Course recommendations
The courses are really good, your personal tutor will give you a very helpful hand. And the local students are very friendly, as soon as you join the course you will work as team with them, actually the people in Liverpool is very very friendly, so dont worry about the communicate with the local students. In class they got so many activities to do, especially in business and IT class.

Liverpool Hope cant let the student who failed in one module of their course to redo all of their major in the other year. In Liverpool University you can failed in 3 modules and carry on to your next level of study...

The English accent in Liverpool is very very heavy, so it will take you a few days to fit it. Actually it is really hard to understand, it sounds strange, I dont think thats formal English... But in class it doesnt matter, the tutors English are very formal. But if you go to the local pub in Liverpool, mayb you will be totally lost.... (@_@)

Personal comments
Liverpool is famous for its night life. They got so many pub district in town. Such as concert square, I suggest MODO is a very good pub, but if you like cocktails please go to BARBAR. But Liverpool's city centre is so small, as one of the major city in England, but with a tiny city centre, can you believe that? OK, if you decide go shopping on Sunday, it will just take you about 2 hours to look around all the shops in town in Liverpool. But it doesnt matter, take a train or bus to Manchester, it will just take you about 20 mins, shopping there you will feel much better... Events in the uni are good, they got 70' night, Irish night, international students bring a dish party, etc. On campus the sports hall and playground are high quality. and the gym in the uni is very cheap, just ?0 per month, and got all kinds of machines and shower room with them.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Coz in the university's hall is very noisy, so many students back to their room at about 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning. They always wake you up... But if you always have a night out and totally drunk, even throw up, thats not a problem. On the other hand, in the hall is not very clean, you can even see so many small animals in your room, mayb thats because Liverpool Hope University College is an old university?!

Personal comments
Well, the new building at FML is all right, but the old building in HCA is too old and bit of dirty. But all rooms are bit of tiny, especially in the old building, if you have a computer, a hi-fi and a TV, OK, mayb you can just sleep in the narrow corner... and in the old building on floor just have one shower room, so you always can see the long queue in the morning.(but they got so many toilets on the same floor...I really cant understand that...). After all, the facilities in the room is good, it got internet and telephone connections, also has a wash basin, just like all the university halls.
