Doing a degree in history is a decision few people regret, but the first steps – choosing a degree, finding the right university and putting together a UCAS application – can be daunting.

In this webinar, Rob Priest, admissions tutor for History at Royal Holloway, takes a look at some of the big questions. Why study history at university? What should applicants look for in degree programmes? What questions should you ask the universities you are interested in? What makes a good personal statement? What happens to my application after I submit it?

This webinar was recorded in June 2021.
