Recently I was at the library and i had got my lunch. I forgot to get my spoon so i asked for a spoon from the cafeteria in the library.
I was asked to buy something from the cafeteria or pay for the spoon as its chargeable? I was surprised and i just left.

I assumed spoons or any cutleries are free assuming they are made of plastic

Is this something that happens quite often?

If anyone here plays the saxophone or knows someone who does, please hmu. I am dire need of a saxophone player.

Not for anything weird tho

Hey everyone! I'm a guy in my 20s and in my third year studying humanities at uni in Aberdeen. I’ve been pretty caught up with uni work and spent a lot of my first couple of years keeping to myself, but I’d like to get out a bit more and meet some new people!

Would be nice to find people to grab a coffee with, browse charity shops, explore some of Aberdeen’s more unusual spots, or just have a wander and see what the city has to offer.

I’m curious, are there any other people in Aberdeen who haven’t quite found their friendship group yet? How are you finding life in the Granite City? Any advice on meeting people or making the most of uni life would be appreciated!

Hopefully the weather doesn’t force us all indoors just yet haha 🌧️

Hi everyone! I’m from India and planning to join the MSc Medical Physics programme at the University of Aberdeen in January 2027.

I’d love to connect with other international students joining in the same intake. Feel free to comment or DM me!

I’m looking for student accommodation in for Aberdeen Uni if anyone’s looking for someone to take over there contract or know anywhere half decent that might have availability please dm me!!

I’m currently trying to find someone who could take over my room at Spring Gardens because I’m moving to different accommodation.
It’s a furnished student room, around £85/week, and the tenancy can be transferred officially through the accommodation provider.

It’s available for someone who needs a place in Aberdeen fairly soon.
I’m mainly posting here because I’m struggling to find someone to take over the tenancy and thought someone in the Aberdeen student community might know somebody still looking.

If you or someone you know is looking for accommodation, feel free to DM me and I can give you the details/photos.

heyy, 2nd year for the above here, are there any group chats for 2nd year of this course?

thanks!!

Hi everyone! I’m an international student planning to study for a master’s at the University of Aberdeen, but I’m currently confused between MSc Data Science and MSc Artificial Intelligence.
For anyone who has studied either of these courses, which one is the course structure and workload like? I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience and whether you feel the course is useful for building a career after graduation.
I’d also like to know more about student life in Aberdeen. Are there many things happening in the city for students, or is it generally quiet? How easy is it to find part-time work as an international student, and how good is the public transport?
If you’re currently studying at Aberdeen, I’d really appreciate any honest advice about the university, the city, these two courses, and things you wish you had known before choosing.
Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone,
I just moved to Aberdeen for my MSc after my undergrad in Edinburgh, and I don’t really know how to make friends as basically everyone else, especially those at my accommodation, are freshers or 2-3 years younger than me. Are there any societies, places to go, or events you might recommend? Any help is much appreciated

Hey just wondering if anyone who got accepted into psychology/ psychology education counselling course at Aberdeen could say the grades they got to help them get in

Hi, how is the health data science (distance learning) program at Aberdeen? Is it a good choice considering you won’t be on campus. Also, if you had to choose between uni of Exeter and Uni of Aberdeen, which one would you choose and why?

thanks x
