In this folder you can find out more about summer school - Summer Schools are an ideal opportunity to try out university and see what it is like before you choose to go there.

There is also a very useful section giving you practical advice on how to survive the first week of university.

A section on clubs and societies lists the various clubs and societies you may join and contribute to at university. This is just a sample list - Each university will have its own clubs and societies.

Case studies of current and past students show the range of different backgrounds students come from and their different reasons for attending university.
