I<\/span> hadn&#8217;t seen the University before<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and I fell in love with it as soon as I set foot there.&nbsp;<\/span> Here&#8217;s my Post Offer Visit Day experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting there<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I travelled to the University alone from London, after a concert at Wembley Arena<\/span>.<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> <\/span>W<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">hile it was a nerve-wracking experience, I\u2019m incredibly glad that I went alone. It\u2019s a scary thing to do, but it really forces you to talk to other people <\/span>who are also visiting. It allows you to<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> make up your own mind without others&#8217; opinions clouding your judgement.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Arriving in York<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When I arrived<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I knew immediately that York was a city that I would feel comfortable being a part of. Seeing the train station and the city walls drew my attention to how pretty York is<\/span>.<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I really wish I could say that the aesthetic of the city and campus didn\u2019t play a role in my decision, but I\u2019d be lying.<\/span> The city felt safe and I<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> could see myself living here and enjoying it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I got off of the bus (<\/span>d<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">riven by a man wearing a stereotypical Yorkshire farmer\u2019s cap) on Campus West.<\/span> A<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">fter a few lost minutes stumbled across to Spring Lane Building. It feels strange now to think of how foreign it felt to step off of that bus, now that it has become so familiar. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Spring Lane Building, they had <\/span>a welcoming committee waiting for us<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. I attended an accommodation talk, signed in and <\/span>then headed<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to Biology.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With time to spare, I decided to view some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/study\/accommodation\/rooms-prices\/\">accommodation<\/a> (Vanbrugh and Alcuin)<\/span>. I<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> met another prospective student <\/span>here<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> who I could walk around with. We got split up when we had to go to our respective departments <\/span>though<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span> We were given <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">a free lunch <\/span>(<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">a buffet of sandwiches, pastries and cakes<\/span>). I<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">f anything, it\u2019s worth attending just for the free food<\/span>! At the lunch<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I met another girl that I got on really well with, and who I still see around University now.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We had a welcome talk from the Biology staff and were then split into our individual courses<\/span> (i.e. Biomedical Sciences, Biochemistry, etc.) <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and given course specific talks. After this we <\/span>completed a practical<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and after that we went on a tour of the Biology department.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The overarching impression I got was how friendly the staff seemed and how helpful and driven the student showing us around was. Any questions and doubts I had were answered and reassured<\/span>. I<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> felt comfortable (which for an anxious introvert was both surprising and great).&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The train journey back was a long one, but one that I felt I could enjoy. Knowing that the travel to and from University wouldn\u2019t be too stressful if I ever wanted to go home to visit really reassured <\/span>me.<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I r<\/span>ecommend<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> yo<\/span>u<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> invest in a 16-25 railcard <\/span>though<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, especially if the University is far from home. I got mine with my student bank account, and it has saved me a lot of money.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of course I<\/span>&#8216;<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">d done my previous research and knew that York had a good reputation for Biosciences, hence why I applied without looking around in the first place. Going on <\/span>P<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ost<\/span> O<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ffer V<\/span>isit D<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ays <\/span>h<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">elped me <\/span>decide<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> which one I felt most enthusiastic about and would suit me best. I fell in love with the University of York, so I firmed it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I d<\/span>on&#8217;t regret<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> making the decision to firm York as hastily as I did after seeing it. When you know, you know<\/span>. Y<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">es it\u2019s a long way from home and I miss all of the people that are there, but slowly I\u2019m making new friends and this is becoming home. I love living here. <\/span>I<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">f not for my Post Offer Visit Day experience, the distance may have swayed me into choosing somewhere else.<\/span> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/category\/study\/\">Post Offer Visit Day experiences<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ap-custom-wrapper\"><\/div><!--ap-custom-wrapper-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I got home after my Post Offer Visit Day, I firmed the University of York.
