Generally my experience was good eventhough I was not the one who choose the University but my college. I believe that it needs work and impovement to consider and recommend this university to other people not so much for the academic point of view but for it's location ( Hull - very poor place ) .Good luck then and take under consideration our comments.

It was ok. Some thing you had to find out yourself but it is no problem if you do not have trouble with English language.

It takes time to open up a bank account in England. Make sure you have enough money to cope with the first month. Oh, and you can save a lot in telephone costs if you buy 'international phone cards'.

I wish I had known a bit more about Hull itself, as it isn't the prettiest of towns and the university.

Personal recommendation
In the last few months there have been a lot of changes in the university. For example the main campus will soon be in Lincoln and the administration wasn't always of any help. So it is very nice to be here but because of those changes I wouldn't really recommend it.

To sum things up one might say that Hull is a real student town and it's charm can be dicovered, even if it seems difficult to see it at the beginning. Oh, and everything people say about British wheather.....IT'S TRUE!

Most students probably go to the "LA's" nightclub, which has student nights on thursdays. The "hull Fair", which takes place in October is an event not to be missed.

I did not try it. The fact that University closed the dormitory for holidays would have been a problem for me.

“My 3 years experience of study at the Grimsby Campus”
Phiny H
Lesotho, Undergraduate
, 1996
Overall
The most educational years of my academic experience.
The Lecturers were very supportive. I was not a science students but their patience turned me into one. Today I hold a PhD all thanks to their tenacity and patience with me.
I met students from various countries. The Home based students were very friendly and made us feel at home. During Holidays they extended a warm hospitality to us foreign students. together with one student we spend Christmas holiday at Telford with Sally's family .
Although there were no boarding facilities on the Grimsby Campus, suitable accommodation on private properties was provided at affordable costs. This enabled us to study comfortably and I managed to bring home an upper second class (2:1) Honors degree in Nutrition with Food Science.
