​4 Top Tips for Students Living in Bristol

​Whether you are just about to embark upon your first year of university life, or else have already completed an undergraduate degree and are now focused on postgraduate study, student life in the thriving and progressive city of Bristol is truly like no other.

So, with this in mind, here for your information and to help you settle in, are the top four tips for students who are living in Bristol.

1.   University Halls are Not the Only Option

The first piece of advice on this comprehensive list for Bristolian students is that, unless of course, university halls are right up your street, there are plenty of other options when it comes to student accommodation.

The most prominent areas and the best places for students to live in Bristol that are most suitable are the Fishponds, Bedminster, Clifton and Gloucester Road. Local Bristolian estate agents such as Ocean, Bristol Digs, Accommodation Unlimited and The Letting Game are great places to start looking.

University halls, however, are the best choice for accommodation if you are focused on making as many new friends in as short a time as possible, and mean you never have to think about separate bills. Additionally, university halls in Bristol all have specially hired cleaners and even offer catered halls if you either don’t want to cook, or you simply don’t know how.

2.   Use Public Transport as Often as You Can

Naturally, as a student, it is certainly not as if you will be swimming in money and as a result, when it comes to transport and getting around your student city, it truly does come down to the cheaper, the better.

In terms of national transport in and out of the city, trains are obviously the most convenient, but unless you are aware of the exact dates far in advance they are definitely the most expensive choice. In contrast, by far the most affordable option to travel in and out of the city is to choose the Megabus.

If you are savvy and choose a less convenient and usually, earlier time of day to travel, it is perfectly possible to buy a ticket from Bristol to another major city for as little as £3 one way and £7 for a return journey. For slightly more money but, admittedly, a greater level of comfort, the National Express also offers reductions in ticket prices if you are able to travel early in the morning or indeed late at night.

3.   Time Management is Crucial

As a new student, you will naturally (and entirely understandably) want to get involved in as many curricular, or more pertinently, extracurricular activities, groups and clubs as possible, and this is indeed a fantastic approach to student life.

However, with the countless new and exciting opportunities you will be presented with throughout your university experience, and even more so in the first few months, it can sometimes be hard to manage your different commitments.

Time management is, therefore, an incredibly important skill to hone and improve before you begin, and if you do feel as if you are struggling to balance your studies with your other university commitments, never hesitate to contact Bristol Student Support.

In terms of improving your time management skills, the following techniques should serve to help:
  • When you feel overwhelmed, try and stick to one task at a time
  • Identify your own personal distraction triggers and try to avoid them
  • Tackle smaller and more manageable tasks before attempting larger ones
  • Work to establish a tailormade routine which works for you
  • Utilize your time properly by taking short and regular breaks

4.  
Be Sure to Make Your Free Time Count

Finally, as highlighted above, student life can be incredibly fast-paced and the more commitments you have, the less free time you will have.

It is for this reason that you must absolutely strive to make the most of what little free time you do have and ideally, take just an hour or so to spend in your own company as a way to recharge your batteries.

If you are someone who enjoys learning and enveloping yourself in culture and community, then be sure to check out your new hometown’s iconic sites and tourist destinations such as Ashton Court Estate, which is less than two miles from the middle of Bristol.
​
Other notable attractions and sights in and around the middle of Bristol include the Clifton Suspension Bridge, SS Great Britain, The Harbourside, MShed and the newly arranged Banksy Tour.
