Loughborough vs Nottingham

So I need some help. Results day considering the situation was ok for me. The issue is I missed out on doing mechanical engineering with a year in industry at Nottingham but got offered a course in architectural environmental engineering instead. Loughborough was my insurance and I got accepted into mechanical engineering with a foundation year.

I am not sure which to choose as I like Nottingham as a city and university but prefer the course at Loughborough.

What should I do?

I'm pretty sure that Nottingham is only about half an hour away from Nottingham so it's a way of getting the best of both worlds. You can go to Loughbourgh and do the course that suits you but can go for nights out (when everything is back to normal) in Nottingham. You seem to like Loughbourgh as a uni more so would do better but like Nottingham's location. Best of luck with your decision

As for whether it’s worth doing a foundation year it partly depends on your grades. Do you mind saying what grades you got?

I got a BBC with a B in economics B in maths and C in physics. I am really lucky and happy that I have both of these opportunities but just want to make sure I am making the best choice for me.

If you prefer Nottingham as a uni.
Then i would recommend calling and asking about the foundation year, I think if they are willing to offer another course they might well offer this as well.

Unis have been asked to be flexible, so hopefully they can allow this.

Whatever you decide both are great unis!

Thanks, that in all honesty would be the best of both worlds. I will see if they consider me but if not ill accept Loughborough.

I think that's really sensible - Good Luck!

Good luck! let us know how it goes

So a lot of things are going on and now I’m even more confused. My CAG was an A B B with an A in maths which was what was required to get into the course I wanted to at Nottingham. The grade I got on the 13 August was B B C. The CAG is now going to be my final grade due to the backlash. I am in the process of changing my course from Architectural environment engineering to the foundation programme which required me to apply through clearing. Meaning I had to decline my offers.

I have no clue where I stand anymore as Loughborough can’t take me and Nottingham are currently reviewing my application.

I’m currently just sent an application for my original course and hopefully I’ll be accepted.

Edit: Loughborough can’t take me as I declined the Nottingham offer in order to obtain the foundation programme. Insurance only accepted when your firm rejects not the other way.
