4.5
Amazing experience and very proud to make the decision to study here.
Tips: Lancaster is a very small city, frequently travel to nearby cities like Preston or Manchester to get better things. Nightlife is safe and most clubs are friendly and open to all. If you choose your course wisely, you will have an opportunity of a lifetime. Make sure to knock on every door and you will get a part time job for sure and after university, use the alumni network to get a good job.
Likes (Safety): Best campus experience. The campus even after being large and open always felt secure. The marshals and officers are always on duty to help and assist you with everything. People around and on campus are active 24/7 you would not be in danger of any sort.
Dislikes (Indian Food): We have got limited number of non-European restaurants but we can go to nearby cities like Preston. Cooking for yourself can be a struggle but you will eventually learn it and make sure to keep a check on your diet to not fall sick. All major delivery partners would anyway be active.

A great place to grow and learn.
Tips: Lancaster University is ranked among the top 10 universities in the Complete University Guide 2025. The Lancaster University Management School (LUMS) Accounting and Finance programme is also ranked 7th in the Guardian University Guide 2025. The professors in my course were especially encouraging and always gave me the space to ask and clarify my questions. I am proud to be a scholarship recipient, having received awards from both the university and the management school. Lancaster University is the best choice for those who want to focus on both career development and academic excellence.
Likes (Public transportation): Every 10 minutes, you can catch a bus to the city centre or nearby areas from the university underpass. The buses also serve all on-campus locations, running from the underpass to the Graduate College. Students can get a student term pass to save some money on travel.
Dislikes (Internships): The M.Sc. Finance programme can be quite hectic and demanding, leaving little time for internships. Students are usually fully occupied with coursework, lectures, and tests.

It is a beautiful campus with lots of events.
Tips: It's a great campus with a lot of facilities, but just be sure about one thing that this is a place which is a bit deserted, not a proper city like, otherwise everything is good. And if you get a scholarship for your course, that's a big win situation. People are friendly and love to socialise. Feel free to reach out to faculty in case of any doubts. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Intense course at Lancaster University.
Tips: The course is excellent but the faculty doesn't meet the expected standards. Each term is three months long, but they cover the material in just two. Classes are six hours a day plus assignments and frequent tests. All major exams are handwritten, with two 50 mark questions on the final and grading is very strict. Around 30% of students fail. You have to manage your health diet and the climate. It is a challenging environment not easy at all. They expect dissertation quality at a Ph.D. level.
Likes (Part time work): There are plenty of part time jobs available catering to various interests and skills. As international students, we are limited to 20 hours per week, and Lancaster University offers sufficient opportunities to meet this visa requirement.
Dislikes (Internships): Firstly, the university provides insufficient support for internships in the M.Sc. in Accounting and Financial Management program. While there are career fairs they are not tailored for accounting students and undergraduate students seem to be prioritised over Master's students.

The faculty is excellent, providing support at every stage.
Tips: The Lancaster University Bailrigg Centre is a vibrant campus with a large sports centre and five colleges, some for postgraduate and others for undergraduate students. Be energetic and excited to visit; the fun lasts a long time.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Student life at Lancaster University's Bailrigg Centre is amazing, with numerous cafes on campus. The campus life is very pleasant; students can take walks to breathe fresh air in the mornings and evenings, promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The faculty is excellent, providing support at every stage. They offer personal drop-in sessions to help students concentrate on their studies and achieve good grades. They are also very interested in getting to know their students.

Leaving your comfort zone to experience the beautiful journey.
Tips: It is very important to get information about travel routes at the time of first arrival in the UK. A student must know how to take a train from Manchester to Lancaster. Walk for a few minutes from Lancaster railway station to Common Garden Street. Take a bus from Common Garden Street to Lancaster University, only buses numbers 100/1A/41/42. Arrive at the Underpass or Management school bus stop, then it's a walkable distance to their college porters. I got a scholarship of 5000. Lancaster University will automatically apply the scholarship if the grades are eligible. Overall, I am very satisfied with my course and university. It is a very intense course. I learned a lot; however, when it comes to placement, I am neutral.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation, like buses and trains, is very accessible here. There's a bus app, Stagecoach, where you can track live buses, bus numbers, timings, and duration. Also, if your bus or train is stuck due to a technical issue, the team takes responsibility to drop passengers to their location by arranging another mode of transportation. In the case of trains, sometimes, due to delays and issues, the ticket price is fully refunded, even after they drop you off.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK has quite limited options of getting permanent settlement compared to other countries. It is mandatory required first to get sponsored job then there are chances of applying for Indefinite leave to remain. Yes, if the right career opportunity comes I will surely apply for permanent residence here.

