University rated among ‘healthiest’

RESEARCH: The University of York has been named the third healthiest in the UK in a poll based on student living.

The research, from website Mystudenthalls.com, has ranked institutions based on access to amenities, as well as how unions cater for wellbeing. The University of Nottingham was rated top, followed by Edinburgh.

It comes after a survey which was released by the NUS that found one in five students now identified as teetotal, continuing a shift towards healthy living for university students.
