Housing
Type of housing: Private Student Accomodation
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because in Leeds there is a lot of cheaper, affordable accomodation for students to choose from. The other students that lived in the hall where extremely noisy and got back drunk and moody every single night!

Being a EU postgrad meant that the university couldn't provide on campus accomodation, so I can't really comment on that.

The whole City Center! There are loads of clubs, pubs, nightspots that need not be missed that different people with different tastes can enjoy. Don't miss the indoor market and the Cornexhange!
