HSBC had a pretty good interest rate going whenever I was opening up an account last year, but in retrospect I would probably go with someone else. The thing is, if you want a really good interest rate then you are best to go for a Cash ISA, but the ISA's do not allow quick withdrawal of money so they're probably inappropriate for you. Most of the time you have to compromise a high interest rate in return for accessibility, and accessibility is a lot more important when you're a student.
Go onto the bank websites and ask for information to be posted out to you. I would very strongly advise that you go for a bank that has an office near where you will be living while at university, because otherwise things can be very inconvenient.
