Here’s which Hogwarts house matches your Sheffield uni lifestyle

There’s no right or wrong way to experience uni life, or is there? Whether you’re reading this from the comfort of your little house on Ecclesall Road, from the Diamond (my guy, please go home and shower every once in a while), the gym, or the flat that costs more than any sum of money I can hope to earn with my arts degree you might already have an idea of which Hogwarts house you belong to.

Is it Ravenclaw? Slytherin, maybe? Could it be Hufflepuff? Or, are you meant to be in Gryffindor? Well, I’m here to help you find out, so buckle in, and keep reading to find out which house the Sorting Hat would’ve put you in.

Ravenclaw

The IC is basically your home. You’re the type of person who corrects lecturers, sits in the first row, has never missed a class and does the extra reading. Some may say you don’t have a life, but hey, you came to uni to study, not to party, and you’ve made that clear.

We’ll probably find you here in twenty years, post PhD and pursuing a career in academia. Maybe by then you will have learned how to chill a little. Maybe.  

Hufflepuff

There’s one word to describe you: Balanced. You are quiet, polite, calm and are aiming for a normal university experience. You know all the answers, but you won’t speak in class unless forced. You have a small group of friends, some of them may be strictly course mates; you value your alone time.

We definitely won’t find you in your PJs on West Street on a Wednesday night. The libraries are too loud for you, so studying at home or in a cafe it is. Overall, you’re protecting your peace, and I support it.

Gryffindor

You know everyone, like everyone. You also peaked in secondary school (I hate to break it to you). Stop trying to bring back your glory days; everyone else has moved on.

You’re also insufferable when varsity rolls around, wearing merch 24/7, captioning your Instagram posts with #bleedblackandgold, and telling everyone you almost made the cut for the actual Sheffield football team (you didn’t). But you still play for your faculty. That’s the same thing at the end of the day isn’t it? No, no it’s not; who doesn’t play for a subject sports team at this point?

Slytherin

You’re posh; there’s no other way to say this. You’re a future finance bro and wear a tie to class.

You’re only here cause you didn’t get the grades for Oxbridge and are trying to recreate that environment at Sheff (hence the ties). It’s not going to work.

You’re the type of person to look me straight in the eyes and ask me where I usually go skiing and be shocked when I say: “No, sorry, my family doesn’t own a holiday home.”
