Where in England is the best Place to study abroad?

I am a junior in the States looking to study abroad in England! I don't have unlimited funds but still want to have some fun and party over there a little bit... I also want to travel around Europe while I'm there... so I need access to a good airport.





Here are the cities I can choose: London, Hull, Leeds, Leicester, Manchester, or Brighton...





Let me know what you think! Thank you so much =)

Where in England is the best Place to study abroad?
Hello.





England is a great place to live and study and you have some great cities to choose from there. Here a little bit about each place to help with your decision.





London


Frankly the best city in the world! I love the place; we have a buzzy night life- pubs, bars, clubs of every type, phenomenal restaurant culture with fantastic food from all over the world and wonderful museums and art galleries. Add to that a *brilliant* music scene, theatre and great parks and you have a fab place to study. Here are the downsides; Living in London is expensive. (Really expensive - accommodation here is likely to cost about 50% more than anywhere else on your list except maybe Brighton) Also there are five airports as well as a train link to continental Europe. Your European travel could become a habit.





Hull


My flatmate went to uni there and loved it. It is by all accounts a great city for student life. It's by the sea (the North sea - v. cold you probably will not want to swim in it.) It has a huge aquarium. It's in Yorkshire which is great. Downsides? It will be cold and wet in the winter, but then most of England is cold and wet in the winter. And there is only one airport close by but you can fly cheaply to Europe from it and they are adding destinations all the time.





Leeds


Another *great* student city - night life, music etc. Also in Yorkshire, I love Leeds and the surrounding area. One airport again but great trains to London or Edinburgh.





Leicester


The good people of Leicester are not going to thank me. But for me, here would be bottom of the list you have given. Nothing much happens and it smells of pies.





Manchester


Another great student city. Music scene here is almost as good as London and night life is great. Cheaper too. Also a couple of airports near by.





Brighton


On the south coast. You can easily get to London and all it's facilities, Brighton is fun and buzzy but smaller than the capital so may feel more personal. It is unfortunately almost as expensive here as London.





The main thing is you will have fun wherever you go. And when you travel don't forget the rest of the UK. It is a beautiful country.
Reply:LONDON I think is the best
Reply:london..it's a very good spot as there are a lot of good schools nearby
