University life is very different from what learners have experienced at school or college. These resources will help you to explore the differences between them, from student life to societies. If you would like to know more we have Student Ambassadors available to live chat with on our website. These ambassadors represent our partner institutions and can provide learners with an insight into university life and answer any questions they might have.
Shaping Futures are also available to deliver a session on this topic to your learners. Please contact your HEPA or use our booking form to find out more and arrange this.
This is an informative short video which highlights some key aspects of university life to help learners to understand if university is the right choice for them.
When learners begin researching universities we ask them to think about whether they are best suited to a campus or city university. These videos will help them to explore the similarities and differences between these options, and provide an insight into which they might prefer.
Visiting an Open Day is a fantastic way to get a feel of what a university is like, so we'd encourage learners to do this after watching the videos.
Have you ever wondered what studying at a campus-based university would look like? Check out this video from Edge Hill University for an insight!
You might prefer the idea of studying at a city based university, which you can find out more about in this video from Liverpool John Moores University.
Students at Liverpool John Moores University share what they love about studying in Liverpool.

Being part of a society is a huge part of many students lives. Learners can use these resources to find out more about the extra-curricular activities they can be part of at university.
Your learners can find out more about what life is like at University by chatting to a university student. If you would like your learners to engage with current university students, ask Shaping Futures to use this workbook as part of our delivery, or we can bring Student Ambassadors into your classroom to chat with your learners about their experiences. Please get in touch with your HEPA if this is something you'd like to organise.
