Which uni should I go too?

I want to go to either Liverpool John Moores or University of Chester but I can’t decide. Any advice or opinions on these unis would be appreciated. Thanks.

Have a look at the courses you are interested in either online or looking at their prospectuses - the content, style of teaching, assessment - to see which one suits you more. I would also recommend attending open days so you can visit the univerisity and the city, look at the facilities available, meet the lecturers and talk with current students about how they are finding the course and what they hope to do with it.

Presumably you have offers from both?

On what basis did you shortlist them?

Have you (re)visited them?

You have until May to decide, there's absolutely no rush.

Hi @Emmajade98 :hi:

Its zoology, and I was wondering how likely you are to get into your first choice accommodation? And if the semi catered could be adapted from lunch and dinner 5 days a week, to something less?

Hi Emmajade98,

My advice is to compare the courses - are there any modules which really strike you? Have you evaluated how expensive each place is? What's the city life like in both places? Have you looked at societies/clubs/extracurricular opportunities at both? :smile:
