It's so poorly designed that it's worse than googling courses. If you want to sign up, you have to declare which subject you want to get into, where in the country you want to go to university and which university you'd like to go to. These are pointless questions to be asking someone who downloaded the app so that they could find out more about unis. Some of the fields are messed up, cutting text halfway down. Sometimes the information about a uni is missing. Save time, use google.

Hi Magic, we're sorry you feel this way. The fields on sign up are used to create a personalised experience when using the app, sorry if this was not made clear. But we agree with you, we could make this more transparent for new users. The team will investigate the cutting text issues now, and we will release an update this week. ツ

Great idea. But doesn't work well. Tried to put in that I live in the UK, it kept changing it to Uzbekistan, and the areas were mixed between the two countries. I tried to order some prospectuses for my masters, but it wouldn't let me order above undergraduate level prospectuses. I used it for undergrad, and it was wonderful, but it's very broken for masters level students.

Hi James, we can only add prospectus for universities that are partnered with us. We are now working with more than 70% of UK Universities, so I'd like to think we'll have great coverage for many student prospects! ツ

Useful app, good for showing unis per course. But thereare things that could be better eg when making an account, when u enter the course that you want it should filter the list of unis, so there is a section with all the unis that have the course, you should be able to choose that the uni's loaction doesnt matter. The ucas calculator also needs to be extended so it can calculate GCSEs and other qualificatons eg. Music grades. The uni reviews should also be able to be filtered per course. Thanks

Hey Me Yes Me, These are some great suggestions, and we'll pass these on to our design team for consideration. A new version is on its way very soon, which will enable a better sign up experience, more straightforward navigation, and a re-worked UCAS Points Calculator ツ
