There are many great reasons for your son or daughter to consider university. Here are some of them...

Fulfilling potential
Your son or daughter can study subjects they are passionate about, developing key skills that will serve them well throughout life, in work and in the wider world.

Living away from home
The chance to live away from home builds confidence and independence, as students learn to cook, clean and cope in a host of different situations.

Friends for life
University helps young people develop socially, studying alongside students from all over the world and making friendships that will last for life.

New experiences
As a university student, your child will have plenty of opportunities to take part in a wide range of sports, societies and clubs.

Career prospects
Graduates are proven to earn more, get promoted faster and have greater job satisfaction. They will quickly catch up and overtake those who started work straight from school. Over a lifetime, a graduate is expected to earn an average of £100,000 more than someone without a degree.
