10 Reasons to Study at University in 2021

Thinking about what the new academic year will bring? Whilst you are getting ready to start your course, NCUK’s Student Support team has put together some information that explains why studying at university in 2021 is a perfect choice.

1. Your place at your chosen university is guaranteed. Even if you have an unconditional offer there is no absolute guarantee that places will still be there for your chosen course next year. Starting in 2021 gives certainty to your studies.
2. Safe study and learning options. Due to measures being undertaken in countries to ensure the safety of all students and staff, most universities will be having some learning online. Universities will be working hard to give a high-quality learning experience. This means you are guaranteed safe personal attention and interaction with peers and academics.
3. Start to build your network. When you begin your studies you will take part in interactive group discussions and teamwork activities which allow you to connect with other students and build your network.
4. Develop skills for life. You will develop a great range of learning skills that will reflect new and innovative ways of teaching and learning. From teamwork and communication skills to self-motivation and time management, you will be building the valuable skill set that employers seek worldwide.
5. Access to high quality teaching and learning. NCUK universities are working hard to ensure the student experience is of a high-quality level and making sure each individual student is thoroughly supported in their journey.
6. Investing in your future. By going to university you are developing your skills and experiences increasing your employability.
7. Access to University Support Services. Universities are working to ensure classroom learning and campus facilities can be open and safe for students to access when they begin their studies. Universities have implemented additional services to support students throughout their studies. All NCUK Universities are in countries that have world-class health systems, so you and your families can be assured that your health and wellbeing are in good hands.
8. Advance your knowledge. Study what you love and what you are really interested in. All NCUK universities have degrees that are recognised around the world, and therefore, their quality and reputation are guaranteed.
9. No need to delay your studies. Your career progression and earning potential begins as soon as you graduate, so the earlier you start your studies, the quicker you will be able to advance your career and increase your salary.
10. Get an internationally recognised qualification – all NCUK universities are recognised and respected by employers and academics throughout the world.
