Hello
Dd is my one and only so this is all new to me. She is 17 and about to sit AS levels next month.
She wants to study English and Film and went to a University Fair today. She has returned laden with prospectuses but her favourite so far is the University of East Anglia which is not a Russell Group Uni. Other choices which do an English and Film course are Southampton, Kings, Exeter and Royal Holloway.
I read so much about the choice of Uni is just as important as the course and that employers won't even look at job applications unless they are from someone who went to a Russell Group Uni.
So, those of you who are more experienced or knowledgable about this, should she be discouraged from looking at non RG unis at this stage?
Many thanks for any insight/knowledge/advice you can offer.
