Description: "The book explores the story of students studying undergraduate degrees at colleges that offer degree courses but which do not have university status. Henderson considers how relationships to these places affect educational experience, how decisions are made about whether to leave or to stay for degree study, and what it means to be an undergraduate student who does not attend a university. As well as working against the assumptions made about the lives and characteristics of a surprisingly diverse and complex group of students, the book offers insights into the ways that place and space are crucial factors for anyone thinking about systemic and structural inequality in higher education"--
