I would recommend any one trying to get a further education to strongly think about university of the west of England, all the lecturers are friendly and very approachable and the city life is one of the best in the UK.Uwe also has lots of local amenities such as gyms, cinemas and bowling plus loads more

First year was great in UWE - applying for accommodation was easy, and the room I had came with an ensuite. Room was a good size but was quite pricey, although bills are included (I stayed in Brecon Court). Throughout the 3 years everyone's seemed friendly, and I've never had any major problems, everyone seems quite keen to try and help you out if they can. The facilities available were perfect for me personally, doing a Computing course all the PCs were equipped with everything we needed, and they were powerful enough to not struggle with it (great if you don't have the $$$ to fork out on a powerful PC).The nightlife in Bristol is great and pretty much caters to everyone. Not a big fan of most clubs, but Motion in the city center is everything you could want for an underground night, and Gloucester Road is great for having a couple pints. Only gripe here would be that UWE is a bit of a trek from the city center for nights out.
