What subject are you currently studying/did you most recently study at university? What persuaded you to choose this option?

I am currently studying the BA (Hons) Law and Management course. I chose this option at I felt it suited me as an individual, and it was something different instead of going down the LLB Law path. I also liked the idea of learning more around the business side of the things, such as human resources, which I have been thoroughly enjoying.

What course did you study at college, and which college did you attend?

I studied HND Legal Services at North East Scotland College.

What did you find easy and what did you find difficult about making the transition from college to university?

I found the application to be relatively easy, and overall, it was a very smooth process. I did find the idea of going into something totally different from college to be difficult, but the staff were on hand to support the whole way.

WHY RGU? WHAT WAS IT THAT ATTRACTED YOU TO THE UNIVERSITY?

The main reason I picked RGU was because I had heard how fantastic the university was before making my decision.

How would you rate your experience at RGU?

I would say it was quite scary to begin with, not knowing how I would get on personally. However, after getting settled in, my experience has been brilliant.

HOW DID RGU SUPPORT YOU IN YOUR JOURNEY? DID YOU USE ANY OF THE SUPPORT SERVICES AVAILABLE TO YOU?

I haven’t needed to use the support services, but all students are made aware that they are available. I have heard they are excellent and fully supportive.

Would you recommend the route you chose and specifically the college to university pathway?

Yes, I would highly recommend the route I have chosen. The HND Legal Services course gives you a great background on the subject, and this is expanded upon after transitioning to university.

How has RGU helped you achieve your goals?

RGU have been fantastic with helping me to achieve the goals I have set for myself, and I am really looking forward to continuing the course and seeing what else I can achieve.
