true stories
At the heart of true, we’re all about
helping students find the things they
love and discover their edge. Here are
a few of our students talking about
their true experience
“We’ve got every kind of space to hang
out in, a sports bar setting for the footie,
a brilliant communal kitchen for our
‘Come Dine With Me’ attempts and the
gym on site is a real bonus. We have
loads of fun without even needing to
leave home!”
Daniel Moore, true Glasgow
“I’m learning a lot more about exercise
and nutrition, and intend to keep up my
healthy lifestyle when I start work. Also,
mixing with so many different nationalities
and cultures has really helped my
confidence - I can hold my own talking to
anyone now!”
Nadejda Spassova, true Glasgow
“Everything we do is for our students,
and our students make us true”
- the mantra by which every member of
the true team lives.
“true attracts students from all over the
world, so I’ve made friends across the
globe, and being able to swap rooms with
students in other true cities when I’m not
studying is a brilliant idea!”
Sergej Ponomarenko, true Newcastle
