University of Glasgow
Microbiology [BSc/MSci]
I am from Kilmarnock, Ayrshire where I grew up in a predominantly working-class area and family. I am the first member of my family to finish secondary school education and attend university. I initially came to Glasgow to study zoology but quickly changed to microbiology after discovering my passion for infectious diseases and lab work. I am secretary for Glasgow University Immunity & Infection Society and UofG Antimicrobials & Antimicrobial Resistance Society. I also run and act as secretary for an anti-hate crime charity in Kilmarnock called 4ward2gether which I have done since 2019. Starting university can be very daunting but don’t be nervous as so many other people are feeling the same! I will do my best to help you with any questions you may have!

University of Lincoln
Pharmacy - MPharm
Hi I’m Ellie and I’m a Second Year Pharmacy student. I will be at Lincoln for 3 more years and plan on becoming a pharmacist when I graduate. I did A Level Biology, Chemistry, Maths and EPQ and I am very familiar with the clearing process due to my A levels not going as expected so feel free to ask questions around this subject too! Clearing felt very daunting at first when things didn’t go as planned on results day, but the process was actually really easy and ended up finding the university that’s best for me. Everything was so quick and it really helped me to settle into university lifestyle. So yeah, any questions you have about this I’m happy to answer :)

Hi! I’m Elodie, a second year Maths and Comp Sci student at Strathclyde. I’m originally from Edinburgh; I stayed in halls during first year and am now renting a flat in the centre of Glasgow, so I’m very willing to help out with any queries related to accommodation or finding a place to stay :) I also have to work a part-time job alongside my studies so if this is something that concerns you I’d be open to answering any questions. Studying a joint degree has its own unique challenges, but I think it’s extremely worthwhile and I will take any chance I get to talk about how much I love my degree!
Elsa

BA (Hons) Sociology
Hello, my name is Elsa! I am currently in my third year studying BA (Hons) Sociology. I chose to study Sociology as I have always wanted to gain a deeper understanding of how people interact and I am interested in understanding complex social issues such as inequalities! I am not entirely sure what I want to do after I graduate, but I have many possible options as Sociology is such a broad degree. I love socialising with friends, going to cafes and running in my spare time. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, I am always here to help! I look forward to hearing from you.
Ema
University of Strathclyde
BEng Biomedical Engineering
I moved to Scotland at the age of twenty and can understand how diffcult it can be, but it also was the best challenge I have ever faced. I do biomedical engineering and want to focus on a combination of electronics and cell biology in the future. I came to this realization from internships and would love to give advice and help in any way I can. I am also passionate about art and crafting in any shape and form and focus a lot on perserving time for hobbies even when the university gets challenging, so we can also have a chat about that! :)

Emilia
King's College London
Forensic Science
Hi! I’m Emi, and I’m currently studying MSc Forensic Science at King’s College London. I’m based at the Waterloo campus, which is where I spend most of my time in lectures, labs, and mock crime scenes (definitely one of the coolest parts of the course).
I did my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry at the University of Manchester, and during that time, I completed a year-long placement in Thailand. That experience really shaped me, both in terms of my lab skills and my love for travel and experiencing new cultures.
I’m especially interested in applying science in meaningful ways, particularly in forensic investigation, wildlife crime, and animal welfare, and I hope to work in a role that lets me combine those interests in the future.
Outside of uni, I’m very into arts and crafts, especially making jewellery. I’m also part of the art society and love winding down by watching international films. If you have any questions about King’s, forensic science, moving to London, or just uni life in general, feel free to message me. I’m always happy to help!

Medicine [MBChB]
Hi, I'm Emily! I am a 4th year medical student at the University of Glasgow. I am originally from Ayrshire but currently living in Glasgow. I went to St Andrews for the first 3 years of my degree and am now completing my clinical years in Glasgow. Outside medicine I enjoy dancing, yoga, reading and crochet as well as exploring the many parks in Glasgow! I am unsure what speciality of medicine is for me just yet but enjoying getting exposure to as many as possible!
Emily
University of Warwick
Economics (UG)
I’m an undergraduate student studying Economics at the University of Warwick, with a keen interest in development economics and its real-world applications. I love exploring how economic principles can be used to address global challenges, from inequality to sustainable growth. I also enjoy mathematics, not just as a tool for summarising economic models but as a way to deepen our understanding of the reasoning behind them.
Having studied in both Thai and UK education systems, I’ve experienced the transition first-hand, so I understand the challenges and adjustments involved. I’m also a Royal Thai Government scholar, which means I will return to Thailand after my studies to serve as a diplomat at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Beyond academics, I have worked closely with the Royal Thai Embassy, coordinating special occasions such as the National Day Reception and events for Thai student communities. If you're considering studying Economics, adapting to university life, or getting involved in student activities, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help! 😊

Durham University
LLB Law (M101)
Hi! I’m a first-year student studying Law here at Durham University. I’m from Preston, Lancashire and I am a liver in at Stephenson College. I am a member of the Women in Law Society, the Horrible Histories Society and the DU Judo club. In my spare time, I love watching old 90s and 2000s Tv shows as well as cheesy romantic comedies with my flatmates! I’m really passionate about martial arts, especially Japanese Ju Jitsu which I have a brown belt in and I’m currently working towards my black belt with my club back home. My favourite thing about Durham University is the college system which is how I met my friends and course mates! After Durham, I’m hoping to become a solicitor in employment or family law.

I’m also on the study abroad scheme so can answer any enquiries about this.

Emily
University College Birmingham
Prosthetics for Film and Television, MA
From 2016-2018 I studied Art, Photography and Psychology A-Levels at Princethorpe College, Rugby, and after not being too sure of what I wanted to study at university I decided to throw myself into full time employment. I then came across the Specialist Hair and Media Make-Up course here at University College Birmingham and applied in 2020. Moving cities during the pandemic was very strange, however I soon became very comfortable at The Maltings where I lived with the majority of my classmates. After three years of study, I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree and I have now moved onto studying Prosthetics for Film and Television MA. Alongside the masters degree, University College Birmingham gave me the opportunity to work for them as an intern in the Marketing Department as part of the masters internship bursary scheme, where my course is paid for in the form of 400 hours of work over the academic year (September-July), which has been a huge benefit for myself financially. I also work as a part time front of house team member at a restaurant in Birmingham city centre, I enjoy this job a lot as I get to interact with lots of different people, I also feel very accepted there as I am free to express myself with my piercings, tattoos and makeup.
