Looking for a bit of advice about a few things regarding 2015 university applications to help DD make an informed choice - I know a few of you have been through this already so I'm hoping to pick your brains if possible.
The first is about the application process itself especially in relation to the OIB.
There are some very big differences between those universities that give "extra" value to the OIB and those who catagorise it the same as Bac General. Does anyone know from experience (I am doing my homework so not being totally lazy!) which ones place a greater value on OIB?
Irrespective of the OIB are there some universities that are more Anglo-French than others - I've heard Bristol is good.
The other question (so far) is in regards to student finance - is there help available from France to study in Britain (not short-term like Erasmus) but for the three/four year course?
I know we are eligible for student funding in the UK but wonder if it is better to get it in France or the UK IYSWIM?
I live/work in the UK and DD and DH are in France (it's complicated!) - so it "may" be possible to be in one or the other systems - not sure which is best (financially etc..) Anyone any thoughts on this?
I've not really thought this topic out - it's a bit of a stream of conscious as you can see - so if there is anything glaringly obvious that I've missed please let me know. Thanks
