    You don’t have to choose one thing at every uni in UK anymore - I studied Liberal Arts at Notts and studied loads of subjects and topics (you can choose whether or not you want to major in a subject !) great for those who are creative but also don’t wanna ditch all the subjects you are interested in. I had the best time ! ❤

    I’m starting my course at mmu tomorrow and I’m commuting from home rather than living at uni, I’ve been quite anxious about making friends but this video has definitely made me feel more confident :)

      uni is a great transition into adulthood as you still get more freedom but there are systems in place to help you if you need it! it is definitely scary, but you’ll be surprised at how quickly you adapt :))

    i went to uni for one semester before dropping out and moving back home to do an apprenticeship, looking back I wish I had a more enjoyable uni experience but the city and environment where the uni was, was just ugh. I already know I dont want to do the job im doing at my apprenticeship but I also know i don't wanna go back to uni, lol

    Hii hoping to go to mmu but i was wondering what is the University like , is it comfortable to be around in study areas and lecture halls. Does the university in general look nice? Im so curious and its a big deciding factor for me. Unfortunately i cant go to an open day :) btw your videos have been really helpful thxx

    • @CocoDay
      @CocoDay  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      i didn’t do an open day either! depends which department you’re in, the art building and business building are gorgeous! i’m not sure about others tho
      they are developing the park on campus right now and it looks so pretty already :) it is a city campus tho so other businesses in the city are mixed in/next to our buildings and they aren’t always nice but overall i really like it and im also very affected by my environment!

    I’ve never heard of a bar only for hospitality workers (I live in the US, California) is Sherlock’s unique in any other way? I would assume cheaper but maybe more serve yourself or something? I’m just very curious

    • @CocoDay

    Please I am an international student who has never been to the UK before. I received 2nd year offer from both MMU & Sheffield Hallam for Engineering, I really gotta choose 1 uni from these so I can pay the deposit for either one of them, before start date at September. Do instructor’s support students? ? How are the facilities there like the library? Does the administration or whatever department that’s in charge of the students give any support to students? Overall what do you think of the uni?