My experience at the university has been both academically rigorous and personally rewarding.
Tips: Before joining this college, students should know that academic expectations are high and independent learning is strongly encouraged. The transition can be challenging initially, especially when adapting to a new culture and its cultural norms, but a supportive environment makes it more manageable. The university is quite diverse and is very student-friendly.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty of our department is highly knowledgeable and experienced. They also bring strong academic and industry perspectives to the classroom. They are generally approachable and are very responsive to student queries via office hours or emails. The faculty are fairly diverse.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): If needed I believe I could work towards meeting the necessary requirements for permanent settlements especially through skilled employment pathways. The process can be competitive and dependent on Visa eligibility I would be confident in building a strong profile over time.

The current job market is horrible here in the UK.
Tips: I have upskilled myself in my field. Recently, our team won 2 consecutive CTF events in UK Lancashire and Yorkshire CTF events. I was also part of the team. Once you decide to move to any place, you should be ready to embrace cultural changes, sometimes it might be a shock but again it's us who opted for it. There are multiple scholarships, but if you have decent academics, you can avail 10,000 pounds scholarship easily.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I am in the School of Computing Science and Technology Department. The faculty of this department are very knowledgeable and have multiple research papers; some of them are pioneers in their field like CNN, Derpfake and Data Mining. The best part about this university is that they give you ample time to complete your assignments, and you can always reach out to professors with your doubts. The faculty is quite diverse, with teachers from India, Russia, Greece, Britain, Middle Eastern countries and other Southeast Asian countries.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The current job market is horrible here in the UK. Lancaster is a very small place, and no tech jobs are available here. However, there are plenty of jobs available for marketing and core software development, but you need patience and good skills to land a job. The new tax rules and the high cost of living are going to make it very hard for a middle-class income stream to survive in the UK. There are hidden taxes as well like water tax, society tax, council tax which makes it hard to save any penny. Based on my experience, the UK is good for a few years, but I would opt out myself from setting down here.

Samir’s experience at Lancaster.
Tips: I took some time to adjust due to massive changes in weather as well as culture. I did receive a scholarship from my state government for the program. I was fairly satisfied with my course and university. The faculty members are really helpful and ready to help.
Likes (Value for money): The faculty and resources are worth the money spent. The course is very intense and will not give to time to sit and relax. Apart from curriculum, it does teach you a lot of things. The one-year program helps in developing your soft skills. Also, the career team is also really helpful.
Dislikes (Internships): As it is just a 1-year master's program, you don’t get enough time to do an internship. Also, the department does not allow due to time constraints. Some programs do provide a chance to work on industrial projects instead of research projects but that varies from program to program.

First, you should have a great score in your previous qualification. Before coming here prepare yourself and write an extraordinary application. Also, look for scholarships because having a scholarship will reduce your burden. And in last get counselling from experts and former students, they will help you in getting most of the insights.
Likes (Safety): The University of Portsmouth is located in Portsmouth, the UK's only island city. The University offers a vibrant campus with great facilities for students. The campus is full of various cultural clubs which helps in finding own kind of feel in a different country. The cultural clubs organize various events. The various communities help the students with their daily problems. There are around 140 various clubs and communities. If you are coming here then it's a great choice no doubt. You will enjoy the campus.

Top University for research power.
Tips: There are many things that students should keep in their mind before coming to the University of Portsmouth. They should know the entry requirements. The acceptance rate for international students is 70%. Prepare for interviews because they take interviews for some courses sometimes. They gave scholarships based on your last course percentage. I am satisfied with the university and course.
Likes (Student Life): The University of Portsmouth is pretty good for students. They provide every necessity that a student should have and the career opportunities are great. There are many events for the students. We Indians celebrate every kind of festival there. There are cultural clubs also which organize various events. There are great facilities for interactive learning and sports. In a nutshell, it is a great hub for enjoying student life.
Dislikes (Value for money): The faculty of University of Portsmouth is passionate and very helpful. They are dedicated towards the progress of students. They are always available for help. They have a unique way of teaching and the most important thing is that they teach and deliver their lectures in a well-organized way. Many teachers from different countries are there and it makes me feel good to see them teaching in their own ways.

