hello to everyone its been a while since i was on here....any way here's my dilemma 5 months until i hopefully :) start uni but im a bit confused about which one to go to. iv narrowed it down to 2 and they are UCE ( birmingham) and keele ( not many have heard of that one)

I'm in wolverhampton and don't really want to move away because of the money so i wil commute by car. Keele is about 45 minutes from me and UCE about 30 minutes. If i go to keele i will be spending quite a lot of money on petrol a week but i dont really want to catch 2 buses and a train to get there.

Keele is a better uni overall ( according to rankings) than UCE. But i'm just worried what the people are like at UCE as in are there many people like me who don't go out and drink etc etc.

any help or anythin would be much appreciated rolleyes.gif

it depends on u? are u willing to learn , and that bit extra, alot of kids from colleges expect to have there hands held at uni, and end up failing...............ur best of looking at the course and also stayin close to home. and thers no point in lookin for ppl who dont sdrink etc, cos unis are always mixed most students drink n smoke and you just do what u want, it shouldnt matter if u dont go out..

good luck tho

definitely go to keele!!!

1)Better uni

2) Worth the petrol money

3) U can always apply for a maintanance loan to help with your travelling costs...books...food...etc

4)UCE is full of ppl who get up to no good (no offence to ppl who do go there)

5) You'll be more recognised if u go to Keele to...so well done for getting an offer :)

i know how u feel, i'm in kinda the same situation :) Good Luck deciding!!

^^^^^

It's not that bad blush.gif

But, i guess once again it depends on what course your going to do, i chose this uni because:

1. i wanted to stay close to home

2. im doing a random combined degree

and most importantly..

3.gives me an opportunity to do a Pgc after my degree in primary teaching which i would love to do, so fingers crossed, ill be able to do it.

I think its hard to choose a Uni, let alone your course and everything else, but im sure itll work out for you :) .

    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
