does anyone know if duke of edinburgh award counts as UCAS points for uni?
816651
Hya i was wondering the same thing and stumbled across this - "Achievements under the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme are not directly translatable into UCAS points. However, each UCAS application form contains space for a personal statement from the prospective student. This is the appropriate place to list notable non-academic personal achievements such as attainments under the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme. In some cases, where the academic achievement is slightly below the required level, an impressive Personal Statement can be enough to bridge the gap, and earn the student a place. There is no sure way to predict how much weight will be given to the contents of the Personal Statement, but Duke of Edinburgh awards are known to be one of the non-academic factors which admissions officers typically look out for". I hope this helps you :-)

it's not a top uni really but it depends on what you want to study. They might be good at whatever subject you're interested in, what do you  wanna study? You should try the Times University Guide (online)

As far as I know, there isn't a specific list. At least I haven't found one. It is best to look at a university you like and then check to see if they do that/how they do that.

websites like The Times (thetimesonline.co.uk as far as i know, but i'm not sure) do charts for the best universities in every subject area, so they're the best place to try. The Times do it, and also The Independent (I think), and their opinions are unbiased, and are based on lecturer-pupil ratios, grades, etc etc, so theyre a good place to check out :)

I would rate Glasgow and Edinburgh Universities the highest.  They are not Christian Universities as such but they both have very active Student unions.  Before you go to university contact the UCCF at www.uccf.org.uk  and they will put you in contact with Christians at that university.

No, Just like on BDUs, Greens, and Blues you only ware one award from that category (CIB, EIB, EFMB, CFMB, CAB) at a time.\n\nYou can ware one EIB or CAB (Your Choice) pin on subdued on your ACU.

Might be worth looking at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website:\nwww.fco.gov.uk\n\nCheck out the universities themselves - they should have details of specific scholarships or bursaries.

In the source, you can find the different application forms to nominate someone.\n\nSome details from the official site of UK's department of Culture, media and sport:\n\n\nTimetable for the Honours process\n\nHonours lists are announced twice every year, at the New Year and on the Queen's Birthday in June. We accept nominations at any time of the year. However, we work on each list several months ahead of actual publication, therefore we need to know well in advance if a nominee is due to stand down, retire or otherwise end their involvement with a particular activity. Honours should be awarded to people who are still performing the service for which they have been recommended. It is unusual for someone who has been retired for more than 12 months at the time of publication of the list to be awarded an honour.

It depends on the university! Each university has its own entry requirements.

Ya, they do seem to have just made up the rule. \nI don't know which state you may live in, so I can't answer this question, since rules are different in different places. At my school we don't have UIL. But if I was you, I would properly ask the NHS sponsor or the principal.

The ranking system is that published by The Times. If you go to their website and the to the Higher Education section, you should get there. Alternatively, most universities will give the ranking on their own websites - if they're any good...

Well, the best place to get this information is from the London School of Economics. Here are links to the school for undergraduate and graduate admissions:\n\nUndergraduate: http://www.lse.ac.uk/collections/undergraduateAdmissions/\n\nGraduate:\nhttp://www.lse.ac.uk/collections/graduateAdmissions/

Universities are governed by a similar body to Ofsted for schools. I can't remember the name of it, but a little Internet research should help.  If you are really concerned then maybe you could report it to a body such as that?

You could contact some universities in UK and ask them the criteria for MS with spinning