Tips: No need to worry or panic before coming it is a very good place to study. Friendly, supportive and cooperative with international students because that is how this university is very diverse. No security problem and I, as a girl always feel safe even outside the campus. Library is where I spend most of my time and I feel peace there and Portsmouth is peaceful too on whole.
Likes (Internships): Work placements happen as I said before and they usually happen for 36 weeks I have read that around 17000 pounds are the average package for that regarding internships. So most of the students find themselves on the portals like jobisjob and graduatejobs bright network is another good portal for internships only.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): University organises recruitment fair and career events but these are mostly need-based, most of the time startups come to take part in the university. Also there are many jobs posted on the job board but still, like it happens in the top colleges of India it does not happen here, mega recruitment is something I have not seen as of now but I am still studying so I don't know much about it.

A university to get admitted to
Tips: The buildings of the university are scattered and not in a place so many students sometimes find it a bit difficult to move from one lecture to the other. But with me it is not the case, our school of business is unique I must say! Gym facilities are great but there can be some improvements done to student career support in terms of searching the jobs or making the most out of placement year. Student community is good no doubt and there are many research opportunities too so if you are coming from India think like you will get many opportunities.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty has to be the best part of this university. So helpful and supportive even if they see an underperforming student for them everyone is equal and they also understand the shift in the education system and try to make the transition very smooth. There is a good chance to make a good bond with any professor on campus.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Before coming learn something to make simple things like tea/coffee, maybe some veggies or basic curries so very little money will be spent. Saving is the key to living a student life. Indian food is available but the restaurants are expensive nothing like the street style. I spend somewhere between 175 GBP- 200 GBP on food each month which I think is fair.

I like this university it has everything.
Tips: Many Indian and African students study in Portsmouth and it feels like home so many places to visit. There are many good architecture spots as well and many bridges and parks to enjoy. People are very nice and they greet me also. I think I got a 3000-pound scholarship and it is given to international students on grades. My course is very industry made and the tutors are also from many countries not only from the UK so they teach many things and also give examples from the countries by which they come.
Likes (Public transportation): Buses, trains, tube, bicycles, taxi every mode is there no problem to travel and public transport is not expensive. Good for students like me. University also has buses which are free of cost which goes round across Portsmouth so that is also very helpful for students.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): No complain I have on the permanent settlement. Some members from my family have already come to UK so I don't think there is any problem but a good job is necessary and internships should also be good. It is top-notch country to live in everything is first-class education, healthcare and security. Work visa for 5 years and then ILR application can be done to stay permanent so everything starts with one step.

The area is good everything is available nearby, all grocery stores are near to college also no problem with accommodation. Many Indians studying can take a shared room too which will not cost much. Cook the food yourself it will be cheap and better. Bring some spices with you as they are very cheap. Dhaniya is very costly and no chilli is free.

Tips: When I thought of studying abroad, I always wanted to study somewhere beautiful and so I love being in Portsmouth. The people, the area everything is so good. The courses in this university are good which makes it a good choice. If you are from a business course you'll not have to think more about the course selection the B-school got it covered. No unnecessary modules are present. Simple, to the point and very forthcoming in the end.
Likes (Safety): The university provides free bus service which we take by just showing our student ID. Facility support is very good. No issues of security and the crime rate is also low. The college also provides housing support and this facility is also good. There are also campus emergency numbers and helplines.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is good and comes from many countries. Many guest lecturers also come and that is the best part of this course. I have not seen such jolly faculty in India anywhere. Sometimes it is not like what students say that everything is easy while talking about teaching. There are many assignments and CSE studies to do. Professors help with that but sometimes it is difficult to change from one teaching methodology to another.

It's good. The teachers are nice and really helpful. There are always events going on to enjoy.
Tips: There are fewer part time jobs available in this city while studying. I didn't have any cultural shifts because I found a lot of students here back from my home country. I am quite satisfied with the course because the teachers are quite nice and helpful.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): If someone managers to get a sponsored job in this country then it's quite easy for them to settle. I would probably settle if I manage to get a full-time sponsored job but for me who has no previous work experience it is hard to get into a job here.

