Case study

Year 12 at Sir John Cass Sixth Form, Tower Hamlets took part in Uni Dosh as they were starting the UCAS application process. Participants found the real life aspect of the session really useful, one student said:

"I liked that the presenter shared her personal experience with us, and it made me think twice about how I will spend my money".
