Why You Should Join a University Society

October 24, 2020

joining a university society

One of the main things that is advertised as a perk of university is societies, along with sports clubs (I wasn’t part of any of these, as team and competitive sport really isn’t my thing so this post won’t go into these). However, before you get to uni it can be a little confusing as to what societies are, what they do, how you can get involved, and how they can benefit you. But don’t worry, as a recent graduate who was on the committee of a society for two years, I have all the info you’re going to need!

UCAS Clearing: My Story + What to Expect

July 1, 2020

ucas clearing advice

I’ve just finished my final year at Cardiff University, but what you may not know is I got into Cardiff through UCAS clearing. Having finished my degree I feel I have a good perspective on the clearing process all the way from in the moment on results day, to what it actually means once you’re at university.

My clearing experience on results day was traumatic to say the least. So let’s go back to 2016 and start the story there.
