Review
'A guide to every step of the application process.' --Marcus Leroux, Good University Guide, The Times.
'This is an excellent, user-friendly and easy-to-read book, which guides students, parents and teachers through the complete process of applying to university. Not only does it deal with the actual application procedure from start to finish but it gives support and guidance on related issues such as deciding whether to study in your home town or move away, student loans and maintenance grants and electing to choose a gap year.' --Julia Bairstow, Parenting Without Tears
'The book is a genuine catch-all, providing useful information to everyone who'll need it. [It is] refreshingly streamlined and accessible, using very little jargon and separates each section into small, easy-to-read blocks.' --Jiggy, Student E-zine.
