1927: a different kind of prospectus
Choosing what to do next is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make. University might be part of that. It might not. Either way, 1927 is designed to help you think it through – in your own time, and on your own terms.

What is 1927 – and why read it?
1927 is the University of Hull’s undergraduate prospectus, reimagined.
Instead of leading with course lists and sales pitches, it starts with the bigger questions most prospectuses don’t always leave room for: How do you choose the right path after school or college? Is university the right option for you – or would an apprenticeship or work suit you better? And how does university fit into a world shaped by rapid change, new technology and uncertainty?
It’s still a prospectus (you’ll find a full course directory and practical information inside), but it’s also a space for reflection. We don’t presume that Hull is the right choice for everyone. And we don’t even presume that university is the right choice at all.
What we do believe is that confident decisions come from good information, honest perspectives and hearing from people who’ve been there.
What’s inside the magazine?
Alongside essential undergraduate prospectus information, 1927 features long‑form articles, interviews and guides that explore the decisions behind the decision.
Here are just a few of the stories you’ll find inside:
And much more...
You’ll also find student stories, guides to money and living arrangements, reflections on wellbeing and belonging, a guide to the city of Hull, and a full undergraduate course directory.
A prospectus you can use your own way
You don’t need to read 1927 cover to cover. In fact, most people won’t.
You might start with student stories. Or money. Or careers. You might come back to it after an Open Day, or read it alongside advice from teachers, parents or friends. That’s exactly how it’s meant to work.
This is a prospectus designed to support your thinking — not rush it.
