I'm studying at Leeds in September and this was so helpful, thank you so much for sharing!! I'm in the process of applying for accommodation and I was just wondering how you found it being slightly further away from campus! Like do you think it affected your experience in anyway!?
Hey Hollie! Congrats on being accepted to Leeds! No, being slightly further out from campus didn’t impact my experience at all! Some of the most ‘fun’ halls tend to be off campus (Devonshire, James Baillie). There are a couple accommodations that are considerably further out though and not as well situated (Lupton, Liberty dock) and then again you’ve got your on campus ones that tend to be more expensive. But again really depends on preference and what you value more (social side, on campus, own bathroom, price etc). Hope that helped! If you have any other questions let me know either on here or on insta x
This was so helpful, thank you for such great video! I'm thinking of studying at Leeds next year and wanted ask your advice with regards to how 'introvert' friendly the university is ? I don't really like clubbing / drinking and worry that will mean I struggle to make friends/meet people? are there other things to do during freshers for people who prefer more relaxed scenes like cinema nights/day events? would really appreciate your advice as im so scared about making friends as international student so far from home!
There are 27,000 universities in the world. This year Leeds University is ranked at 86 the QS international tables which brings it within the top one third of one percent of world universities.. It is of course a Russell group university. The top 100 employers in the UK (ie The High Flyers' report which is viewable online) ) publish an annual ranking of the 20 universities whose graduates they favour most. In the real world this counts for quite a lot more than the often baffling and sometimes downright bizarre national rankings that appear in publications like the Times and the Guardian (Lancaster and Loughborough universities were consistently placed as top ten universities in the Times national rankings???!!! You have got to be kidding!!!). For 2022 the High Flyers' list places Leeds at number 5. Cambridge is ranked at number 7 and Oxford is ranked at number 10. Leeds is the wealthiest city in the north of England with upmarket shops, restaurants and cafes. The university has an embracing and safe feeling campus 10 minutes walk from the thriving city centre. On and around the campus there is some lovely architecture and a buzzing social scene. Of the UK's 120 universities Leeds falls consistently within the top three for the number of applicants. With an impressive international standing for the quality of its research and a first rate social scene Leeds will always be a serious choice for a great many academically gifted undergraduates and postgraduates.
