Choosing a university
Things to consider
- Do you want to do a general biology or biological sciences course to keep your options open, or narrow your focus into something more specific such as environmental science or healthcare?
- Does the course have a good reputation for teaching quality?
- What do current students say about the course/university? Open days are a good opportunity to talk to current students.
- Do you want to stay close to home or fly the nest and move somewhere completely different?
- Do you prefer a campus university where most thing are in one place?
- Do you like the convenience of city living, where you can easily reach shops and entertainment, but where the university buildings maybe more spread out?
Making applications
Once you have made your selection, you must apply through UCAS for entry to a full-time BSc course. For other types of course and part-time study it is best to consult the individual institutions directly.
