Edinburghs got some decent clubs. Having lived here my whole life, its the kind of city you dont want to escape. Its beautiful, many work opportunities especially for students.

Financially the accomodation isnt worth it, the courses are free to Scottish students but for International students its terrible (this is the same for all Scottish Universities). Cost of living in Edinburgh can be high, but for the most part its okay.

Very supportive, if youre not feeling the best, have had certain bad circumstances arise they are very helpful in aiding you.

Over priced, bad quality, small. Its on the outskirts of Edinburgh and yet its cheaper to rent a flat closer to the middle.

The core lecturers of this course are good, although there is one or two I wish had been different on certain modules. The lectureres communicate well with students whenever they need it. The quality of teaching is also very good, and it is very easy to ask things if you dont understand.
