Student Life in Cardiff

So, you’ve conquered secondary school (congratulations by the way) and you’re ready to venture in to the world of higher education. You’re probably leaving home for the first time and, whether you’re staying close by or venturing further afield, that can be a daunting prospect. New town, new people, new experiences; maybe a whole new way of life just around the corner.

Hopefully you’re thinking about choosing Cardiff for your new home. If not, then you really should be. We have a vibrant but compact city centre, it’s really easy to find your way around and there’s plenty of choice when it comes to shopping, nightlife, sports and events, not to mention our stunning waterfront at Cardiff Bay. Don’t just take our word for it though, here’s some testimonial written by a thoroughly splendid fellow named Dylan in July 2018, straight from the horse’s mouth…

“Cardiff is presumably the best city in the world! The bars, the nightlife, the location, entertainment! Nights out are fantastic! It has everything. It’s the capital city of Wales and Cardiff City are in the premier league! Not forgetting Cardiff Bay where you can take boat rides and watch amazing musicals at the Wales Millennium Centre.”

Now, thanks to Dylan (he’s not actually a horse in case you were wondering, we aren’t aware of any horses currently studying in Cardiff but we’re sure they would given the choice), you’ve decided to come and study in presumably the best city in the world. Hurrah! You probably still have a lot of questions though, we’ve tried to answer as many as possible for you on this page. If you can’t find what you’re looking for then please get in touch!
