University selection
Does a placement year mean the university will find me a placement?
Do not assume that it does. Read whether the placement is guaranteed, competitive or self-sourced, and what happens if you do not secure one. Check additional fees, course duration and immigration conditions. Ask for the actual allocation and support process. A placement option in a prospectus is different from a confirmed placement offer.
