Research helps you make the right choice

MY university application process was not quick, but it was thorough and I am glad that I spent the time putting a lot of thought into it. I am very pleased with the offers because it has given me lots of confidence knowing that universities think I deserve a place.

Throughout the entire process, support has been available no matter which path, country or application process we were focusing on. We were given lots of guidance with writing our personal statements, which was invaluable for me in understanding the correct tone and what information I should include to really sell myself.

I found it useful that we were also given advice and a timeline to follow so we could manage our application process along with our everyday studies.

My advice for pupils starting the process would be to make sure you research universities. There’s so much information available and it can really help you narrow down the options and find the ones that are right for you.

It is also helpful to try and engage with your course of choice outside your formal studies so you can show your interest or experience in a certain field. For everyone, doing your best and keeping up with your academics is important because it gives you more options and choices.
