this video could not have come at a better time. i’m a year 12 student who wants to apply for psychology at manchester. i was wondering if at some point you may be able to make a video specifically about psychology at manchester? the lectures, the staff, modules, work experience etc etc it would be so so helpful!! (also i adored this video that you sm)
Yesss of course!! Thank you so much for watching :) xx
yes would love this!
@@aliceclaridge9708 I've made one! It's called the truth about doing a psychology degree xx
All you need to know about University of Manchester: czcams.com/video/biHGK5V8Uc8/video.html
I love how great and informative this video is! Ty for doing this and even talking about ur anxiety jus like that. It makes me more hopeful for next year at uni! Keep up the great work!!! 🥳🥳🥳
Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed xx
thank you so much for this video!! i’m hopefully going to the university of manchester in september to study politics & philosophy, and i’m really interested in joining the cheerleading society so super interesting that you spoke about it in this video :)) xx
Aww thanks so much for watching! I'm planning on making a video about cheer at uni and try out tips etc if that would interest you! xx
I might be doing the same course!
This video was so helpful! I’ve applied to do psychology at Manchester for this year and plan on doing cheer there too, thank you so much!! X
Good luck!!
Samee have you joined any recent group chats?
I just got a place at Manchester through clearing and I’m terrified having lost all my previous plans. Thanks for posting this.
You got this! Manchester was also not my first choice, I missed out on my firm (UCL) by one grade back in 2017 but I wouldn't have it any other way xx
Hi, I am planning on trying to get into Manchester through clearing for medicine, any tips on how you did it?
@Ethan Charles For my course UCL was ranked slightly higher, but I wanted to go there because I really wanted to study in London
this was so helpful!! thank you!!
Thanks so much for watching I'm glad it helped! xx
omg thank you so much! this really helped a lot xx
nandana sanker you’re welcome 🥰
Great video, so many recognizable things, even though I didn't go to the uni of Manchester.
Glad you enjoyed it!
man i miss uni so much ngl - nice video keep it up x
I already miss it and it's not even been a couple of months hahaha thank you for watching!! x
i'm starting at the university of Manchester in September doing nursing, this has really helped
Aw I’m so glad!
I'm thinking about going this year too for Japanese!
Hlo
Imma start but I’m a yr8 student
But I got top grades
Super informative 💕
Glad it was helpful!
This has been such a find! I’m considering switching from the university of Edinburgh to Manchester right now for music
I'm glad it was helpful!
hi! can u tell me more about university of edinburg?
I would love to see more videossss regarding UoM! 😍
Noted! What sort of videos would you like to see? xx
Shaira Berg how do you cope with first year of university such as exams or social life? How do you adapt urself in such environment 🙇🏼♀️ or even “Day in life as UoM student” 😜
Very informative video and very beautiful too 😍 hope there's still girls like you up in Manny
hi i will go to Manchester in January for foundation year of humility. Love your information about this university. It’s quite helpful!
Best of luck!
"Grimey Basement" this girl is cute man😅Deserves a sub
What’s the Covid situation like? Ive heard Manchester want to do permanent online learning and that lectures still aren’t in person :/ I’m thinking of applying to Manchester for next year x
Just wondering, when you joined cheerleading did you have previous experience? as id love to join it sounds so fun but i’ve never done it before. also were there many other beginners that started? x
I had absolutely no experience in dance or cheer or gymnastics! All I did was work really hard in the freshers sessions and had specific workouts/stretches I did to prepare for tryouts, if you want a video specifically about how to join cheer at uni I'd be happy to make one! There were a couple of other people that were beginners, but because it's quite competitive you do need to stand out to make the team especially at Manchester xx
Shaira Berg please do make that vid ❤️❤️❤️
The tower❤️😍
Everything the world needs 😌😌😌
Do you feel the main building at Manchester is underrated by prospective applicants? It has the feel of Oxford about it, just not on the same scale.
Do you know where medical students tend to live for accommodation? I like the social aspect of fallowfield but I feel like it would he way too loud when I need to study. I also think city accommodation is closer to facilities like the library etc but then doesn't have the same social aspect as fallowfield ☹
To be honest there were a lot of medical students in fallowfield, I think if you choose a slightly less 'full on' accommodation fallowfield could still be a good choice.
I’m so glad I found this vid as I’m thinking of accepting my offer at uni of manchester. Which halls would you recommend the most? As I’m not really a hardcore party person but do enjoy socializing.:))
Elizabete Sanda then I’d say definitely stay in fallowfield but go for accommodation like Unsworth Park or Richmond Park! Unsworth is brand new and is super modern so probably the nicest uni owned halls you could get xx
I’ve just finished my first year at UoM and I stayed at whitworth park, I struggled to make friends there as my flat were quiet and kept to themselves, most of them I struggled to understand as their English wasn’t great, I would not recommend this accommodation
Did you end up firming Manchester or somewhere else?
