Tom's Top Tips for Success

Tip One

Start early

The application process for UK universities can be quite competitive and time-consuming. To make sure you go to the right university, it’s important to start preparing early so that you have enough time to research different universities and programs, take the necessary tests, and perfect your personal statement. By starting early, you will have a better chance of getting into your top-choice universities.
