GCU is surrounded by different kinds of accommodation between the uni’s own (cali court - offering en suite and shared bathroom options), and private letting agencies. Dobbies point is beautiful and right next to the student association building!
Big fan of the saltire centre which is our library, the roof top garden has also opened up! There’s a gym attached, the SU bar is good for a chill time or burger etc during the day (veggie/vegan/halal options too), just doesn’t stay open late at night.
the vision centre is stunning; because we have all of the Scottish funding you couldn’t fault all of the equipment, how pristine everything is and the lecturers all put in a lot of work and there for questions/emails as needed.
Glasgow city-life wise you cannot get better than. There’s a scene and place for absolutely everyone, you won’t find a friendlier location with such a diverse mix of people toghether - so many clubs, bars, events, gigs, everything’s together and useful for transport too!
It’s absolutley a fantastic choice - i know most people doubt their choices at times but I’m very glad. It is very heavy on assessment and exams grounds in second year and to be prepared for it - and it’s definitely worth having done biology in school!