University of Portsmouth's coursework is satisfying.
Tips: To be very honest there was no cultural shifts that I experienced. Because everything is good here all the people are familiar here and want to connect with us so I like the people and their mentality because I want to adopt our culture. Before coming here every student should know about the scholarship details because there are lots of scholarship options for international students as I also avail 31400 scholarship. There are some early bird scholarships like first come first serve.
Likes (Indian Food): As in portsmouth there are lots of restaurants and cuisins some of them are Indian cuisines also in which we get all types of Indian food. Being an international student if we can find such food it is a great option. If we talk about the pricing they are not too costly and all items are within budget. I prefer cooking myself because it is a good option in comparison to eating outside.
Dislikes (Safety): As according to my experience here the university provides full privacy and security. There is a student union here to solve every problem and guide us for every step. There are anti- harassement, anti-ragging, and some student university squads to provide complete security and guidance for every student.

Tips: No need to worry before coming to Portsmouth. Many Indians live around Southampton or nearby areas. Many events take place around the city where we get to meet and greet people from many nationalities. A lot to do here without getting bored with anything. I live close to the town centre so no worries about shopping too. Accommodation outside is also very good. Neat and tidy rooms, nicely ventilated. The library is very spacious and has many computers to access the material. Student union and sports are excellent. It is always good to take a walk around Gunwharf Quays. It is indeed a beautiful city.
Dislikes (Internships): One good thing is that all the internships are paid which we don't see mostly in South Asia. The college helps a bit but students need to search for internships on their own mostly. For my course, it is a bit tricky to secure one because of competition in the Law field. Internships are relevant but always a tough nut to crack.

Portsmouth is a beautiful City. College is good as well.
Tips: Both faculty and students are from many countries around the world. The campus is close to many tourist spots so it is not boring. Good to enjoy with friends. The only thing that we Indians struggle with in Portsmouth is the weather. It is usually very chilly and around January, February it gets very cold but accommodations do have the necessary arrangements so one does get used to it. There are some issues related to mobile and connectivity but it is not that much it is bearable. Always look out for better SIM providers when coming to this city.
Likes (Post study jobs): More jobs than Canada are available and a sponsor visa is just what is needed. Some of my friends are working across the UK having around 25k pound package just after graduation but for that good project, reports need to be shown. The only one thing to remember is to look out for jobs early because it takes time to look for a perfect role because of competition.

The college is value for money.
Tips: Culture is good in and out of classroom. I got good professors who listen and help with assignments. More focus is given to case studies and assignments which sometimes are tricky but they have more grade points. Group assignments/team assignments make the culture good. The scholarship is not much only some bursaries are present for international Masters students but still, the college is worth it.
Likes (Safety): No problem related to safety. Students are working as part-time and even out of campus there is no issue. Just no need to indulge in wrong practices which cause problems. No one passes a judgment in Hampshire until you do your work. Meet people and be nice and you won't face any problems in future.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Many Turkish and middle eastern restaurants are present. Hallal options are also available for Muslims but as a student it gets very costly as compared to India. A simple Kebab costs around 4-5 pounds which is just 60-100 rupees in India or at max 200.

Good opportunities after graduation.
Tips: Everything is fine here. There is no cultural shift that I experienced because all the guys here are very friendly and supportive. I avail a £1600 scholarship. This is provided by the university to mostly international students. I am fully satisfied with University of Portsmouth, as the faculty, class time table, and job opportunities are good after graduating from here.
Dislikes (Student Life): We have three days of classes per week from morning to evening mostly. These are a mixture of lectures and seminars, the faculty is good so we enjoy every moment. There are many types of events organised by the university. For ex. weekly events, cultural events, graduation party etc. These events are very informative, helpful and fun-loving. There is a student union in my university and an astoria club for graduation parties.

Most of the international students can get scholarships.
Tips: I have not experienced any cultural shift as it is a very small city as compared to other cities in the UK where students usually go to study but everything is near like supermarkets etc. The campus is also not so big, the buildings are close and the staff and lecturers are also very helpful. I got a 1600 GBP scholarship which is provided to international students by the university and if you want to come here you will also get it. Placements are also good I have seen the seniors getting placed in good companies in the UK and it has a good QS world ranking. I am satisfied by getting admission here.

Best for IBS and business related courses.
Tips: There was not any cultural shift for me. Other students and staff from facilities helped me get settled very fast. I thought it would be difficult and there would be so much to adjust but it is not at all like that. People are also very friendly and supportive. I got 1600 GBP scholarship and my other Indian friends got this as well. IBM nowadays is a very popular course and many students are taking it up. If you want to study forex and import/export business this is for you. I am fully satisfied, the university has a good reputation and there are good options to get settled here after graduation.
