    I can imagine that this video is really useful and informative for people going to the uni of notts. I’m going Nottingham Trent but I’m staying at home which is a little different and I honestly can’t wait to vlog it.
    Also I was thinking it may be useful to some people if you make a campus tour video maybe? X

      Ah thank you! Trent looks so fun 🤩 can’t wait to watch your vlogs! Oh definitely that’s such a good idea thank you 🥰 I did a sort of campus tour on the official university of Nottingham channel xx

      Ah that will be fun being right in the centre of all the action! Only 20 mins on the tram from the city to the campus, and I think it’s less than £2 :)

    Aw what a good video! I honestly did not know some of this information so this was very helpful! I am not much of a drinker/partier so the fact there are other things to do makes me feel a lot better haha. I am thinking of joining the Kayaking society, ballroom society, and my course society, I cannot think of the others right now haha. Its now literally 4 weeks away until I go! What societies did you join for first year? xxx

      Ah I’m glad! Pretty decent I think, it’s a Russell Group university! Have a look on league tables, though they’re not the most important thing when choosing a uni. The modules, campus, variety of things to do etc in my eyes are the main factors to look out for

    I have one question. Loneliness exists everywhere. If a person is coming alone from his country how can he adjust over here according to culture , weather , people in order to avoid loneliness at university of nottingham ?

      if you’re a first year it’s free and you don’t have to sign up or anything, but if you’re second or third or not part of the subject, then go onto the uon societies webpage and search geogsoc and it’s a fiver x

    What do you do in a society?

    • @MeganMahoney1
      @MeganMahoney1  Před 2 lety

      So much! Mainly a way to interact with people with a similar interest. So if it’s a sport, you do that together, or if it’s a subject society, you might go to events or trips that relate to that. And then you do socials with the society which are fun and a way to make friends. They’re usually about £2 to join not much at all xx
