canada, New Zealand, Australia, China, Japan, and all of Europe outside of the UK, students don't have to worry about their futures based on what university they get into on higher education high school/secondary school results day 😭

    I went to Birmingham and it was good. Student life is easy there. Campus is nice, average rent is fairly cheap, transport is good, lots of nice places to go nearby the student areas, lots of places to eat well, and plenty of housing that's really close to campus (which saves you a LOT of time and money because it's so walkable). I'm going to York for my PhD and my first impressions were that transport was good and the city seems nice. I think the campus is uglier than Birmingham's, but I'll spend most of my time inside the buildings not staring at them, and the insides seemed cushy 😸 hopefully it'll be a nice time!
    Edit: after a few months living in York, I can't honestly say I'd recommend it. Pros: safe, reasonably walkable, nice restaurants and cafes, peace and quiet, campus has sweet, beautiful wildlife. Cons: EXPENSIVE AS HELL! I'm paying £30 more per week in rent than I was in Birmingham, more than that actually because bills aren't included. What I'm paying seems to be pretty standard. Rent alone costs nearly half my stipend. I can't imagine how the undergraduates are managing. Lack of superstores: want a decent and affordable range of food? Too bad, the nearest big Sainsbury's is a mile away, depending where you live the Aldi is half an hour away which is not something you want with heavy groceries. The closest supermarket is a Waitrose, because of course it is. Not the greatest range of food on campus. The drivers are genuinely terrible here, I was honestly shocked, especially since I thought Birmingham would be worse. I was wrong. I don't understand because the roads themselves are okay here. People are just extremely impatient and sloppy. City centre on weekends, no, the amount of people makes me feel a bit ill. And last but not least, some old woman decided to call me a bitch because...she didn't like my facial expression???? Never met such rude, horrible people in my life.

    I went to KCL and sometimes I got cross lectures in UCL (basically i got admitted into UCL as well but I switched to KCL due to some reasons). UCL is a great place and unique. For the sake of the friendlinest people, I prefer UCL but KCL is wow. I find KCL is more grande and based on my experience I had balance life as well. My campus society used to throw drink event every thursday night and sometimes followed by boat parties and formal parties. School used to give me a notif for formal party outside which was held by some law firms to mingle students. My time at KCL was fine but the student societies didnt impress me much but from KCL Mooting Society I got a best friend. I just hate the examination systems which held outside school. We need to sit exams at a hall which I think wasting of money.

      Some thoughts in reply to your comment; I've been planning what I'm doing in Freshers week as someone who doesn't drink and there are some events where it's alcohol free or there are mocktails etc. This is for Lancaster Uni however. So I think unis / student unions who plan freshers events are more aware nowadays that not everyone drinks so they'll probably be offering some events. However peer pressure is another thing but it's really no one's business what you can't put in your body for your own health so disregard and keep a safe distance from those who give you shit for it. Besides, who can tell the difference between a lemonade and vodka lemonade? Finally, I think it might differ between unis. A big uni in a big city (think Birmingham, London unis, Manchester) is going to have a lot more clubs etc than a smaller uni in a rural or smaller city, (eg: Lancaster, Aberystwyth). So drinking culture differs between unis.

UCL is the reason that LONDON will always be my favourite City in the World. Even the location is bomb! Like literally Oxford Street (if you’re like me and love fashion) is on your doorstep. When I was at UCL it was the 4th best Uni in the World and every London nightclub is literally spitting distance away if you’re into that.

    Dylan’s reasons for ranking Russell group unis:
    Pros : “A lot of girls that my mates fancy on tinder go to this uni”
    Cons : “Not a fan of the logo”
