Hi there,

It's great to hear you are searching for somewhere to study!

Finding and narrowing down universities can be a tough task, and takes a lot of time, dedication, and research. I've found some resources that might help you, linked below:

Complete University Guide
The Guardian - League Table
WhatUni?
UCAS

There are obviously a lot of resources out there, but hopefully these help!

Once you find some universities you are interested in, I'd make sure to look out for UniBuddy and 'Chat to a Student' pages. These enable you to chat to current students, allowing you to learn more about their experience and to find out if it would be a good fit for you too.

Best of luck,

Hi there!

I would recommend looking at our Sociology course! We also offer a range of combinations alongside Sociology which may interest you.

I studied Sociology at Liverpool Hope and it was great! I had an amazing time. The tutors were so supportive and it was the best experience, I could talk about it all day with nothing but positive things to say!

Liverpool Hope is a campus based university based about 20 minutes from the city centre, so you get both the quiet peaceful green spaces and the busy lively city as as well. This link will show some of our statistics surrounding rankings.

We are a small university with about 5-6000 students so you really get a personal feel with tutors and course mates, and obviously we are based in ne of the best student cities!

Any questions please do reach out!
Good luck on your search :smile:

For an unbiased review check out a Universities report with the Office for Students, its a well rounded student centred view of the quality of a provider. Don't forget on-site and virtual open days.

Some great Uni's recommended here, I did my BA (Hons) Sociology at Manchester Met, got a 1st, the best teacher's were life changing.
