ive been to leeds, looks quite a good uni tbf, good town centre aswell, just the major off put is where the students live. the whole area is so grim and depressing , just rows and rows of thousands of old brown run down houses lol
people i no who go there all love it tho :S

leeds is meant to be nice
but manchester ftw!
everyone i know at nottingham loves the uni but says nott's is a crap hole, same as the birmingham uni's
i'd have loved to have gone to a london uni, but cant warrent the cash
brighton is also very nice, as is sheffield / sheff hallam
theyre the uni's i have experience with

if im being honest, move away from home, the life is amazing, i went to uni in september, but unfortuantly i have returned home today for good due to not enjoying my course. But i strongly advise living away otherwise you wont experience the true uni, and believe me you need to! :)

University of the west of england!! in the 3rd year and have loved it all! Bristol has good nightlife too. worth a look boyo.
Living at home is cheaper / moving away is much more fun!

Newcastle. Amazing night life, great city, good Uni.
Or if your wanting something a bit closer to home, what about York? Ranked 11th Best uni in UK.
Out of Leeds/Hull personally I would go for Leeds just because its a bigger city, and has 2 uni's = better night life.
I'd definately consider living away though, so many people say its the best experience of their lives.
To help you out...

I'm re-applying to go to Chester, didn't like living in a city, and don't drink so hated Uni. and hated my course at Preston (UCLAN). Was doing Computer Games Development.
Now applying to do Natural Hazard Management With Geography Combined course.

Hull I've heard isn't a great city at all, so staying in Leeds is your best bet.
