Undergraduate Indian Students at Loughborough
Tips: Didn't face any culture shock when I shifted, but I think it's because I'm just like that. There is a huge Indian community here; they are really sweet and have amazing events and are really sweet and accommodating. Every year many students from India do come here, so you wouldn't be alone.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The teachers are nice. They are extremely helpful and polite. Obviously this is university, and you don't actually have much conversation with them, but still they support you with different things. I haven't seen much racism here from the faculty. The careers network is also useful.
Dislikes (Part time work): Off-campus opportunities are less, especially if you are trying in Loughborough. But if you look at Leicester and are willing to travel there, it's fine then. Leicester is a town nearby; you can go by bus, which is not that expensive, but it depends on the person if they are willing to travel. I recommend getting a bank contact where you have the flexibility to go when you want. They call you and inform you of availability.

Strong Opportunity That Cultivates Growth
Tips: Students should know that the university offers a very independent learning environment compared to what many international students may be used to. Time management, self-discipline, and being proactive with academics, networking, and career opportunities are very important. The campus infrastructure, facilities, student support and extracurricular opportunities are excellent especially for sports and student life. However students should also realistically understand the current UK job market and plan early for internships, placements, networking and skill development if they are aiming for post-study employment. At the same time, opportunities (such as part-time work and research projects by the University) are not always handled to you automatically. Students who actively follow up, network, and show initiative tend to benefit the most. For example, I was able to get involved in a university-liked research project because I consistently followed up and stayed engaged with the opportunity rather than waiting for it to come to me. I would also recommend making full use of the university support systems, such as academic tutors, careers services, societies, social events, and wellbeing resources, as they genuinely help students settled in and get the most out of the experience. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I gave the faculty a full 5/5 because the professors were seriously amazing—super knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and always had our backs. The teaching style was really engaging, and having great campus facilities to back it up made a huge difference. A lot of the lecturers actually brought real-world experience into the room, including former athletes, alumni, and industry pros who are still connected to the university. I also loved how open they were to just sitting down for a chat or giving feedback outside of normal lecture hours. On top of that having a personal academic tutor was a lifesaver. They’d regularly check in to see how we were coping with the workload and life in general offering one-on-one help whenever we needed it. Plus, being able to run through our coursework outlines with the examiners beforehand was huge—it took away the guesswork and showed us exactly how to lock in better grades.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I only gave it a 2/5 because trying to crack the UK job market right now is an absolute nightmare if you're an international student. It’s especially brutal for fresh graduates who actually need visa sponsorship. Sure, the uni has things like career fairs and counseling, but at the end of the day, you're completely stuck dealing with terrible market conditions and companies that just refuse to sponsor. It’s way easier to just land a short 6-month contract, but honestly, that’s just a temporary band-aid. It doesn't actually solve the long-term issue of getting a stable visa.

Great college and value for money but country for job is not great
Tips: Cultural shift, yes—experiencing mingling with people from abroad has definitely changed my perspective. I didn't get any scholarship. I'm really satisfied with the university and course, but I'm not really satisfied with the country because a visa-sponsoring job wasn't really available, and I always felt like I was an outsider.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Teaching and curriculum are great compared to India. The way the teacher teaches and approaches is really great. Since there is no strictness about attendance and teachers just teach and mind their business, it gives us the freedom to utilize the time how we want.
Dislikes (Internships): I haven't tried for an internship but all I know is that it's not that easy to get internship and university help isn't all that great. I have tried a little for internships but since part time was possible I went but now thinking back I should have tried going for internships because that would have boosted my career.

