Where did that list of university names come from? It's pre 2012 at least?

https://www.gov.uk/check-a-university-is-officially-recognised/recognised-bodies and https://www.gov.uk/check-a-university-is-officially-recognised/listed-bodies are the official lists....or https://www.hesa.ac.uk/component/heicontacts/ if you want to exclude HE in FE colleges


It came from Havas who are partnering with us for the survey. I've passed this on to the survey owner, thanks for raising! :smile:

They should definitely know better - they've had someone from one of the misnamed universities speaking at their "how to win our awards" event last month http://www.havaspeople.com/events/how-to-win-a-heist-award-london/ :nope:

I suppose you'd be slightly proud. Not too proud though obviously. It's only Cambridge...

What are you going to study?

Sounds great. Although physics would be better.

I would love to have applied if I wasn't such a **** in school

Yeah, Physics is interesting but not really my cup of tea I guess

What year are you in? Or are you at uni now?

I'm on a "gap year". Just doing some extra studying.

Offer from UCL which is still great, probably will be firming. I'm too lazy for Cambridge anyway but wouldn't turn down the opportunity if I had tried hard enough in school.

No but I don't wanna deal with the bureaucratic bullcrap and paperwork dealing with a transfer either. The infrastructure and budgeting is horrendous, as well as the incompetent staff and the substandard student body...except for a few rare pearls who end up leaving anyway lol
I like my university a lot

Someone should travel the country and get real views/opinions from students in each university. Too often you hear about people disappointed with where they ended up
