Thats the question that faces thousands of students in Britain every year. Many students turn to Clearing, an education agency that helps find university places for students at the last moment. If students dont have enough marks to get into their first choice of universities, Clearing tells them about places available at other universities, though they might have to study another subject.But this year has seen a record number of students who want to study in universities. This means that theres been a fiecer competition for university places than usual. Education officials say six students competed for one place. Its said almost 190,000 students still dont have a place in a university. Thats a rise of over 46,000 students from last year.Faced with these numbers, some students are going to be disappointed, others might be thinking of an interesting choice: studying abroad.
