If you value your mental health and hope that teachers will be sympathetic for your reasons, Sheffield is not the place for that. I have been bullied off my Japanese Studies course in 2018 as the staff failed to meet standards to help students with learning disabilities and mental health problems. Since then I’ve even coerced into studying a course I dislike and they expect me to accept everything despite some situations being entirely their fault.

Whilst the university is good in other aspects, if you are interested in studying Chinese/East Asian/Japanese/Korean studies then I would recommend looking elsewhere for that, even going abroad straight away would be a better option as that I was I plan to do to instead of graduating from Sheffield with a Mickey Mouse degree.
