English lit st Loughborough is very chill. Though at first the different reading materials each week can be overwhelming, it definitely becomes more manageable as you get use to it. The assignments are also do-able, not too complex (eg: for this year (my second year) I have multiple choice quizzes as part of one of my assignments). Loughborough as a university is quite small; very different from London. It does have lots of food places to eat and meet up with friends. Friends you will make easily on your course or societies or sport clubs. I find that this makes Loughborough a standout uni due to its wide range of events, activities, clubs and societies it has. Which enable freshers or uni students in general to socialise and have this sense of a community to minimise the typical feelings of loneliness at university.
