    200-220 UCAs points universities
    Ok I'm looking for good unis which meet the 200-220 entry requirements, so far I have picked the following universities to apply to which have those points

    Manchester Metropolitan University - Politics
    Sunderland University – Business and Management
    Hull University – Business Management
    Teeside University – Business Management
    Anglia Rusking University – Business Management

    Which one of those is the best university and do you have any other university recommendations which accept 200-220 UCAs points.


    Thanks a lot and please don't post spam

    Out of those I would say Anglia Ruskin (which campus?) and Man Met???

    York St John looks pretty tiny!

    I live in London and if I move I want to be able to access London from time to time for gigs and stuff.


    Anglia Rusking says it's in Cambridge, Chelmsford and SEEVIC? lol

    Man Met is based at the All Saints.

    I'm considering going for Man Met as the politics course looks like a piece of cake, nothing I don't know also it's 2 hours from London and I'm used to living in big cities.

    No way, I've think I've stared long enough at league tables as it is.

    York St John isn't that tiny and York is a nice city and not that far from London

    Anglia Ruskin - I think you could probably pick the campus, but I don't know what SEEVIC is? If you want to stay close to London, Chelmsford is only like 1hr on the train to central London so that would probably be best.

    Uni a piece of cake? Really? I hope it is

    Yeah Manchester is a big city and not that far!!

    Do you want to go into politics or business management though?

    Anyway, hope this helps!!!

    Neither do I! lol Chelmsford? thats not even on the uni league table!

    I don't want to go into anything, I'm just going to uni to have fun, I don't care about employability crap and stuff like that, I rather be the one employing, so any degree is good and I enjoy is fine with me.

    Yeah it kinda helped

    PS It already takes me 1 hour to get to central London and I live here! lol

    York is atleast 7 hours away from London!
    It's a nice campus though, walked past it the other day and it has some nice buildings - right near the city walls aswell so there is easy access to York which is a beautiful city.

    If you only want to be near London just for access for gigs, you should consider that a lot of gigs go on in Manchester/Sheffield/Leeds and York isn't that far away from them. Plenty of direct trains.

    You could look at Leeds Met/Liverpool Hope/Sheffield Hallam? I'm sure they're around that grade range

    Also OP I highly recommend Hull as a choice, I live fairly near there and the University is so lovely and the people of Hull (despite the bad press) are very nice - great nightlife too (not that I go to clubs... :rolleyes:). I don't know about the other Uni's but Hull is a good Uni

    But the gigs I go to are the underground metal gigs that tend to happen in London.

    I will have a look at Leeds Met/Liverpool Hope/Sheffield Hallam

    Yeah but the course I picked at Hull is based at Scarborough so it isn't really at the main campus, i read somewhere that it feels really isolating with only 1600 students

    No, Chelmsford is part of Anglia Ruskin, it's one of the campuses so it wouldn't be on the league table by it's self.

    You don't want to go into anything, yet you want to be the one employing? Ok...

    York is only 2 hours (roughly) by train from London and I have been talking about trains ie. Chelmsford to London...

    I really love York ^__^ And I live in London, it's not 7 hours away. It takes just over 2 hours by train to get there.
