“University Centre Rotherham had the course I wanted, and also the creditation – like all of the courses at the University Centre, it was accredited by a top university. Degree courses here are accredited by universities such as Sheffield Hallam, Hull and Huddersfield which means I could do a course in a smaller, less daunting environment and still be accredited by a top university”
