I loved my stay in Belfast itīs a nice and friendly city. A tip is to really make the most of your stay..try to travel around, thereīs some amazing scenary by the coasts. However donīt travel too much because time really passes by fast and you donīt want to miss out on anything in Belfast either.

Research the area you're going to study in before you go. Find out where you will live and research what is around you. Plan out where you want to travel while you are there.

Personal comments
I stayed at Elmīs Village accomodation in a dorm with ensuite bathroom. It was ok. The positives were that it was very clean and that almost everyone you socilaized with lived there too. The drawbacks were that it was pretty controlled, after 11 oīclock at night (some nights) they checked peoples studentcards by the entrance. For security reasons, only students and really only students that lived at Elmīs Village were allowed to get in. This made it difficult to have friends from back home come and visit.

Overall
Queen's University Belfast is a part of a prestigious Russell Group. In terms of facilities and international reputation, it showcases a brilliant performance. However, I did find that opportunities for placements were rather lacking for courses that are not STEM or Law.

Pros
Strong STEM and Law Faculties
Cons
Not enough of diverse placement opportunities
