[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Junior is seriously considering going abroad. We will be going to the UK in June to tour 6-7 schools (Glasgow, Edinburgh, St Andrews, Manchester, Durham, Exeter, Warwick and Bristol).

Just worried about the hate americans will be getting there given our gov actions in the international stage…[/quote]

Nice list.  I took my DS to see Durham, Warwick, Bristol and Leeds last year.  He applied for Durham and Bristol (and some others he did not visit).[/quote]

We’ve been to Edinburgh twice. We love the city. But we never really officially toured George Square or met with anyone. I hear Durham and Exeter are beautiful campuses and Bristol is more of a City campus.

Is your son at Durham or Bristol now? What did he decide?[/quote]

He has conditional offers for econ from Durham, Bristol and Leeds. Waiting to hear from Edinburgh. Declined by Manchester. He really liked Durham but I think he’s now wondering whether it might feel a bit small after a few years. For that reason, he didn’t look at St Andrews. Loved the vibe of Bristol but didn’t like not having a proper campus. [/quote]

I agree with Bristol. DS also accepted to Bristol. The central area where a lot of the buildings are is ok. Edinburgh doesnt have a proper campus either. DS is also waiting on Edinburgh. His classes would be around George Square, same as your son. But the city is just amazing. He is absolutely in love with the city. [/quote]
