I’m (22F) wanting to meet new people in Sheffield. I’ve looked on meetup etc and can’t rlly find anything on there. I’m into lots of different things but I’m not a sporty person
So I’m (22) doing solo travel for the first time and I’m concerned about staying in a mixed dorm. My family think I’m insane for even considering it and are convinced that I’d be putting myself in a dangerous situation.
It’d be fairly easy to get back home if things felt dodgy, but the hostel wants a £100 deposit that I’d only get back at the end of my 2 month stay so I’d be losing money by leaving.
Weighing up whether to go or not. Not sure I’d feel safe but I really want to travel
I’ll be coming from Yorkshire. Do most Glasgow uni students come up with already established friend groups from sixth form? Would I stand out as a non-Scottish student?
Did Clive purposely murder Leo? I know he definitely intended to hurt him and showed little remorse, but did he know that the other guy had attached the rope to the car? Would Leo have survived had he just dropped to the ground after they released it?
I’ve applied to eight hostels so far (mostly Edinburgh, some in London) and all the applications have expired with no reply. It’s my first time doing this. I’m flexible with dates but can only do one month. All of them state that 10-20+ applicants have recently applied, but I can’t find any that don’t say that. Any help appreciated
I’m (22F) can’t afford anything too expensive. Ideally looking for affordable, social accommodation. Would I be placed with people more my age or 17/18yos if I went into halls?
I like indie music (Blur, Gorillaz, Fountaines dc etc), classic rock and occasionally pop. Not into heavy metal, DnB or techno
Heard Sheffield isn’t that great for nightlife anymore, but hoping that isn’t the case
I looked at Leeds and found the city to have a very lively atmosphere, but I’ve heard it’s more upper-middle class than Sheffield and so feel I wouldn’t fit in. I’m from South Yorkshire and love Sheffield’s vibe but unsure how exciting student life will be there, especially now Leadmill’s closed
Course offered at both is very similar. Like both cities. Just worried about fitting in as I heard about a couple of people dropping out of Leeds as they found the upper-middle class demographic too isolating. Heard Sheffield has a more balanced, inclusive crowd, but no idea if that’s true. I know most of the students will still be lovely people, but I don’t want to feel too out of place
Going as what’s technically a mature student (22F). I’m from a working class background and when I looked around the student areas (hyde park) I noticed a lot of very upper-middle class accents. Sure they’re lovely people, but I think I would feel out of place. Does Lupton have a different sort of crowd with it being the cheapest accommodation?
Planning on moving there soon. Working class, female, early 20s
I’ll (22F) be going to Uni of Leeds as what’s technically a mature student. I like clubs but feel more drawn to bars now. I like the look of fight club, the domino club, pixel bar, and wax bar. Are these all popular student spots?
I’m (22F) also technically a mature student, and from Yorkshire so wouldn’t know anyone when starting at the university. Would this make it difficult to make friends etc?
It’s for a hostel job in Edinburgh. I (22F) was rejected last year. Think my answers were too long. Should this response just be a few sentences or?
I love sociology but don’t have a degree in it. I’ve looked at social research roles in think tanks etc and it sounds ideal but I’m worried I lack the right qualifications
