Glasgow

Great location for transport and shopping only a stone throw away from the main bus station and a car park in Glasgow’s busy city centre!

A great city with such friendly locals, a huge assortment of nightlife venues and bars, fantastic array of shops on the major shopping streets, and tends to be cheaper than the big major cities of London etc.

The location is excellent for food and also places to see as it is in a scenic part of Glasgow. However, it is also a more expensive part of the city.

Glasgow is a large but friendly city in Scotland. The nightlife is very diverse, so there's a place for everyone - if its an electronic dance club or a quirky bar. The city has the biggest shopping area of Scotland. Living here is great as everything is at your fingertips.

Great city with a lot of cool options for entertaining. Whether it is shopping, a night out or eating out - the choice is diverse and most often would not disappoint. You can find everything in the city center.

Glasgow is a great city to live in. Being the biggest city in Scotland it offers great nightlife venues and numerous shopping opportunities not to mention cinemas and other attractions.

Glasgow University is located in a prime situation for travel, accommodation, night life and most importantly - food! With glasgow subway connecting the west end to the south and city centre for a small price, travel around glasgow is very easy and Simple to navigate. Shopping in the area is vast and has a lot of selection with the city centre so nearby. The night life is one of the best in Scotland and there are plenty of places to go. Whether that be a small, local bar or a nightclub, there is something for everyone- drinks are decent priced, however entry into some places may be a little steep. There is lots to do, including cinema, walk around kelvingrove park or do something different and visit escape rooms. The vast variety of restaurants makes it near impossible to stay in and cook! Good student deals in lots of places around the city and the wide selection makes it perfect for eventhe most fussy eaters.

I have lived in Glasgow for 2 1/2 years now and I moved here for college as I use to live on an island. I honestly think it ticks all the boxes for a student life with cool bars and clubs for nights out with plenty of events happening; lots of great places to eat including a variety of places that cater for vegans; venues for concerts; shopping centres and an interesting variety of shops - both high and low end; a friendly community and lots of clubs/groups for whatever your interest whether you're into wakeboarding, salsa dancing or beekeeping!

Glasgow is an amazing city for nightlife. Loads of chill bars and also nightclubs. Hipsters at every corner. Amazing range of restaurants in the city and west end. Never far from whatever you want. Great transport links. Good unis. Cool events like music festivals, gigs, drag shows, the film theatre showings, art shows and theatre. Coffee shops galore and good job opportunities! Love it

Glasgow is the best place in Scotland for Uni, I have really enjoyed living here during my first year at uni. I have met a load of people and made a tone of unforgettable memories. If u are planning on coming here then I would buy an umbrella, its a little wet here ;).

GCU is a great university in terms of location as is right next to the city centre and across the road from the main bus station in Glasgow so is easy to go where you want. The uni is also surrounded by student accommodations which is helpful when you just want to roll out of bed in the morning and go to class!

I love Glasgow... when you see a slogan like “people make Glasgow” you think it’s a bunch of crap but it’s actually so true.

Glasgow literally lives true to its motto "People Make Glasgow". It is without a doubt the friendliest city in Scotland and everyone is always happy to help. There is some of the best shopping in the UK, with 5 shopping centres, amazing bars restaurants and clubs. There is always really cool events going on like you would see in London and it really is the beating heart of Scotland. Go to Edinburgh for the tourism, go to Glasgow to make a home.

Great location with plenty of choice of things to do both at night and during the day. Wide selection of places to eat which are all readily accessible. Transport is cheap. On the most part food and drink is cheap especially for students with many places offering discounts or deal. This is especially apparent in the very centre along bath street etc.

There are many good clubs in Glasgow city centre. Many of them do student nights, meaning that going out is not that expensive (good as a skint student!). I would not recommend going out on a Saturday night however, as it is very expensive and quite fancy. You can tell who the students are! Glasgow city centre has all the shops that you could want, very close to the university. In terms of food, I don’t eat out a lot but when I do, I look for deals, such as ‘Mozza’ do £5 for a pizza before 5pm.

Glasgow is a great city to be a student in! There is an abundance of clubs, bars, cafes and restaurants - most of which offer student deals and discounts. You can walk anywhere and everywhere in under an hour, and the transport is easy. There’s also big parks to enjoy in the summer. You can hop on the train or bus to Edinburgh easily and cheaply as well. Great place to be young!

Good night life, plenty of places to go with good value for money. Always something going on. Good for shopping too

Glasgow has a great nightlife with the city centre encompassing a large variety of nightclubs, trendy bars and places to dine.

Great place for students for night life and socialising. State of the art library and gym. More affordable accommodation is being built

Great location thats close to the city centre so shopping eating and going out are all readily available

Glasgow is a great city, lots of pubs, restaurants, and most importantly: friendly people, Glasgwegians are always up for a good laugh and a few pints :)

Glasgow is really nice, there is always lots to do. You can find almost any shop you might want and the nights out are really cheap, free entry and £1 drink deals etc. There is also trains/ buses/ the subway for getting around

Shops surrounding the uni are fantastic, a great range from pundshop to high end John Lewis etc. Although the uni is based on steep hills in some parts, the fact it is so central is really useful. Close to local food restaurants and take away, coffee shops everywhere and handy convenience stores. There are great pubs for drinks, hanging out with friends and a lively music scene.

Strathclyde university is locatee in the north east of the Glasgow's city centre. Despite this, the university is still an easy walk from central station and Queen Street station as well as bus stops. On top of that, Strathclyde is situated in a perfect location In my opinion. Everything is within walking distance, from shopping to transport to day entertainment then night life. Strathclyde has so much to offer when it comes to non-academic activities and and having a great social life
