You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

Please send this to the governemnt to explain why sending every fucker and his brother to university will do most of them no good at all.

I will add that perhaps people in the position you describe should consider some voluntary work or join a local sports club - or just something that could be considered 'extra curricular'. It will help in interviews.
If you go through university not participating in the union, whether that be societies, sports or volunteering then you are doing yourself (particularly if you have little work experience) and your fellow students a disservice.

It's a real regret of mine that I didn't get more involved with things while at uni. I did read a lot outside of my course but it's not the same thing really. Oh well, chalk down to a lesson learned.
