Make the right choice for you
Deciding whether you want to go to uni or not is a big decision – and a personal one.
This decision affects your choice to go to college, what you study at college and where you'll live when you take the next step. We have guides to help you with each stage of the decision-making process, beginning with our guides on reasons to get a degree and different pathways you can take to get to uni.
