How to Choose a University

Here is my guide, fresh off the experience-line. In it I describe how to choose a university and why, as well as personal experience and tips.

Note: don't choose a university based on its rank, choose it on how comfortable you feel there!

@PaulSLambeth What aboot Haggis?

[MissesTwishes]

Great video, thanks! I used to live in Southampton (twice) and it's my second choice, my first choice being East Anglia. I'm applying for Environmental Science, I can't wait. My other uni's are Leeds, Plymouth and Nottingham. I'm excited to start applying :D

And yes I agree...comfort over rank - definitely!

[PaulSLambeth]

Yes :D Comfort over rank. Don't forget about Scotland, to anyone else watching. It's more than just kilts, although ceilidhs (ceilidhean) are pretty fun. Plus it's, for the time being, cheaper for us English folk.
