i have applied to Russel group unis and two non -Russel group unis and had an offer from them all . however i really love the course and the feel of the non-russel group uni . i don't know whether to choose it as it would prove to be a disadvantage to me when choosing a job ?

You should choose the one you like with the course you want to study the most. There are many universities that are non-Russell and rank higher than many universities in that group.

Seriously, write the pros and cons, including how well you think each course and environment will suit you. Are the courses accredited?

I don't suppose even the snobbiest of employers would object to someone picking Bath over Liverpool, for example

optometry at Aston university

Which degree? I'm a teacher [selective school] and many students choose non-RG for courses such as Engineering where 'hands-on' experience will put you ahead of the crowd.

St. Andrews, Bath, Loughborough, SOAS, etc. are all great universities that aren't part of the RG.
It doesn't matter.

You don't have to go to a RG uni, there's good universities that aren't RG. Aston isn't one of them, however.

Manchester and Bristol . having a hard time deciding between bristol and aston
(Original post by harrysbar)
Wouldn't matter for optometry - especially considering hardly any Russell group unis even offer it (only Manchester, I think)
