Plymouth couldn't be more nautical if it painted itself in blue and white stripes and pranced around belting out 'In the Navy'. As well as oozing maritime history – the Pilgrim Fathers set sail for the USA from here, as did Sir Francis Drake – the next generation has brought the surfing vibe to the city in bucket and spade loads...more detail There’s a tidalwave of career-angled courses – some on the kookier side of the tracks...more on academic The SU, when its not campaigning its knee-highs off against tuition fee increases or coordinating over 80 volunteer programmes, relaxes in the stonkingly modern Union building...more on the SU All things water-based are a big draw – they’ve splashed out (sorry, Push had to) £70,000 on some new sailing boats and it's the only uni in the UK to have its own diving centre...more on sports Only special needs and non-EU students are guaranteed places in halls and the student village is worth the fisticuffs...more on housing
