The Beginnning



Welcome to my journey to University! To be honest, I still cannot believe that I’m actually applying and, hopefully, next September I’ll be living away from home, studying in a new city, meeting new people, and, ultimately getting a degree. So here’s my blog and I’ll be sharing with you all the process of choosing a degree and then choosing a University and of course, applying through UCAS.

My name’s Clara and I am currently studying A Levels in History, Economics and English Literature. I’m applying for a mix of Economics and History, or just Economics with History modules. This has been the hardest part - chosing the course! But I will share with you all later! So far, I have decided on courses, Universities, written my Personal Statement (which was not as easy as may sound!) and trawled through the UCAS Apply page. My application is paid for and sent and I’m just waiting for my Sixth Form to check it and attach my reference, which will hopefully be done after half term. 

Then comes the scary part – do University’s want me? Will they give me an offer that’s achievable and will I get the grades to get in? It’s all starting to get very worrying, and I haven’t even sent my application off! 

Talk soon,

Clara
