“A very good university if you make sure to find your people”

Overall
A really good university experience overall. Durham is a beautiful city to grow up in and the atmosphere created within it is very cosy and comforting.
Any complaints that you may have about the nightlife being poor (although you come to love it for this) you can resolve with having Newcastle 10 minutes away by train.
The general student population is very white and very posh, so bear this in mind when applying. That said, there are very down to earth students there and you will be able to make friends if rich and white isn't your vibe.