Just got in through clearing. Are there any that are to be avoided if you don't like constant noise like i want a sociable one but after having noisy neighbours at home for years id also quite like one where you can sleep without being disturbed
First congrats on your place! I promise you'll have an amazing time, if you don't want constant noise stay away from oak house and owens park! Richmond and shayven are very sociable and are also in fallowfield but a little more quiet so would recommend either of those!
Thank you I appreciate the advice do you know if Fallowfield is an area you have to be particularly wary of at times and if there's any dodgy surrounding areas
Uncommon question, but what's the parking like around the university area? I'm thinking of bringing my car with me if it's not too expensive to park
I got offers from Sheffield, Leeds and Manchester I don’t know what to chose especially that I’m an international student from Saudi Arabia. Some help please
I am considering either Manchester or Nottingham. Having a tough time deciding. Nottingham is a bit cheaper. I need my own space, maybe a studio. Hmm.
hiya, how do you know which ones are 'party accom'? I've got a place in richmond park but I'd prefer to have a more chilled out accom, would victoria park be a better choice or is it dead?
would happily swap for my victoria park room lol
Hey ..I really liked your video ..it was informative ..I wanted to ask how much time does univ of Manchester take in replying to the application, when do they give the letter ?
It usually takes a few months! Be patient they will definitely get back to you
@@ShairaBerg okay thank you 😊
Heyy i got an offer from uoM and leeds what should i go for i am so confused
hey i just wanted to ask that if the deadline is jan 15, and i applied on january 2. so when am i likely to receive my offer? which month?
I'm not sure but it should usually take a few months!
i’m into partying and stuff but i’m going to a private accommodation for first year called vita. i did this because i heard the student accommodation is super gross. if you know about this accommodation would you say it’s in a good location?
I know where vita is and it's deffo a good location, idk how social it is though but i'm sure you'll meet people!
@@ShairaBerg hi what’s the most social halls at Manchester in your opinion cheers
@@oscarfive982 any fallowfield halls really
Hii x what private accommodation do you recommend and do you think fallowfield is the best place ?
Hello, I don't know much about the private accommodation but I heard that Vita student is good (although this isn't in fallowfield) I think fallowfield is the best place socially as long as you are careful not to end up in the wrong crowds xx
Weird question, but are there many ethnic minority (black and brown) people at Manchester Uni, I was just wondering since I’ve been raised around these people and I usually feel anxious in situations where I am an outlier.
Furthermore, I have anxiety so I prefer not to be in an acom full of kids doing drugs, but I do like to be around decent people, so would Dalton-Ellis hall in Victoria Park be alright for me?
Me too I was wondering the same
So glad I found this - thanks for the great video! How did you set up the extra support for your anxiety? Xx
Jenny thank you for watching!! When you join uni you get assigned an academic advisor who is like a tutor to help you with any issues you have, when I started having panic attacks I let them know and then had a meeting with the DASS support officers who worked with me to make a custom support plan that suited me best! Honestly they’re really good with support with mental health/learning disabilities xx
Shaira Berg Thanks so much! Xx
Hey Ik this video is now a month old but oh well, you know with accommodation do you just get given one out of ur 5 choices and can u switch if u don’t like it ? X
Hey! Yeah you have the option to switch, there's a system where you can swap with someone who is wanting your accommodation choice xx
Shaira Berg ahh Thankyou so much x I hope I get my top three choices haha x
Hi! I will be an international student in uoM next Fall 2021 from Spain, what accommodations would you recommend for internacional students? Love your video!
Hi! Thanks so much for watching :) I'd recommend Fallowfield accomodation if you want a social accom otherwise the ones in the city centre are very convenient!
@@ShairaBerg didnt u say fallowfield is too loud
@@victoriaumukoro116 yep but if you want a social scene that’s where it is, obviously the more social = louder
There tends to be more international people in private (I guess because they have more money?) but anywhere is good tbh, but you get what you pay for.
what do you mean by party accom? when did you decide whether to go to party or not?
I mean like everyone there makes it a priority to go out as much as they can and theres a flat party all the time hahah xx
Do you feel as though if you werent allocated oak house (the party house) that you would of been able to find people more like you?
Jasmine Allison yeah if I’d been in different halls it may have been easier but then I never know! I’ve got friends who say that it was just as hard in other halls like Victoria Park, it’s just luck really xx
Shaira Berg what hauls would you recommend from the cheaper ones?
Great vid! Do you have thoughts on sheavyn house in fallowfield?
Sheavyn is one of the nicer fallowfield accommodations so I think it's pretty good because you're still in the loop of like fallow life but it isn't as grotty haha xx
Where is the rave scene in Manny ? Apart from like whp/ white hotel / hidden ?? I study at Manchester and thought it was all mainly cheesy , 80s and indie .
