Job title: Student Recruitment Team Leader

Degree: BA (Hons) International Business and Hispanic Studies

I combined the two A-Level subjects that I enjoyed the most to decide on a course. I looked at the prospectuses of universities that were far enough to move away but close enough to get home easily, then made a shortlist and attended open days where I even met one of my now best friends.

Degree: BA (Hons) English Language and Linguistics, MA Language Studies, PGCE (QTS) Primary Education

I was the first in my family to go to university and it was important to me to study something I enjoyed. To narrow down universities, I looked at the league tables for my subject then attended lots of open days to find what I wanted.

Degree: BA (Hons) International Business

I didn't know anyone who had been to university. My friends were set on their choices and stay local to our small village. I wanted to move away and be in a big city full of opportunities to make friends, study, and work. I used UCAS to choose a course and then explored the city myself.

Degree: BA Archeology and Anthropology

Finding the right university for me meant being on campus. Open Days and interviews gave me the chance to go and look for myself and I knew it was the right place when I first set foot there. The location, facilities, and the feel of the place was exactly what I wanted.

Degree: BSc (Hons) Business and Management with Professional Experience Year

I always knew I wanted to move away from home and experience a more industry-focused approach. I did my research and decided I wanted to move to the UK. I attended a few Open Days, online tours, and used social media to chat with students who helped me make my decision.

Degree: BA (Hons) French with Spanish

I knew I wanted to move out and live in halls so I made a shortlist of universities that had the right course and were far enough away. I went to every Open Day on that list to get a feel of the place before making my final decision as that was the most important factor for me.

Job title: Student Recruitment Assistant, East Lancashire

Degree: BSc (Hons) Zoology

I knew I loved animals and wanted to move away to study, but as I was the first in my family to go to university there wasn't much knowledge on how to get there. I made a shortlist for my course, visited an open day to see if it was for me, and made my decision on the train home.

Degree: BA (Hons) Broadcast Journalism 

I knew I wanted to go to university but didn't know what to study. I combined two subjects together and chose to go to a London based university. I ended up not enjoying the course I had chosen and dropped out after 3 weeks. I re-applied, this time doing more research, found my course at Salford and never looked back.
