Final comments
It is a bit difficult to be in touch with local students, but you can meet students from everywhere in the world, it is amazing. There are very interesting places to visit fairly close to Leeds, e.g. Liverpool, York, Edimburgh, Lake District, Manchester, etc.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I wanted to meet English people and I have heard thet university accomodation is often with other international students. And it is a much more free way of living. However I would concider trying to find other students to share a house, could be a nice way to meet new people not necessarily studying the same uni courses although there is alwas the risk that you don't get along.

An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:

Personal spending habits
Telephone I think is obvious (alot of overseas calls home). And I spent a lot of money travelling since I wanted to take the opputrunity to see as much as possible. Living close to the univeristy and town I saved money on busses since I walked almost everywhere. Also alot was spent on setting up home (pots and pans cuttlery, tv license, insurance etc).

“My experience as a Food science student”
Dhanushya H
United Kingdom,
Food Science and Technology, 2024
Overall
As a Food science masters student, the main thing about my Course is Food processing and safety as well as the module includes biochemistry, physical aspects of food and microbiology. While it covers all the modules above that is so much needed for a student to have a great knowledge about what they are studying and what they want to do in their future. To me this college is the bestest college ever! I am very much happy to be a student here as all the staffs are so welcoming and friendly and keep smiling the whole time. Whenever we Feel nervous and there they would help us over come any fear about our subject.

Final comments
Going on exchange to the University of Leeds was a great experience that I'll always remember. Leeds is mainly a student town and its very easy to meet people and make new friends. The nightlife in Leeds is amazing and there are things to do every night of the week. I would recommend the University of Leeds to all those thinking about an international exchange program.
