How can I choose a university where I am likely to be taught as an individual rather than feel anonymous?

Look beyond the university’s overall size and check the specific faculty, department, or course you would enter. Examine the timing and size of small-group classes and seminars, adviser or tutor arrangements, when instructors can be consulted, and how learning support is accessed. At an open day or by speaking with current students, ask whether it is easy to approach instructors and whether support works in practice. Check official information for the relevant academic year.
