Edge Hill University - EHU Speciality : Accounting & Finance
programme: Accounting and Business Finance

I have recently started my second year at Edge Hill, doing Business and Management with Finance and Accounting (undergraduate).

I absolutely love it here – the campus is beautiful, there are heaps of opportunities to make good friends, resources available are amazing (for example the library has 4 floors, designated silent study areas as well as social spaces all around campus, several cafes across campus, careers support for finding placements/internships/part-time work).

My course is brilliant too – loads of support for studying and a lot of opportunities for extracurricular CV enhancing activities. Lecturers really care about you.

Accomodation is also great – rooms are spacious with enough space for everything you might bring with you and extra. Kitchens are decent, cleaners are nice, almost every single room in the uni is ensuite (apart from some in Forest Court).

I think the only (almost?) downside is the limited nightlife – Ormskirk is small, and there is only 1 club (called Alpine). Aside from that there are plenty of pubs, so you won’t run out of new places to try.

Anyway, I hope that this helps anyone who can’t make their mind up – after visiting an open day here and at the Uni of Manchester, I chose Edge Hill for all the stated reasons, despite it not being a Russell group uni 🙂
