    My University is awesome, and that is the brutal truth and the important difference between you,…read morethe reader, and me, the student. You are blissfully unaware of what we get, here at QMUL. The student village is awesome, with rooms for over a thousand first years available. I live in the largest building of them all, 450 people all present and loving a bit of uni life. There is a convenience store just a one minute walk from my building, selling almost all of the groceries you could desire. There is a laundry room with about 16 washers and driers, and to sort your washing out (a once a week occurance) will only cost you £2.50. I strongly feel that when I move out of this place in my second year that I will be using this laundry room still! The student union, a five minute walk across campus, provides both a large and well furnished gym and a bar that turns into a club for certain nights of the week (Well, most nights of the week) so it's awesome. The academia of this university can't be doubted. An excellent school of knowledge, complete with a massive library that opens until midnight on weeknights makes the learning experience awesome. The lecturers are accessible and helpful in almost all cases and the labs and seminar rooms are top of the range. An excellent place to come.

    Having recently graduated from Queen Mary I have, over the course of the last three years, had the…read moreopportunity to experience first hand the atmosphere, academic standard and social opportunity this insitution offers. Situated in the increasingly trendy area of Mile End, with great transport links to the city, students of this university have the opportunity to live within the last genuine working class area of central London before it is swallowed up in the unstoppable tide of gentrification. I love this area of the city; there is a buzz in the air everywhere you go, development is everywhere you look and down every street you will find an array of different cultures all contributing something unique to this cosmoplitan sprawl. Mile End and the surrounding areas offer their own range of shops, restaurants, pubs, bars, clubs, parks, markets, cinemas, galleries, theatres and much else besides. Some areas can be a little intimidating but I feel the media plays an overly-large part in stressing the dangers rather than the positives. Chances are, so long as you're sensible, you're not likely to run into much trouble. Queen Mary campus itself is located a stones throw away from Mile End and Stepney Green tube stations. During the last few years it has undergone a rather dramatic facelift with the completion of work on new buildings such as the curve, remodelling of the student union and the student village and continuing works on a new humanities building. These new features are demonstrative of the increasing popularity of this consistently improving university. Aside from the forementioned students union which houses Drapers Bar, Queen Mary offers several coffee/cafateria style bars and restaurants, laundry services, excellent library facilities, on campus accomodation (a rarity for London university's), sports facilities including a new state of the art gym, and several shops. Anything not available on campus can be found within a short walk. Socially there is a wealth of clubs and societies available for you to join from Hockey to Croquet, History to Football and Climbing. Most revolve around drinkin games of one sort or another and can be a great way to branch out, meet new people and secure that elusive criminal conviction. Just down the road one can find the uber-trendy areas of Brick Lane and Shoreditch and after a short walk to the tube, the rest of London's vibrant social scene is at your disposal.

The architecture is really awesome and throughout the day spent in Ravensbourne you enjoy a lot of sunshine as the windows are merged with in the block-like structure of the building. Views are also outstanding as sitting in one room you can ponder on the Emirates Air Line as well as the oval of O2 that is just a footstep away from this place. I wish more events were organized in this space as traveling to North Greenwich would be much more exciting if to only visit Ravensbourne. Inside the layout is quite exceptional with lots of open spaces and ad-hoc meeting pods. This is a prime example of co-working space as well as modern office design.

    Ravensbourne makes me want to go back to school! I have been here on several occasions, including…read morean open house with taster workshops. I loved the displays of work by students and the idea of being able to check out classes before signing up. Mind you, the hour's taster was not really representative and confusing rather than enlightening. I have also been for a couple of events as Ravensbourne is regularly used for conferences. Most recently I attended a 2-day conference by the Craft Council which was extremely well organised in perfect setting. The college is located right next to the Millennium Dome and provides a good excuse to have a nose around an area I wouldn't normally visit.

    I was a massive square at school (until I discovered I could get served in a pub at 15, anyway). I…read moredid my homework on time, I always did super amazing projects and liked getting top marks. That apparently hasn't changed and this week I went back to school. It's BRILLIANT. I'm doing a photography course at Greenwich Community College. This one is about composition and framing, and in two hours, I've already learnt stuff. I don't know the basics of photography, I've never been taught the technical stuff (I've also never asked anyone). So my four-week long course will teach me the basics, and also how to break the rules. We don't just sit in a photography classroom, oh no. Off I went running about Greenwich taking photos. Of flowers and double yellow lines, mostly. And then the best bit: We get homework! Oh, the school square in me is so pleased about the homework. I have to apply all the things I learnt last night, and show my best work next week. And we have an end of course presentation too. In a four week course. I'm so excited. I probably deserved the school bullying, if I'm honest. I'm even annoying myself with my excitement. Greenwich College are actually offering the first course you do with them for free, which is amazing. But the courses aren't massively expensive anyway. I might get a bit of a photo bug after this one and do them all. And no doubt be super excited about having to do homework.
