Advantages: Great people, a good education

Disadvantages: Leaving :(

I think one of the best advantages of being at the Manchester University is that it has now been joined with Umist (University of Manchester institute of Science and Technology) which not only makes it the biggest University in Europe, it also means that there is a wider variety of subjects in which the University has to offer.

Place:
Manchester is a great place to live and it is a city which is constantly improving and becoming a better place. The university is very close to the city centre which makes transport very easy

Nightlife:
Oxford road has a lot of great pubs and clubs at great student prices. But the main student area is Fallow field; most places require a student card for entrance and have a great atmosphere. If you are willing to spend more money than the city centre pubs and clubs prove to be a fantastic night

University:
Offers a huge range of subjects and is constantly developing and becoming a better place to study, with many new buildings and IT facilities

Shopping:
For food shopping there are many Tesco express shops, and a huge Sainsbury in fallow field, and an asda close to the umist campus:
For everything else there is the Arndale centre in the city centre and the Trafford centre a bus away

Accommodation:
There are three main areas in which Manchester students live
Fallow field --> the loudest area to live, many student's halls and houses, close to student bars and pubs
Victoria Park --> Probably the quietest area to live, close to fallow field and the city centre. Many catered halls here. A 10min walk away from the university
Umist campus --> close to the umist campus, most being less than a 5minute walk. Great for people who like to roll out of bed and straight into lectures

Societies/clubs:
Being such a huge university there is a society for everything
And if you do manage to find something that isn't included, you can start it up

Summary: The place to be
