All About Push

Push is an independent organisation that collects some of the most comprehensive, accurate and up-to-date information about student life in the UK. Everyone who works for Push is either a student or recent graduate. Researchers visit every university in the UK and interview hundreds of students, Student Union representatives and university staff. Push does not toe the line of any institution or official body.

At the Push Online website (www.push.co.uk) you can read profiles for more than 120 UK universities and, if you subscribe, you can use the interactive Choose Your Ideal University tool to match your needs with what is available at those institutions. There is also a wealth of information about everything from student finance to which universities have an Alan Partridge Appreciation Society.
