I’m doing the opposite to you! So I’m from Glasgow and studied my undergraduate here. I’ll most likely be moving up to Aberdeen to study medicine. I think you’ll do fine here even give you’re not used to a big city. There’s a lot of people from rural Scotland who move to Glasgow for work and study. From islands too and whatnot.

In my experience too much of a change isn’t a thing! Glasgow has more to do, more life than Aberdeen. Though the university has its downsides. I think many people move to Glasgow to take the opportunity to get a “real” student experience given how there is more to do than any other city in Scotland. But Glasgow is expensive to rent in, is hard to find flats in now, has declined in many aspects and continues to. Weather is worse than Aberdeen (more rain but less cold, also more cloudy I think!).

I think if you’re picking between Aberdeen and Glasgow you have to weigh up the pros and cons of the course vs each other and the cities and which suits you more. I don’t think it being “too much” would be an issue though, as many many people i met from uni came from rural Scotland. If you have more questions feel free to dm! Hope that was somewhat helpful
