No it shouldn't. End of.
The University of Wales has faced in recent years many of its universities accrediting alone meaning that universities such as Aberystwyth, Cardiff and Swansea now accredit degrees themselves as it's seen far more popular by others. When I was at Aber Uni I was allowed to select whether I wanted a UoW degree or AU degree certificate (This was in my last year and our year was the only year allowed to do this).
Also in recent times some universities such as Trinity (Carmarthen and Lampeter) and Swansea Metropolitan have merged together to unite under the University of Wales banner.

Congratulations on the free hat! Long have I dreamed of gaining one for myself!
Incidentally, well done on getting in, now wait for the next 'SALE' on wet weather gear and you're sorted

hi all
this is not really an update but more of a question and rather than starting a new thread thort id post here seen as though it was most relevant. anyway some people in The thread suggested that if i couldnt play for USW then its best to play for clubs around the local area. long story short and did some research and found Pontypridd RFU. they look like a professional outfit this is probably because there in the welsh premiership. so i just wanted to ask if i turned up for training would they even consider me ? as if they are a semi professional outfit then i can imagine you cant just turn up id have to complete trials etc. but this may not be the case. just wanted to check as you people who actually live down there would know more than me about it. any help would be obliged.
cheers guys. ;P
