When I was first looking at Universities, I had a look through university league tables, and I saw that Loughborough was very high. I decided to check out their website and booked myself for an open day. During the open day, I immediately knew that this was the place for me. The campus was spectacular, everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the facilities were excellent. I went with my gut instinct and I’m so glad that I did.

I always enjoyed science, especially chemistry and physics. I really enjoyed learning more about why things happen the way they do and how interactions at the atomic level affect our everyday life. I ended up choosing chemistry over physics as I really enjoyed the practical experiments and how ubiquitous it is in our everyday life.
