After spending 12 years as a military musician, I made the decision to change careers and study dietetics! I am about to start my 2nd year as a mature student. I'm originally from Southampton but work brought me to Plymouth before starting Uni, so I know the area well. Please feel free to ask me any questions about the course, uni life, being a mature student or the local area - I'm happy to help!

Physical Education, Sports Development and Physical Activity and Health
Hey! I went to uni after completing my GCSEs and A-Levels and with the smallest clue of what I wanted to do for a career. Now, in my final year I can say it was the best decision for me, gifting me the chance to grow into an adult with adult responsibilities amongst others in the same situation and has aligned and inspired my interests for the future. Through my course I’ve become keen to pursue personal training and work in the fitness industry! Uni has so far been the most fun experience and by throwing myself into everything on offer like socials; sports; societies I would say I’ve had a quite well-rounded experience of university.

Events Management | BA (Hons)
Hi! I'm Abi, Events Management student.
I am currently on my placement year in industry and loving the experience ive been getting.
I lived in halls first year and a student house second year, lived back at home during my placement and moving back into a student house for final year.
I am a very active, 'outdoorsy' person who likes to be on the go, currently bodybuilding and I have come from a farming/equestrian background, adjusting to city life, using public transport to get around! I have enjoyed nights out in the city of Leeds and days finding activities to do.
Loving Leeds Beckett and the city :)

Keele University
English & Creative Writing
Hey, I'm Becka! 🌷 I recently graduated from Keele with a degree in English Literature and Creative Writing and am now an MA Creative Writing student here. I love all things art, from writing to drawing to fashion and self-expression. I also spend a lot of time playing video games, eating food and taking pictures of my cat (my phone storage is nearly full).
I've taken electives in philosophy, psychology, media studies and sociology, and live off-campus. In the future I hope to live in a remote forest treehouse (with a good wi-fi signal). Feel free to ask me any questions about uni! 🦋

Business and Management
I'm a second-year BA International Business student at NTU. I'm loving my time at NTU so far and I'm so happy that I decided to do International Business as I was torn between a couple of other majors while applying to uni. I know how hard it can be to make a decision about your future, so please, don't think your question isn't worth asking.
