This is a student’s guide to the maze of higher education, offering advice on courses and places to study. With ever-increasing competition for the best higher education courses, and the rising number of universities, especially with the recent elevation of so many polytechnics, this book is designed to help those wanting to make the right decision about going to college. The book deals with the mechanics of applying to college, offering advice and information on all kinds of matters from finance and accommodation, to surviving the first year, as well as a glossary of unfamiliar terms. The listings of colleges and universities - including both information from the institutions themselves, and from students - form the main part of the book. There is also a directory of subjects and where to study them.
