[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 917689, member: 58362"] I know that there's a bit of a kudos thing about what University you go to, although if you were only worried about that, you wouldn't be asking about its standing, but my advice would be to look at the specific faculty you (or your projeny) is looking at. There's plenty of highly regarded universities that contain poor departments and equally poorly regarded universities that deliver great courses. I believe that particular courses are assessed (by UCAS code?), if not that, then departments are, this is would I would suggest looking at. Furthermore, it's worth looking at the course content to see whose suits your particular academic interests. All just rambling thoughts from someone who bimbled into a course that really didn't suit me. Good news was, I saw some great rugby that year! [/QUOTE]
