Falling in love... with learning

It’s nearly November, and those of you in your final year at school will be right in the thick of it with your university application process. You might be super-organised, and have applied already. You might be finalising your Personal Statement and refining your final choices. Or you might just be taking the first baby steps towards working out what on earth you are going to apply for!

Whichever stage you are at, you are not alone; there are thousands of others in the same position.

All of you (except a few super-human students), will be going through the same doubts: Am I doing the right thing? Is university for me? Will I enjoy the course? Will it be worth it?

And so now is actually a really good time to ask the essential question of yourself: Why go to university? And in particular, why are you looking to apply to university?
