Fun night life but not many shops to go around

Very expensive and the aldi is very far from the east campus. There is a Nisa which is way too expensive for students living by. My accommodation cost is expensive especially living with 12 people.

I like the accommodations however I dont like the people I am living with. If only they did the application where you match up people by hobbies and interests like Warick University does.

I like the timetable set for them, the module may need to think about not making them all presentations. The teacher is good.
