Our third Future Masters and Future PhD report asks what people don't know about postgraduate study – spotting opportunities for good advice and guidance to really make a difference for prospective students. This report focusses on the UK, but it may indicate the presence of surprisingly large knowledge gaps for postgraduate study in general.

The findings reveal that:

• A third of people considering returning to university for a Masters don't know they can get a postgraduate loan to do so
• Less than half of prospective international postgraduates are aware of the UK's new Graduate Route post-study work visa (this is a big one)
• Brexit may have made EU students overly sceptical of UK study opportunities, 'fogging' positive changes such as eligibility for UKRI PhD funding
