Before applying to Loughborough University, I was in school in Bangalore, India, studying the International Baccalaureate (IB) programme. My original plan was to pursue my chosen course at one of my original university choices.

I first heard about Loughborough University via the UCAS Clearing website. I chose to apply to the University through Clearing due to the amazing rankings, fantastic campus, plethora of sports facilities, and highly rated business school. Plus, Loughborough is the UK’s premier university for sport which really appealed to me.

During the Clearing process I used several sources to do my research, including the UCAS website, searches on Google and YouTube, and guidance from an international study counsellor.
