The nominations are in for the 2023 Whatuni Student Choice Awards, our very own event that celebrates the brilliance of higher education institutions in the UK.
Every year, we collect around 35,000 reviews from real students about their unis, getting their honest opinions on important topics like facilities, support, career prospects and more. Collected on campuses across the country and on the Whatuni website, these reviews bring valuable insight into the institutions and inform our awards, making the WUSCAs the largest exclusively student-voted awards in the UK.
The winners of the WUSCAs will be announced at a fabulous event on the 26th April, as well as on the Whatuni website. Until then, take a look at the list of categories and nominations below...
