A Day in the Life of a Cambridge University Student

If you've ever wondered what a typical day in the life of a Cambridge University student is like, I'm here to give you the lowdown. In this post, I'll share my typical routine and tell you about everything from how long it takes me to get ready in the morning (hint: not very long) to what I do with all my free time!

The alarm goes off at 7 am on a Wednesday morning.

• Get up early.
• Make sure you have everything you need for the day.
• Get to the bus stop on time.
• Take a trip to the library, where you can spend some time learning about all things academic or just sitting and relaxing with your favourite books!

Shower, breakfast and head out of the house by 8 am.

• Shower, breakfast and head out of the house by 8 am.
• The importance of showering and getting dressed in the morning.
• What to eat for breakfast if you're on a budget.

Hop on the bus to campus, which takes 10 minutes.

The bus is the most common way to get around Cambridge. It's free, so you don't have to worry about paying for transport and there are stops close by most colleges. You can find the route on their website and it's quite easy to follow once you know where you're going!

Arrive at 9 am and make my way to the English Faculty building.

You may be wondering how exactly I get to the English Faculty building. The answer is that it depends on what mode of transportation I'm in the mood for and/or have time for at any given moment.

I can take one of three buses from my house: bus #11, which stops right outside my front door; bus #819, which passes by on Parker's Piece Road; or bus #27A from King's Parade through Cambridge city centre before heading into town via Trumpington Street (a route known affectionately among locals as "the Trumpington Flit").

If I don't want to wait at an unfamiliar stop or pay extra money for a taxi ride home after class ends, then biking would seem like a good option--but only if it isn't raining too hard! Otherwise, there are plenty of great indoor spaces where students can study without getting wet (e.g., book rooms).

Lectures start at 10 am and finish at 11 am.

Lectures start at 10 am and finish at 11 am. You can find your way to the English Faculty building, which is on Sidgwick Avenue. The lecture hall will be labelled with the name of the professor and his/her subject of choice, such as "English Literature". If you are not sure where to go, just ask someone! There are also many other libraries around Cambridge if you need one closer than this one: The Houghton Library (which houses some rare manuscripts and books) and The Sidney Sussex College Library

University Library opens up at 11 am and I head inside to study for an hour or two.

The University Library opens up at 11 am and I head inside to study for an hour or two. The library has everything a student needs: books, journals, databases and other resources. Students can also use computers to access the internet and study in the book room.

Lunchtime! I grab food from one of the dining halls, sit on a bench in front of Jesus Green or wander over to Queens' College gardens.

When you are hungry, there are plenty of options for lunch. You can grab something from one of the dining halls (there's one in every college) or pick up something at a cafe or restaurant. There are also several parks and gardens around Cambridge where you can sit down with a sandwich or salad from Tesco Express and enjoy the weather.

The Fitzwilliam Museum has its own restaurant as well--it serves meals all day long, so if you are looking for something quick and easy during your break between classes or just want to grab some food before heading back home for the weekend, this is an excellent place to go!

Back to campus for afternoon lectures from 2 pm - 4 pm, then off again for another session in the library until 5 pm - 6 pm or so depending on how much work is left to do!

In the afternoon, you'll be back on campus for lectures from 2 pm - 4 pm. After that, it's back off again for another session in the library until 5 pm - 6 pm or so depending on how much work is left to do!

A typical day in the life of a Cambridge University student is jam-packed with work but also time for relaxation too!

The typical life of a Student has a lot of work to do, but they also need to relax and have fun. They can't be studying all the time because that would make them stressed out and unhappy. So, students get breaks from their studies every now and then so they can do something else instead of just sitting at home reading books or writing essays all day long.

A Day at Cambridge University as a Student.

So there you have it! A Day at Cambridge University as a Student. The University of Cambridge is a great one to study. It may sound like a lot of work, but trust me when I say that you won't regret it. You'll make lifelong friends, discover new passions and get some fantastic memories to take with you on your journey through life.
