  It’s quite nice. Lecturers and tutors are great at teaching their subjects. However, some lecturers can be a bit old fashioned in their way of doing things and are very stuck in their own mindsets

  Accommodation
  
  I live in Falkirk. Rent is cheap, train station and retail park is close by. It’s a decent area. However, I only chose to live here because the landlord was nice enough to let me, a student, and my then unemployed boyfriend rent. I would personally love to live in Stirling as it’ll be even closer to uni plus they have a nicer area to walk around and explore

  It’s a popular street for students to stay on due to price and location. There’s a bus stop on either side of the street. Also twenty minutes from the train and bus station. Ten minutes from the centre of town were the night clubs are located. There’s a Tesco five minutes away. Planning to staying again next year.

  My tuition fees are paid for by the NHS as I’m a nursing student. I also received a once off grant from the university. I also get a small maintenance grant from back home (Ireland).