Mostly those three tbh, I feel like they’re the main places that people go at least where the people I’ve met mine to go
*tend to go
@@ShairaBerg ahhh I see, for me the people I meet always want to go 42s or yes ,but I want to go like hidden
@FlyingMonkies325 cheers mate good advice for new people, but I study in Manchester and grew up Birmingham
❤️
🥰
my gcses mainly 4s and 1 5 were bad but i think i will get A*A*A should i still apply here ? i really want to go to a russel uni
go for it!!
@@ShairaBerg thank you x
just wondering how many times can you go through clearing i don’t understand wen i search it
thank u for this! deciding between manchester and Birmingham atm for psychology so this has been very helpful! which accomodations would you suggest in fallowfield that avoid the party side of things? Thank u😇
Aww amazing! Glad it was helpful, I'd suggest staying away from fallowfield unless you go for ashburne hall if you want to avoid the 'party' scene.
Essentially, victoria park or city campus accommodation if you want to avoid the party scene. I live in the victoria park area, and its v pretty with lots of trees and everything. Whitworth Park is the main campus accommodation, but its mainly international students who live there, but its defo quiet and close to everything :)
Omgg I’m deciding between birmingham and Manchester too idk how I’m going to decide 😭
@@asmaatanveer7444 Where did you end up going! Hope you're doing well now though
@@CarpeDiem-vc3gq I wasn’t able to go to uni this year after falling ill so I’m reapplying this year. I applied to birmingham again but not Manchester. Last year I had formed Manchester over birmingham though
my friend also went to manchester metropolitan university, he didnt like it and dropped out
i was just wondering if this uni has mix diversity like is there black and other race here
it's very diverse I have friends from many different ethnic backgrounds and there isn't any prejudice towards each other, I feel like it's very inclusive and I think others would agree
Hey I am planning to do masters in Management from uk, should i consider uni of Manchester or uni of warwick?
Manchester is great for business!
Thanks 😁
I'm planning the same :)
Would you say that UoM is a university of overachievers or can just very good students have good grades as well?
It's a Russel group university, but there's lots of different people. There's some that really just got A*'s at A-Level especially on the medicine and physics courses, but there's others who were more focused on extracurriculars that are just good students but not necessarily overachievers as such.
@@ShairaBerg That's a great answer. I'll apply for law in UoM, currently doing foundation year at MMU and I was a bit afraid of that... Thanks a lot!!
Soooo hesitant whether I should accept my offer for postgraduate studies at UoM over other offers from top UK unis. Since I am from Germany I don't know too much about the uni. I hope the tuition fee would be worth it, cuz it's pretty expensive. Any advice much appreciated!
Which other offers do you have? It’s a great uni and has a great campus feel and is highly ranked! The only ones considerably above Manchester are the top London unis and Oxbridge
What is the best accommodation for Manchester ? especially for first year students.
phoebe Thomas Any accommodation in fallowfield is really good just be careful about the ones that are “party” accom if you’re not into that !!
@@ShairaBerg is Unsworth Park a party accom? xx
@@Katie-ds9ve bit of both, but not an obnoxious type ygm
What are your thoughts about living off campus?
I know a few people who did and I think if you go out of your way to make sure that you're still meeting people/going out you'd definitely be fine! It's just a little harder as you'd be living away from most people.
after the first year where/how did you find your own private accomodation ? like is there a good website i can look for?
I just moved into a student house with a few friends! Usually you can just google search for student homes in Manchester and it will come up with ones that are available
Nice video cutie
Thanks 🤗
nujabes AND tomppabeats??????????
Did you have to do an interview to get in ? X
Nope only for medicine and dentistry!
My friend just got an interview for chemistry
i have to do an interview for fashion marketing x
@@graciewillow4510 Ahh I think it must be for some other courses too! There wasn’t one for psychology though x
@@ShairaBerg that’s good then! watching your videos now, very informative :) what would you say the people are like at uni or Manchester? i know it’s a silly question but i keep seeing tiktoks saying it’s full of tories and snobby people and its stressing me out 😅x
“I also developed anxiety while I was at university” I- what-
Y
.
🏐
🍅
did you get DSA for your anxiety. or just dass
I just had DASS for my anxiety xx
Is there a good amount of black people
There's lots of people from different backgrounds and cultures at Manchester, my friend group from uni is very mixed! I'd say it's very diverse and there's also no discrimination at all (that I know of through my friends).
You were saying you were considering uni in the US and tbh I thought you were american first 😂 you just look it haha.
Trussss
👎👎
Did you have any previous cheerleading/ dance experience before joining? As I want to join but I am almost a complete beginner! X
I was a total beginner with quite literally two left feet lol, no gymnastics or dance experience but I was willing to work hard!! I'll be making a whole video on cheer and how to get on the team etc xx
