Choosing a Course
Considering which University is best for you?
We know that researching universities can be daunting. We hope these top tips will help you to focus on what is important. You may already have a good idea of the subject you want to study, or need help choosing a course. Either way – you’ll also need to decide WHERE you want to study it.
When researching universities, it is worth checking out university rankings and league tables. But do they tell the whole story?
Choosing a university is a big thing, and course aside, there are lots of different elements that go into the decision. Whether you choose a campus or city university, you’ll be spending years of your life there. For example, you might want to know what the location’s like...what it’s really like. You’ll want to know that the university you choose will help you achieve your career ambitions. You may have some specific support services in mind. For these things, and many more, rankings alone won’t give you the complete picture.
The best way to truly get a feel for the university is to visit, either by attending an open day or campus tour. But there are lots of other ways to help you shortlist too. We’ve put together some of the best ways to narrow down your choices.