I feel it is a must to experience something magical in your life.
Tips: The culture shock is real—honestly, you feel it the second you step off the plane. One thing I’d say is don’t try to force your old habits on people here; everyone really values their personal space, and they’ll respect you way more if you do the same. You’ve got to actually open your mind to how people live here instead of just sticking to what you knew back in India. You’re spending a lot to be here, so you might as well grow with the place. I think a lot of students get blinded by the glamour of living abroad, but the reality is it gets lonely, even if you’re hanging out with friends. You also have to force yourself to speak up. If you stay quiet, you just get overlooked, period. Regarding scholarships, having solid grades from back home is the easiest way in since most of it’s automatic. But for everything else, a killer portfolio and SOP are what really set you apart. I’m honestly so happy I chose Loughborough London. My whole outlook on design has changed—the subjects and the way they actually teach you is just on a different level compared to what I was used to.
Likes (Public transportation): Every public transport system in London is well connected, accessible, and inclusive for all, I have seen disabled people climb up and about bus and tubes smoothly and efficiently, which speaks alot for the way the public transport system is designed. The overall connectivity is awesome, you may be anywhere in London you'll definitely find a tube or bus back home. In terms of affordability, one way trip avg cost about 2 pounds, that's about 200 rupees. This may be bus or train. Monthly about 40 to 50 pounds can be spent on travel alone.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Chances of permanent settlement is a dicey matter to me, it comes down to catering to a lot of decisions and sacrifice before you can actually commit yourself to a different city or country of your choice, besides the government policies for immigrants are not in flavour to them completely, you may now have to spend upto 10 years to be eligible for a PR, and then there are also almost 40 percent taxes that you pay off from your learnings to the government. To survive in that economy you need a lot more than just your degree Certificate. Given the chance to move out there, I would personally take because the opportunity would be great for work. Especially in design management, the role and work is highly appreciated and value.

Tips: I had a hard time when I arrived at the university. I was homesick and the style of teaching is also quite different from India. Later when I made friends and adapted to the course and learnt how to write my papers it was much easier.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I’m not somebody who wants to stay here long term. Permanent settlement options for those who do are great. Coming from India, it seems a little dull and gloomy at times. There are many great opportunities for students and immigrants if you’re a hard worker.

A nice and interesting experience.
Tips: The way they conduct their course is very different from what I was used to. Especially for an M.Sc. course, you should know that most of what you'll learn is surface-level. Unless it's a very specific course. They do allow for scholarships. You'll have to check it out depending on your criteria.
Likes (Safety): Loughborough University is very safe at any time of the day. There are no facilities as such provided for safety, but in general, it is a very safe town. It is just a very safe down, I have walked at 3 am in the morning multiple times from university to my accommodation and I have never faced a dangerous incident. Neither have any of my friends so far.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): With all the changes going on with the immigration laws in the country, the odds for an international student getting a job is very low. Most of my international friends well qualified for a job have gotten a call back from companies interested in hiring them; however, as soon as they mention they will require future sponsorship, they are immediately rejected. There are very few companies, mainly the big ones, that offer sponsorship now. Usually around 25,000-30,000 annually if you somehow manage to get a job.

A great university with world class infrastructure and sports.
Tips: Please do your research, connect with the alumni who are still there in the UK and also the ones who've left. Know about the current market. Loughborough is well known for sports in the world, and scholarships for business studies are given on the basis of work experience.
Likes (Student Life): Loughborough University is very student-friendly, with tons of activities going on throughout the year. Students can also become student ambassadors for their courses, and the university also offers a lot of good part-time job options. The university has multiple student bodies, and each one has its own club. If you're interested, you can join the one that's right for you.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Loughborough University is located in a small university town with limited Indian food choices. However, the town is quite close to Leicester, which offers plenty of options for Indian food. Loughborough has a good number of pubs and also a good number of Indian restaurants, and some supermarkets and small Asian stores where you can pick up all your favourite Indian groceries.

Exceptional student experience, world-leading sport, and top-tier university.
Tips: Many students at the university make it feel like home. The transition was smooth and welcoming, thanks to the university's strong sense of community, diverse student body and the supportive staff. There is a separate International Experience team that helps and supports the International students. I did not avail myself of any scholarship, but overall, I'm highly satisfied with the university, the course, International Business Management and the country, the UK.
Likes (Safety): All halls of residence feature secure entry systems and have dedicated Hall wardens and sub-wardens who provide support. There are CCTV cameras that cover the entire campus, monitored at all times. The college is equipped with fire safety systems, emergency exits, and fire extinguishers. Lockers are provided for bicycle storage, ensuring they are properly secured at all times. Trained personnel provide first aid assistance in case of any emergency.
Dislikes (Internships): The University offers guidance and support for the students seeking internships. The University careers network provides resources such as job vacancy listings, dedicated internship programmes to help students with their applications. For example, Talent Match are promoted through the University platform and students are encouraged to engage further to make full use of the same.

