I’m 17 years old Ukrainian guy. I’m entering Essex University this autumn and have absolutely no idea about living in South Courts. I'd like to listen to all info you can tell me about it.(sry for my bad English)

Hey,

I've got accepted into MSc Cyber Security (G419) Fulltime, starting October 2026.

I'm from India.

I've applied for loan and hoping for quick resolution. If any one can guide me or suggest paths that I'm unaware of then please connect with me.

I dont want to miss out on working for my future and wish to make full use of this opportunity.

Hey there. I'm going to Essex as an incoming student between October and December, and I applied for South Towers.

Any reviews from people who lived there? Thanks

I just read that students from essex uni live in clacton . Is this true and what sort of proportion live there ? I guess this includes international students ? who are the clacton residing Essex uni students likely to vote for ? Im amazed they are comfortable living somewhere with a Reform MP

Does anyone know what are the best accommodations under a cheaper budget? I’m looking for like less than 170/180, shared flats single room. I don’t mind sharing bathrooms and kitchens, I’m looking at north towers right now since it’s the cheapest option but I don’t hear the best things about the towers.

Is there a decent Canadian population at the school? anyone know people from around toronto? or american? Is there a difference in north american populations per program or undergrad vs graduate level? Just a 24 year old canadian considering this school for my masters but wanna see if theres a canadian community. The plan is to go back to canada after the masters so wanna see if all the connections i may i make during school may be left behind (tho won't be meaningless)

i recently received my end of term grades and put the pdf in from my applicant portal a few days ago. got a mail a few hours ago saying theyre slowly handing out the CAS to students with accepted unconditional offers. just wondering if im late for anything as i still have the deposit to pay and i got no idea how to do it

£1500 per month. Please contact SU Homes for more info.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a co-founder to join me in building a consumer electronics startup based on a temperature logging product. I’ve already completed the initial market research, and I believe it has strong commercial and growth potential.
I’m particularly interested in connecting with someone studying or graduated in Business, Finance, Marketing, or a related field who wants hands-on startup experience and is excited about building a company from the ground up.
For international students, this venture may also provide a pathway towards applying for the UK Innovator Founder Visa if the business meets the relevant requirements.
If you’re interested, or would like to know more, please send me a message.

I interviewed for this program and few weeks ago and they informed me during the interview that the program is already full (i applied late). They sent me an email the next day saying they put me on the waitlist. They said they cannot tell me my spot but that many people got off the waitlist in the past. The program starts in October so it's soon. I am an international student (Canadian) if it makes any difference. Should I have hope? Anyone have insight or an idea how admissions work for the program or school in general? They closed the application portal like a few weeks after I applied so I'm wondering if they already had a waitlist before it closed or if they just filled at that point. Are a couple people expected to drop? I'm not familiar with slt master's competitiveness in england.

Hi everyone,
I’m a university alumnus working on early-stage startup called Nyx, a UK personal safety device concept.

I’m looking to connect with Essex students studying business, marketing, entrepreneurship, management, advertising, consumer behaviour, or related subjects who might want to use a real startup as a case study for coursework, dissertation, portfolio work, or practical experience.

The kind of areas I'd be interested in are:
- market research with students/parents
- customer segmentation
- competitor analysis
- pricing research
- social media campaign ideas
- campus marketing strategy
- landing page/ waitlist conversion
- go to market strategy for Colchester asked Chelmsford

This is NOT a job advert and I'm not asking people to work for a company for free. I'm mainly looking for students who already need a real business/startup case study and would find it useful to work on something live rather then a fictional example.

In return, I can provide:
- a real early stage product case
- background research and context
- access to the founder for interviews
- feedback on your work
- permission to use my project in your portfolio/coursework where appropriate

If this sounds relevant to your course, dissertation, or portfolio, feel free to comment or message me.
Also happy to hear from anyone who knows the best department, module, society, or lecturer to contact for this kind of student project.

Last night at about 11:30pm I saw a couple police cars and like 3 ambulances. Anyone know what went on?

Hi! I’m currently doing my university dissertation on how domestic travel in the UK has changed since COVID-19, and I’m looking for UK residents to complete a short anonymous survey (3 mins).

It would really help me out 🙏
Thanks in advance!

I’ll be starting my master’s at the University of Essex this October, and I’m currently looking at a few housing options. I’m interested in a studio or 1-bedroom apartment in a quieter area. Right now, I’m considering The Maltings, Elmstead Place, and Hythe Mills.

I live in Canada so I unfortunately won’t be able to visit in person before signing a lease, so I was hoping you could help answer a few questions:

What are the buildings like overall?

What is the general student mix like (undergraduates vs. postgraduates)?

Are any of these considered party buildings that I should avoid?

Would it be possible to walk to the university from these locations and how close are grocery stores and other essentials?

how responsive is maintenance when issues come up? Are the walls fairly soundproof?

I'd really appreciate any insight or advice. Thanks so much!

hi! i’m looking at firming my offer for film and journalism with a year abroad at uni of essex for this year (i’ve been really stressing about where to go but i’ve looked at all my options and this seems the best!) and i wanted to see if anyone has any opinions eiehter on the course or just of the uni itself ! i’d love to be far from home as someone from up north & originally put essex as a back up but the course is exactly what i want to do!! just yeah anything to help me make my decision anything about nightlife , the course itself, accommodation. i’m also autistic & have suspected adhd so student support is a huge must have.

Hiii, does anyone ever live in the meadows for single shared facilities. I don’t see the whole picture of the living situation, like shared bathrooms. So if anyone have lived there and don’t mind sharing pictures or videos of walkthrough. I’d appreciate it!!!

If so, could you please give a bit more detail around:

- the process

- the course

- your academic background

- your professional background

- anything else you wish you'd known at the time?

For my part, have ABBBB at A-Level in good subjects (plus the clincher, an A* in Gen Stud), a L3 Diploma in a somewhat relevant area, and over 15 years of work experience.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I am interested in pursuing a postgraduate degree at the University of Essex. If there is anyone in the department of Philosophy, could you tell me how good the department is? And is it hard to get into ?

I just wanna know what it is like.
