The University of Edinburgh is definitely one of the best universities I so far encountered during my undergraduate degree in English Language and Literature. It provides first-class teaching, combined with the best state-of-the-art facilities (libraries, study halls, lecture theatres) and the latest academic resources. Apart from university life, the city of Edinburgh offers lots to explore. Many cultural events like the Fringe Festival or the Edinburgh Hogmanay are fantastic opportunities to learn about Scotland’s rich culture. Moreover, the city is in close approximation to surrounding regions and areas of interest like Glasgow, Newcastle and St. Andrews which are definitely worth to visit.
Altogether, Edinburgh is a great place to live and learn. You should definitely take your time there to explore not only the university life and the city itself but learn lots more about Scotland in general. And the University of Edinburgh can surely assist you with organising your explorations around the region!
