Due to a 16.5% rise in applications this year, there may be many applicants who will find themselves without a place in higher education this year. UCAS and The Independent are launching an e-zine at the end of September to reach this important audience.
UCAS is the only organisation to know exactly who these people are and how to contact them. UCAS Horizon is giving advertisers the opportunity to reach this group who are at a crossroads in their lives. They will be hungry for information on all kinds of different opportunities about study, work, travel and everything connected with all these possibilities.
