The UCAS university application deadline is fast approaching, falling on Wednesday, January 29. Students need to have their online forms filled out, personal statements written, and letter of recommendation from their school uploaded by 6.00pm, as well as choosing five universities they would like to attend.
With twelve universities in North West England, and four on Merseyside, choosing where to start the next three years of your life can be tricky. So, to make it easier, we have put together a list of ratings for each North West institution, using rankings from the Good University Guide.
The highly-regarded guide, put together by The Times and The Sunday Times, is released each year, and ranks each of the UK’s 134 universities based on factors such as graduate prospects, degree results, research quality, and student satisfaction.
So, if you haven’t yet sent off your UCAS application, take a look at the list below to see which universities across Merseyside and the North West rank the best.
