Helping students go further

yougofurther.co.uk is full of features to help year 12, S5 or equivalent students get ready for higher education life.

'yougo', as it is more commonly known, is a student community site brought to you by UCAS. There is a dedicated area for year 12, S5 or equivalent students who will be able to take advantage of all its benefits.

Students can create profile pages and take part in the student-only community areas, such as forums. These areas let them chat and interact with others who are also applying to college or university.

What students will get by joining yougo

  • Access to the yougo community.
  • A discount card to cut the cost of shopping at many high street outlets.
  • Regular web chats with experts, including UCAS, universities and colleges; as well as friends of yougo, such as Lonely Planet, TARGET Jobs and the Rugby Football Union (RFU).
  • All the essential information about higher education courses and places of study.
  • Online UCAS advisers to help applicants with the application process.
  • Regular newsletters with news and advice at key stages of the application process.
  • Access to institution profile pages: 'talk' to the colleges and universities online.
  • Three copies of The Independent's 'You Can' magazine, the essential guide to higher education, delivered to their UK address.
