Personal comments
There is a pub at campus called the "DIVE". Most people go to the pub first and then go to a club in town. There is a busstop in front of the main entrance and at the back entrance. For people who are really into sports; this is a paradise! You can do lots of sports!

It is okay for three months. I am at Wyvern Hall, which is one of the four different Halls. In your room there is bed, desk, cupboard, little desk and a mirror. There isn`t a lot of space but it will do!
