- I enjoy tv and the media. Social networking, films. = Media Production BSc (the best) Facilities really attracted me and because of the high graduation stats and employability after. Aslo the BBC contacts. I looked at local universities, UCAS and their courses, looked at their student union and had open days.
- Why come to uni? Met so many new friends, and got involved with so much as well as learning essential skils: cooking, cleaning, washing, budgeting, time planning, organising. First 2 years I wasn’t involved in many societies, now I am. I have volunteered others haven't. One reason I lived at home was for that reason.
