Uni Student Support Squad

Got my marks back for my lit review... 85% woohoo!

I start uni again in 4 weeks I'm really excited. Though right now I don't know how I'll afford my text books.

@redhead woohoo! We're all here to support you on your uni journey As for textbooks, uni specific Facebook groups sometimes have people selling them second-hand, otherwise there's always the library copies. Orrrr I know for most of my units, the previous edition of the same textbook is usually totally fine (and much cheaper!)

Like @redhead I’m reall excited to be going back to uni in 4 weeks, but also really nervous. I have a lot on my plate at the moment with work and stuff, so it will be interesting to see how I cope when the study becomes full-on. Hopefully I will do okay.

@mrmusic good luck with your studies!

Wishing everyone who's starting back at school / uni good luck!

Just remember that anxiety and nerves can build up a little bit before our first day back so make sure you're keeping up with your self-care strategies

Thanks @redhead you too!

@mrmusic good luck!

@redhead I'm sure you have but have you had a look at second hand books? They can still be super expensive although sometimes there are fb groups where people sell them pretty reasonably

@lokifish wow well done on the lit review!

Can't believe how quickly the holidays have gone by

I got all the classes I wanted, yay!

@redhead good luck with uni I got really lucky with mine and found a notice on the notice boards selling some of the textbooks I needed, maybe someone at your uni will be selling yours (of course, I still didn't buy any until halfway through my unit, sometimes uni libraries have them online (free ) so that can be an option too

AWESOME @lokifish!

I found out the textbooks I was worried about was just recommended reading so I'll probably just get them from the library if I need to. I went to the uni shop today and I only need 1 book. It was out of stock so it's been ordered.

Only 3 weeks to go .