University life can be drastically different for everyone.
Tips: Before joining this college, students should understand what course they are taking up and what facilities are available on campus. There are many activities and sessions that are offered for free, but students are often not aware of them. So, it is important to do your research beforehand.
Likes (Safety): There are security vans that patrol at all times. Also, the campus is always lively with people jogging around. However, because it's a small town, there's not a lot of crime. Even so, always try to walk in groups at night.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are part time jobs available on campus but because it's a small student town the options are limited. However there are opportunities for on-campus employment so it's not that bad. But a part-time job is difficult to manage when you have a heavy course load.

Potential learning but placement issues.
Tips: I got a scholarship of 4,000 Pounds and didn't have to take an entrance exam. I couldn't get a placement after graduation because of Brexit. Although I liked the university, the course didn't have value in my country, so it was pointless. I loved the country and the standard of living.
Likes (Safety): I felt safe even when I was out at 4 am in the town because it's never quiet and there are many lights on the road. Everything was accessible and nearby, so I didn't have to go away from home. Even at night, transportation is easily accessible and private cabs are available too.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I didn't get any placement offers from the university after I completed my master's degree. There was no placement cell for any guidance, so everyone who earned their master's degree had to go back home. Even though university life was fun and the course provided good learning, placement really destroyed everything.

Tips: Loughborough University provides 20 to 10% of scholarships depending upon the criteria. The cultural difference that I faced after coming to UK was that everything closed by 6 pm but totally satisfied with the university. The course is really interesting.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Loughborough university is renowned for its high-quality faculty members in their respective fields. They often hold regular office hours, respond promptly to emails, and are willing to schedule appointments for additional support and guidance. The university employs a diverse range of teaching methodologies. Designed to cater to different learning styles.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Loughborough university is a small town where no settlement can be seen. Except for the university, there's nothing which can give you job opportunities, and students can't get settled because of a lack of professional opportunities. You need to go out and work in another big city.

University with top ranking and great student satisfaction rate.
Tips: I have experienced a cultural shift at the beginning of the semester. Teaching method, assignments were completely different from my home country. Later it was not a problem because we got used to it. I was awarded with the scholarship. It covered 20% of the tuition fee. I think B.Teach and 12th standard marks helped me with the scholarship. I am very much satisfied with the overall performance of the university. However, it completely depends upon ourselves how we will use the opportunities which are provided by the university.
Likes (Quality of faculty): For the Business Analytics course we used to have 5 days classes in a week. Morning sessions are lectures continuing sessions with the computer lab. So lab sessions are most of the practice of the lessons which are covered. University has a diverse teaching faculty which includes experienced faculty from all around the globe.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): At present I am looking for a job offer who will sponsor for my visa to stay in the country. If I get the one then there is a higher chance to settle in the United Kingdom. If I have a chance I would like to permanently immigrate to this country.

Great Learning Experience at Northumbria University
Tips: Students should know the college offers good academic and career opportunities but requires strong time management and self-discipline. I adjusted well after a brief cultural shift in communication and lifestyle. I'm satisfied with the university, courses, and overall experience.
Likes (Student Life): I gave student life a 5 because campus is honestly always buzzing. Most days, I'm just rushing to classes and then immediately catching up on group projects. If there's time, I'll drop by whatever club events are going on. Honestly, with all the random cultural festivals and networking mixers happening around campus, you don't even have to try hard to get involved. Honestly being around such a diverse crowd has really helped me come out of my shell, make some great friends and just pick up solid experience along the way.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The country definitely has actual routes to staying long-term, but honestly, trying to settle down here is a grind. It’s super competitive, takes forever, and you're completely at the mercy of the job market and whatever visa rules they feel like changing. That said, if you've got the right skills and a degree, the opportunities are absolutely out there.

Tips: Learn to cook as outside food is so costly over here. Don't expect anyone to teach you step by step. You should learn everything by yourself.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Many faculty are doing a PhD, so it's totally different from Indian universities. Here, no one's gonna spoon feed you. You should learn on your own. They give you a lot of assignments and projects and presentations, so self prepration is widely popular here. Don't expect anyone to teach you step by step.

