The insider's guide to choosing a university: by students, for students
Product Description
The Virgin 2010 guide is the only university guide to offer a uniquely students' eye view of what it's like to study at a particular university.
As well as hard facts and practical information on every UK university - such as official ratings for teaching, statistics on where graduates end up and employment prospects by subject - the guide is also packed with useful information such as what the social scene is like, how much living costs are likely to be and what the student profile at a particular university is really like.
With a comprehensive entry on every UK university, the Virgin guide contains all the information and advice potential undergraduates will need to choose the best university for them.
With average student debt topping £12,000, choosing the right university has never been more crucial. The Virgin guide will make the choice easy.

A 'must have' for all potential Uni students (and their parents). Written in a clear and entertaining style that will not put off teenagers.

Very helpful guide which is different to all the others. It puts emphasis on what the students themselves think about the universities rather than just looking at league tables. This book was really useful for me as a prospective university student.

Format:Paperback
The Virgin Guide to Universities was recommended to me by a friend whose daughter had used it to great effect the previous year. It was the best present I could have bought for my daughter who was in a real muddle about which universities to apply for and what course to go for. This guide stands out for its no-nonsense, honest and well-researched information. I really liked the way it was laid out so you could dip in and dip out and didn't feel swamped by it.The opening chapter on how to write the personal statement was practical too. My daughter liked the "what's it really like" views of current students as it made the whole overwhelming process seem alot more human and manageable.Excellent.
