yes we got one brother that I know here on the forums that attends the uni, but I rather not disclose his name, have to ask him first loq

[Green Bird]

Salaam
Thanks a lot for your help people, I'll pass it on. Going to Uni's no easy decision...

Asalamu Alaikum

What will he be studying? There might be other unis offering better education in his chosen field.

[Green Bird]

Inshallah he's hoping to do medicine. Going away from home is faaaaaaaaaar from ideal , i dont even know if he's willing to do it, but if the situation does arise it would be better for him to go somewhere like lecister where there is a prominant muslim population...

[Green Bird]

mistake-sorry

[Green Bird]

umm yeah he'll be going to uni in 2006 inshallah-Thanks for the detailed description on buildings and all it can have a depressing effect as for the isoc bit-Leciester just seems a good idea, beacuse if he is putting himself in the vulnerable position of living away from home, being surrounded by like minded people can make all the difference.

I've already applied to the Uni of Leicester (got an offer) and is also my first choice.

Great university but it depends on his chosen field which in this case is medicine. Leicester uni has a solid reputation in medicine and was the best choice for medicine in 2003 if my memory serves correctly.

Yes it does have a good reputation for medicine - in fact, its one of the best in UK. The other thing about being vulnerable when away from home is also very true. Therefore in that sense it is a good thing coming to Leicester because of the Muslim communities etc. but there is still the fitnah going on within universities - don't underestimate that. Just because there might be muslims who go there does not mean there won't be many kuffaar who are involved in Haram. If you need more info, let me know Insha'Allaah.

[Genius]

There's alot of fitna in Leicester despite the number of Muslims.

Kadafi congratulations on getting accepted for Medicine, you must be real good competition is fierce.

[Khattab]

Mashallah brother Kadafi good to hear, may Allah (SWT) make you successful in this life and in the hereafter, ameen.

[kadafi]

Jazaka'Allahu for the duas bros.

My chosen field is not medicine (dislike it) but Computer Science European Degree (which means that I'll spend the 4th year in an overseas university -- preferably Holland :) )

[Green Bird]

Mashallah-sounds cool :thumbs_up