The campus was culturally diverse. The lecturers were knowledgeable and encouraging.
Tips: Researching the university and its cultural heritage helped me a lot. I also made sure I checked the accreditation and global ranking system to ensure that I can still work elsewhere in the future with this valid degree. Make sure the course aligns with your goals and objectives. Plan your cost and budget living expenses might be a big factor. Trying to look for scholarships or part-time work might give you some financial ease. Also be prepared for cultural differences and adjustments get yourself a health insurance sorted and have a good knowledge of your visa documentation beforehand.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The lecturers were knowledgeable and encouraging. Independent learning and research are encouraged rather than spoon feeding like the Indian curriculum. It helps you grow and develop many skills such as critical thinking and self-awareness. I was exposed to various departments and activities which enriched my academic journey. The campus was culturally diverse, offering a chance to learn from people from different backgrounds and build a global perspective in an inclusive environment.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK has a immigration and settlement system. To obtain a permanent residency one must live there for an extended period of time with a valid visa to even be considered. The UK offers excellent education and exposure it is also expensive and highly competitive. If given an opportunity to settle in the UK I would likely not choose it as securing a stable job is very challenging.

Dull country, good education
Tips: My life has not experienced any huge transition in cultural experience because I tend to stay at home all the time. This might be because I am introverted but whoever goes outside can have the enjoyment whatever. I got a 3000 pound scholarship from my university and it is a general scholarship anyone can get. I am satisfied with the studies they provide but the country seems to be a bit dull.
Likes (Indian Food): I actually prefer cooking myself because I like home food, I tried eating out but they are all bland options. So, I started cooking for myself. As I am living in a flat with other Indians, we share the cooking responsibilities and most of the Indian cooking items are available here.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are not many on-campus part-time jobs available, I tried applying for off-campus as well but no luck. It's been a year since I came here but I still have not secured one. But few of my friends are working and they get paid a minimum of 10.42 if you are more than 21.

The best college I have seen in my life.
Tips: Students should know that you should have some certificates if you are joining through sports. You should have around £20000 in your bank account. They should’ve at least 80% in their 10 and 12 classes examination for admission. They have to speak good English .
Likes (Post study jobs): The student life is good because there is an area for us to chill where we can play games like sneaker, Table tennis, Fusball and eat or watch television. We can hang out with our friends in university. No ragging in university and all the students work together.
Dislikes (Value for money): All the professors are quite good they all help us to do our work. If we are stuck somewhere they help us to do that thing. They give us 1:1 ratio also. They don't yell at the students instead they teach students in good manner and we all understand everything that they teach.

MSc Mathematics - Batch of 2025
Offered by Northumbria University
5.0
Lively and energetic campus.
Tips: Focus on industry math. Transitioning meant mastering Geordie slang and self-study. I got a 2,500 Global Scholarship via grades. Very satisfied with Northumbria; the course is practical, and the UK’s Newcastle is an affordable, vibrant student hub.
Likes (Indian Food): 5/5 for life in the city. Days blend 24/7 library study with city fun. I love the "Toon" energy most. The SU hosts weekly gigs and cultural fairs. With 100+ clubs, from Math to Surf, there is always a community to join. It’s the ultimate student experience.
Dislikes (Internships): Faculty are 5/5; they are approachable mentors with open-door policies. I love the unique focus on computational modelling using MATLAB. The staff is truly global, hailing from Europe to Asia, ensuring a diverse and world - class learning experience.

Best when students who are really interested in leaning new things seriously
Tips: Honestly, if you're looking at Northumbria, the biggest thing is just being ready for the pace of it all. The campus is right in the heart of Newcastle, which is honestly amazing for the nightlife or just grabbing a coffee, but it’s definitely a bit of a whirlwind at first. I’d say you really have to stay on top of your own work—the tutors are great and super easy to talk to, but they definitely expect you to take the lead on things. Also, don’t just stick to your own department. There’s a massive 'family' vibe here, especially if you get stuck into the clubs or the union, and it makes settling in way easier. It’s a really diverse place, too, so you’ll meet people from all over. Just be ready for the cold—the North is no joke! But yeah, it’s a solid choice if you want a balance between a serious course and a really lively social scene.

There are many cultural events on-campus. The faculty are highly approachable.
Tips: The university has advanced learning equipment and a world class faculty system, making it the best university for all international students who are coming to study abroad. The university also has top-class infrastructure facilities and a help desk that provides instant solutions to any problems related to studies, etc. I availed the scholarship which was helpful to me for studies. The faculty are really welcoming and they help us out with our assignments. There are on-campus events, activities, seminars, held for the students to socialise among each other. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
