Ask Us Competition!

Ask Us Competition!

The ’12 Days of HE’ is a competition that we will be running on our Ask Us webpage between 1 -12 December.

During these 12 days, you have the chance to ask the following three questions about higher education to a member/s of our team:

  1. What and where did you study, and what was your favourite thing about your course?
  2. How have your higher education studies helped with your career?
  3. What do you want to find out about higher education? Ask your own question to our team!

If you receive answers to all three of the above questions, you’ll be entered into a prize draw to win a £10 Amazon voucher. Better still, there are three up for grabs which means three winners!

In order to enter, you will need to follow these steps:

  1. Create an account on our Ask Us platform
  2. Start a conversation with one of our friendly staff members between 1st-12th December
  3. Ask the three questions above – and don’t forget to personalise the third question

Winners will be announced by 15th December and contacted by email using the email address you use when creating your account. What a great early Christmas present!

Don’t worry, if you have already created an account with us before, you will still be eligible.

Please note, this competition is open to students in Year 9 – Year 13.
