know a few lads at pompey, quality for students apparently because the place is a hole.
uwe's alright, my mrs goes there and have a few other mates who seem to enjoy it, but on the most part the halls are extortionate and quite a way from the town centre for the best of them (frenchay) probs wouldnt bother with bristol, bit too close to home i'd say and it's chockablock with toffs which i personally couldnt handle.
i'd definetely do cardiff, not too far away but far away enough, quality city and the nightlife is cracking- add to that, depending on what course you're doing, it's probably got the best reputation, i think it's a no brainer mate. best of luck.

Cardiff's got a brand new business school, which adds to the appeal. I've been out in Cardiff and Pompey loads and know it's an ace night out.
I think Liverpool has the best rep of all of them for my course and is arguably the most prestigious of the lot.

I am considering getting a degree and I have a choice of any university that I like to choose from.
About 4,000 Baht from Khao San road, I think that any degree from Oxbridge will be a tad suspect for a chap like me though.

My little bro went to Cardiff as several of my friends - all had a cracking time, nice city and a good night out.
