The applicant applied to the University of Leeds but declined the offer as they did not want to study so close to home. They applied to Newcastle University without visiting first to use up their last offer. They considered De Montfort University due to their sister attending and its familiarity to help with anxiety. Their firm choice was Salford University due to its location in Media City and equipment, and because visits made them feel they could be happy living there. Their insurance choice was the University of Sheffield for its course and location.
