Hello Everybody, I have sent my UCAS form of for studying Primary Education in 2012. My top 5 are:
-> Northumbria (Coach Lane Campus)
-> Edge Hill (Ormskirk Campus)
-> Cumbria (Carlisle Campus)
-> Hull (Scarborough Campus)
-> Bishop Grosseteste (Lincoln Campus)
I am wondering what these places are like for bus services and companies etc so I can start searching for areas with good job opportunities.

Just sent mine off mate on Friday. I'm wanting to do Marketing, Business and Computing at different universities that are listed below as well as matching them in Joint Honours.
Mine are as follows in this order.
Derby
Nottingham Trent
Sheffield Hallam
Newcastle
Manchester Metropolitan
As for your choices I'd say that there is going to be a reasonable level of bus services especially Lincoln and Hull.
Good luck with your application!

Good Luck to you too, I know Lincoln is mainly Stagecoach and that Scarborough is EYMS, I'm mainly stuck on my other 3 choices

Newcastle has Stagecoach, Go Ahead and Arriva and has pretty intensive service levels on some routes.
Carlisle is predominantly Stagecoach, and for the last year Reays have been running local services in competition: whether they will be doing so by this time next year is another matter.

Stagecoach - 50p on all routes. Student week/month/term tickets available - tram can be used. Only in Sheffield. For example you can use 50p student fare on X17 but only to Meadowhead, and you can use 50p student fare on 265 but only to Chapeltown. |
