Newcastle University
The University of Newcastle upon Tyne is located in the largest city in the north of England and dates back to the mid-19th century, when it was associated with the College of Medicine in Durham University.
Newcastle University today is a hugely successful institution with more than 100 subjects in three faculties and many schools.
The three faculties at Newcastle University include:
• Humanities and Social Sciences
• Medical Sciences
• Science, Agriculture and Engineering
Newcastle University Campus Life
Newcastle University also comes with a number of interesting distractions from the lecture theatre, including the Newcastle Union Society several, museums and galleries, some peaceful green areas and plentiful cafes and restaurants. The town centre is also close by and is one of the liveliest in the UK.
The City of Newcastle
Newcastle harks back to the days of the Romans and the original city walls are still visible in parts. Today, Newcastle is as trendy and stylish as it gets, with amazing Victorian architecture, specialist shops, fine dining, traditional pubs, snazzy bars, legendary nightclubs, and many theatres and cinemas.
Student Loans
Newcastle University is allowed to charge new full-time students up to £3,000 a year for tuition fees from September 2006. Many students will apply for a student loan to cover their tuition fees and day to day living costs. Student loans are the best option for borrowing money for college as interest rates are traditionally low and repayments don't start until graduated students are in work and are earning over £15,000.
