How to compare these courses

Before you apply
- Confirm the course is genuinely based in Cambridge or clearly explains any multi-location element.
- Check that the provider's age guidance fits the student, as eligibility can vary between courses and sessions.
- Compare the provider, dates, duration and fees rather than judging by title alone.
- Look for a course description that explains what students will actually study or produce.
