Leeds is once again buzzing with excitement as thousands of students arrive in the city to begin university life.
From suitcases and storage boxes to parents making one final trip to the car, the city has been transformed as freshers move into halls and student accommodation ahead of the new academic year.
For many - the move marks the beginning of a completely new chapter, and their first time living away from home.
And for those arriving with a mixture of nerves and excitement, here are the things nobody tells you about Leeds before moving here for university.
1. Leeds city buses
You can get on any of the 20’s buses from the city centre to get to Leeds University campus and Headingley campus. Don't forget to ask for a student single if you have a student card! | Gerard Binks
2. Woodhouse Moor
On a sunny day after university, hundreds of students flock to Woodhouse Moor to sit and have an ice cream or a beverage, or to play some football. | Steve Riding
3. Moving into second year housing
You don’t need to sort out your house or living situation for second year in the first few weeks of university, it can wait until after Christmas! | James Hardisty
4. Ilkley Moor is on the doorstep
Leeds isn’t far from the Peak District or the Yorkshire Dales, take yourself on a day out to Ilkley and go for a hike in the Moors. You don’t need to go to the pub everyday! | Greg Wright
5. What is "Jimmy's?"
If someone says they’re going to ‘Jimmy’s,’ they’re going to St James’ Hospital, not to a man’s house! | Simon Hulme
6. Affordable things to do in Leeds
There are so many free things to do in the city centre, not everything has to cost money, like exploring Leeds Art Gallery and most of the Royal Armouries Museum. | Google Reviews
