Ok, here's my one practical bit of advice for Uni life:
Take a can opener and a bottle opener. Everyone forgets at least one of those.
Enjoy!

There's a word that sums up this sort of behaviour, and that word is 'reject.'

Don't fucking party until your last year, and for fucks sake SHOW UP TO CLASS. You would be amazed at how easy it is to pass if you just SHOW UP.

This is seriously just sound life advice.
Like 90% of school is just showing up - the rate sort of drops to about 78% after school, but it's still pretty considerable nevertheless. :P

Well they don t give scholarships to international students just like that..maybe once there and having good grades or something..
There are other ways to pay for tuition like beeing a teaching or research assistent..getting grants and stuff..
The problem to get the student visa I need to show the US government that I have the money. Bank account has to have at least 28.000US$

U should of done Leeds or Liverpool for the nightlife! What are the student nights like there??
Fresher week started yet? I went to Birmingham, And the best advice I can give you, is to come out with a 2:1 or higher, Ive got the impression employers look down on you with any less, and so they should.
Yeah its Freshers week, i got a pub quiz tonight at the stuident nightclub lol.
The nightlife is good. Really enjoying it, i've got to sign up for Scuba Diving as one of my modules in later today
