I've just been to Glasgow. And I was impressed by the life that a student could lead in Glasgow on not very much money. Very impressed.
I'd always thought that London was tough going for students, because of the high rents and the difficulty in living close to college. I'd been impressed by Liverpool (cheap, and easy to get around) and Cardiff (surprisingly pretty, cheap, but not so easy to get around). York clearly has advantages, but it's not cheap.
What are your thoughts? I confess to asking for a reason - The Kid will, if she passes her exams, be going off to uni in 2010. That 'if' by the way is written in flaming neon, but, be that as it may, it would be good to hear what recent graduates thought.
