The University previously used to have seven campuses: of which five were in Manchester, namely: Didsbury, Elizabeth Gaskell, Hollings, Aytoun & All Saints & two in Cheshire: Alsager & Crewe.

The Manchester Metropolitan University & Aston University are both major higher educational institutions in the UK, & attract thousands of international students every year, thanks to their excellent academic standards & overall learning environment. 

However, the Manchester Metropolitan University's acceptance rate of 80% is much better than Aston University's (50%) suggesting Aston is relatively more selective at granting admissions to students.
