Student review [#23407] for English Language and Literature
at The University of Edinburgh

I am currently in my second year of study at Edinburgh, and I am so grateful for all the opportunities it has provided me with so far. I have studied a wide range of subjects, including Politics, Latin, and Art History. The chance to diversify your range of subjects really enriches your university experience and helps immensely with your ability to adapt to several areas in life. Being able to personalise your academic journey to such a high degree definitely gives you a unique education with a strong backing. I can definitely say that I never get bored! Apart from that, the English Literature department itself is fantastic-throughout remote learning last year I still felt that I was given an excellent education. Professors were always readily available via email for anything that I needed assistance with and were very enthusiastic both in class and outside it. Aside from the academics, the university is set in the gorgeous historic city of Edinburgh, which has the best of both urban and rural-you can be up Arthurs Seat seat in the morning and shopping on Princess street in the afternoon! It is definitely an inspiring place to live and really enriches the university experience. Student life is also fantastic, with lots of societies that link to the degree such as scriptwriting or slam poetry. Overall, I would recommend an English degree at the University of Edinburgh.
