Before you choose

  • Talk to a careers/guidance adviser.
  • Visit www.ucas.com to get more information and compare the courses and universities that interest you. When you apply, you can select up to five choices.

  • Do your research carefully – check out university websites, as well as UCAS, so you get a real feel for the place.
