Plan a bank holiday weekend and we’ll tell you which Russell Group uni you should go to

If you’re off on a girls trip to Italy you’re 100 per cent an Exeter girlie


It’s finally here! August bank holiday is upon us and I’m ridiculously excited. There’s lots and lots going on this weekend. There are Leeds, Reading, Lost Village and Creamfields festivals, there’s Manchester Pride and then there are those of us who are actually organised and managed to book a girl’s trip to Northern Italy or somewhere else boujee af.

You might, however, just be looking to spend the weekend absolutely wrapped in your duvet, with three Deliveroo drivers on standby and eight seasons of Gilmore Girls to get through. You might be having a wholesome barbecue with your family or even spending it in the library. Whatever your vibe is, there’s lots to get up to this August bank hol weekend.

One of the things you might be doing, though, is still panicking about your uni choice after Results Day last week. Is my uni city far away enough from home? Is the nightlife any good? What’s the dating scene like? Or how cheap are cocktails? So if your impending uni panic is affecting your ability to have fun this weekend, maybe you just need a bit of help on which Russell Group uni you should actually be going to.

The silly little plans in your diary for this weekend say a lot about your vibe and, more importantly, which Russell Group uni you should be packing off to in September.

So, plan a bank holiday weekend and we’ll tell you which Russell Group uni you should be going to
