Undergraduate courses are becoming extremely popular within the UK. Adams, R. (2022) states that ‘The number of school-leavers applying for undergraduate courses starting in September increased by another 5% at the initial January deadline. The number of British 18-year-olds aiming to go to university directly from school continues to increase at a record pace, according to figures that show a surge in applications this year’. This is the perfect time to enrol onto an undergraduate course. A question that we frequently get at Mont Rose College is ‘How do I get the most out of my undergraduate course?’
Undergraduate courses regardless of the subject can be intense, time consuming and rigorous. It is imperative that you as a student take advantage of the university/college’s facilities that can not only enhance your student experience but ensure that you achieve the highest possible grades to increase the chances of employment after graduation.
