University of Edinburgh

Well, I had my tour of the University of Edinburgh today, which was quite interesting. The campus is somewhat spread out through the city of Edinburgh, but buildings with similar subjects are in the same rough area. I think it's a really nice university, with old buildings, a great climate, interesting degrees, nice residence ideas, and a lot of other things. The city is so nice, so I wouldn't at all mind living here, and the facilities are nice as well, so I don't think I would dislike the actual university. There are some cool degrees, like Philosophy and Economics, International Relations, Business Studies and a Language, and many more things. And apparently, from what I've read, the teaching is quite good as well. It's fairly easy for me to get in, I think, at least compared to Oxbridge, so I think this may be my second choice school, and one that I would go to if I truly wanted to study in the UK and if I didn't like any of the US ones I get into. It's going to be an adventure, let me tell you that! I look forward to seeing St. Andrews tomorrow and comparing it. Until then, goodbye!
