Select an item from the list:
“More Money, a better career and a great social life!”
  • As a graduate, you are likely to earn up to 50% more over your lifetime than someone with only A Levels.
  • This is especially true for women who can increase their earnings considerably by gaining a higher level qualification
  • You are more likely to progress quickly in your chosen career if you have a higher level qualification.
  • You will gain skills that will help you in all areas of your life.
  • Employers like graduates – they like the skills you have gained.
  • You will have the opportunity to meet students from many different backgrounds, make friendships that stay with you for life - you may even meet your future partner.
  • Have a great social experience with parties, clubs and societies to suit everyone’s tastes.
  • Students don’t seem to regret the experience of university – only that they could have worked a little harder at times.
