For the study abroad applications you apply during your first year! The application is pretty simple and there’s loads of help and advice send out to you when you start at the uni to make to super easy :)

[@chlofit_xo2012]

I lived in Greenbank this year and I absolutely loved it! You won’t even care that you’re further out from campus and the city centre. You’ll probably live on Smithdown Road in your second and third years, so living in Greenbank in your first year means that you’ll already know the area really well. Make sure you check out Lark Lane, Sefton Park, the Watering Can and the Brookhouse, they’re all within walking distance of Greenbank xx

[@hannahgladstone7637]

Thank you!! To be honest i think what they accept is totally dependent on the volume of people applying for the course that year. For example a friend of mine who also applied to Liverpool and got BBC didn't get onto her course. When i went to the open day and asked a lecturer he said typically they don't offer spaces for people who drop more than one grade below the requirements, so i guess i was just super lucky!! :)

Glad it helped! I would say it takes around 10 mins to get to the middle of campus and it defo felt safe.
