My 5 current choice

I have sent off my UCAS and have gotten some of my offers and unsure which one I should make my first choice and which one I should make my insurence choice. Below are my five, i'm going to do media production.

University of Lincoln
University of Derby
De Montfort University
Staffordshire University
Northampton University

Have you looked closely at the course structure (compulsory modules, chances to take elective modules etc) and the locations? It's really a question of personal preference - nobody can say what's right for you.

Is a BSc course more respected than a BA?

Not Staffs cus Stoke is the most un-student orientated city ever!! :smile:

I'd personally recommend going on the open days...that's how I decided where I wanted go...get a feel for the city as a whole and not just the uni. And look at the course structures...they are probably more or less similar but modules and flexibility to choose other modules can vary quite abit.

I wouldn't go to De Montfort but then I'm probably put off by their adverts (and if their adverts are rubbish, it's hardly good news for their media department). That said it's meant to have a good student radio station.

Derby isn't exactly the best student town...

I'd choose Lincoln over Derby if only for the ice cream.

Lincoln is a lovely place. Not sure about the rest, never been to Northampton. You should seriously consider going to some open days!

having graduated from the university of derby in media i would personally avoid it, or at least only have it as a last resort

I have also had an offer from derby, i need 240 points however that must be from only my A-levels so it would be 3 Cs

Northampton uni does pretty well for itself, but the town is quite monotonous with nothing much to do!

I've lived here for 12 years. It's fairly big, but it's really not student-orientated. The town centre and everything within a 2 miles radius is constantly gridlocked. It's just boring. But I would recommend coming down for an open day.

I would say however that Lincoln University area looks a little better than De Montfort.

I see. Are you going to visit the other 2 unis? Would be a good idea. I've been to see all 5 of my unis and it's important if you are unsure of where to go.
