Our at-a-glance guide to the University of East Anglia

The University of East Anglia campus is just a couple of miles from the centre of Norwich, though you might wonder why anyone would ever venture off campus: the 320 landscaped acres boast excellent sports facilities, bars and cafes, and the Sainsbury centre for visual arts, not to mention some striking 1960s architecture. No wonder, then, that the students are happy bunnies: in the 2009 national student satisfaction survey, the overall satisfaction rating was 90%. An excellent reputation and a wide mix of courses probably helps to impress. The university prides itself on being at the forefront of green awareness, and is meeting its energy needs met via the recently completed on-campus biomass generating plant.

Fees
£3,290 for the majority of full-time undergraduate courses in 2010-11. Fees for students studying physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, and nursing and midwifery will continue to be covered by the NHS students grant unit. The first years of the science with a foundation year programme and the medical foundation year programme will cost £1,285.

Bursaries
£600 for students in receipt of the full grant and £300 for students in receipt of a partial grant. Scholarships (some based on academic excellence) of up to £4,000 are available.

The union hosts top-name bands and regular club nights.
