Forget the alphabet, this is the official A-Z guide to life as a Manchester student

Navigating uni can be tough, so As the first semester of the academic year comes to an end, you have no doubt realised the hidden treasures of Fallowfield and what being a Manchester student has to offer. But if not, we’ve compiled an alphabet to Manchester uni life here in one place for you.

A – Asbestos

#RIPOwensTower

B – Blue 2

Nothing says studious quite like the Blue 2 catwalk in front of everyone you know (or pretend not to).

C – Chesters

No words needed.

D – Didsbury Dozen

Of course this had to make the Manchester uni life alphabet. The best way to spend a wholesome weekend in the picturesque Didsbury village? Chopping 12 pints straight dressed as a Minion.

E – Elf Bar (rip)

The “healthy” alternative to smoking.

F – Fallowfield fashion

Just bought another Y2K, super rare vintage piece from this niche second hand shop called Depop.

G – Grand Central Spoons

Where else can you get cheap drinks surrounded by middle aged men?

H – Hinge

Typical Sunday? Roast and F1.

I – INVADES

That yellow microphone at Haydock hates to see me coming.

J – Jorts

Whatever the weather, the Fallowfield uniform stays.

K – K****ine

If you know, you know.

L – Landlords

Give me my deposit back.

M – Magic Bus

Everyone’s favourite trusty steed with some crazy side characters.

N – Nectar Card

Although in the midst of destruction, her prison cell, flat party legacy will live forever xxx

P – Pandora’s

Need I say more?

Q – Queue for a 256 Tuesday

Only the more courageous (inebriated) out of us can hack that queue.

On my gap yah, I need a new North Face Puffah – you get the ideah.

S – Squirrels (rip)

Three for £10 on Green Monsters? Yes please.

T – Tequila at Southside

Because what do they put in that strawberry frozen marg?

U – Urban Outfitters fluffy Afghan coat 

You already know the exact one I’m on about.

The DJ Billy Friday night takeover.

Making the best memories and the worst mistakes all whilst dressed up in anything but clothes.

X – XLR

“Yah I’m actually DJing at this really underground club this Tuesday.”
