    Love you're channel!! Im starting at Man in Sep and you're videos have been the most helpful! I love all your uni videos and wondered if you could make some videos about things you wish you knew before going to uni, or specific things to bring, what a day at uni is like, what events there are, what the city of Manchester is like :) Keep posting!

    • @chantebgittens
      @chantebgittens  Před 4 lety +5

      Emily Nell thankyouuu! I’d say wait because there’s a uom wristband and Fatsoma one so wait to see what everyone else is doing. And yesss join societies for sure, it’s a good chance to meet people x

    this is rlly helpful! I have a question though - im from south Manchester and im not sure if I wanna move away and go to Bristol or stay in MCR but go in accommodation, have u got any opinions/ advice? Id love to be able to experience a new city like you have, but at the same time Manchester might be the smarter choice in case something goes badly

    • @chantebgittens
      @chantebgittens  Před 3 lety +3

      I’d personally move away from home to get the whole uni experience and explore new places x

      Styles I’d say just put yourself out there during freshers, like everyone is in the same position trying to make friends so don’t feel awkward about it. Some people also leave there door open with a door stop on the first few days so they can meet people as they walk past there room. Also join societies x

    Do you have friends who study Computer Science in this university? I’m applying to study this subject but I heard there’re tons of Chinese in this university. I know that in Business School more than 80% of students are Chinese. That’s not cool. So I’m eager to know about the condition in the department of Computer Science. I’m not fond of a class where majority of students are Chinese.
