What would you say to students who are unsure about coming to study at Cardiff University?

Cardiff is a wonderful student city, and there is a great Students’ Union, with plenty of opportunities. London is easy for a weekend or day trip, and two airports nearby can get you throughout Europe for travel. Also, the castle and park in the center of the city are the coolest things.

What can you tell us about being in Wales and the Welsh culture?

Wales is a beautiful country with Brecon Beacons nearby and Snowdonia farther up north. The Cardiff Bay is also a great place to see. The nature is pretty easy to see and is magnificent.
