[Lalalalaboomful]

@AhhMagicLyrics Thanks for all your help :) haha didn't think anyone would reply!

@Lalalalaboomful I'm in the same predicament, I can't decide between Leeds and Reading! Have you picked your firm and insurance yet?

@AhhMagicLyrics what are the entry requirments?

[AhhMagicLyrics]

@Tootz412 .. It's only about a 30min walk to the town center and the Oracle and the 20 and 21 buses go directly into campus. There's also a smaller campus at Bulmershe but I think that's slowly being closed and another small campus at London Road. There's the main great hall there and it's where some of the exams and graduation is held.

@Tootz412 Well there're lots of different types of trees! lol jk. But yeah I'd say so, the campus is very nice and green and was a big factor in my decision to come here, there're lots of open spaces and fields. The buildings are all quite close together with the exception of the agriculture, meteorology and psychology buildings which are together. Palmer, HUMSS, the union, union shop and the library are all very close together so that's handy. The lake's also lovely....

@AhhMagicLyrics Thank you :) Is the campus quite diverse?

[AhhMagicLyrics]

@Lalalalaboomful Oh and one final thing, sorry- don't worry about the buildings being a bit crap cos they're currently renovating and re-building a lot of the buildings on Whiteknights campus, in the 2 years I've been there, Mackinder, Stenton, Childs Halls, Stenton townhouses, Kendrick Student village have been newly opened. As well as the Hopkins building, Minghella building and changes to the campus shops :)
