The Complete University Guide website contains lots of useful advice and information to help you choose the best course and
university for you. We can help you all the way through your university application: from choosing and applying, to results
day and beyond.

The University League Tables give you an indication of how a university compares to others: overall and by subject. But the league tables
don’t tell the whole story. You can find outstanding courses delivered by universities that are not top of the tables; and not all courses
offered by the top universities are the best. A university lower down the ranking table may offer great expertise or excellent facilities for a
specific subject.

To create your own list of possible universities, make sure you consult their profiles and all the tables of interest to you, and follow our
advice on choosing a course, and a university. Click on the links below to find out more.
