MSc Occupational Therapy (pre-registration) - Batch of 2027
3.7
Definitely not worth the hype nor amount
Tips: I required an IELTS score of 7 to get admission for my course; however, it was really difficult to cope with native accents initially. A sudden turn from exams to assignments was another area that made it difficult for me. Scholarships are rarely available, and I haven’t met a single person who has actually received published ones. Even though I'm satisfied with university, the amount I paid to be in here seems to be huge when compared to academic quality.

Balanced academic experience with no internship support but good personal growth opportunities.
Tips: One thing you really need to know is that you've got to be pretty proactive about finding internships or part-time work. Career guidance can be a bit hit-or-miss, so doing your own research and networking is honesty a must. You should definitely be ready for the cost of living toou2014it's not cheap. For me, the whole transition was pretty tough at first, mostly just getting used to the new education system and the way people communicate here. There's a big cultural shift in how people interact in class and at work, but I eventually found my feet by just talking to classmates more and getting into the daily rhythm of UK life. I didn't actually get any scholarships and had to self-found everything, which wasn't easy. I looked into some research funding later on, but I just didn't qualify for what was available back then. I'd still tell anyone thinking of coming here to check the university sits early, because scholarships depend on so many random things like your grades or where you're from. Overall, I'm fairly happy with how it turned out. My course gave me some good lab training and teach skills, and just living in the UK has made me way more independent and better at dealing with people from all over.

Sheffield, a city of hope.
Tips: I have lived by myself before so chores were not a challenge to me. I didn't grow up in a traditional and conservative home so not much of a cultural shift. I received a 2000 scholarship that was approved in my acceptance letter. Overall, I'm glad I'm here.
Likes (Indian Food): A typical day at the university is just attending classes, lunch and then back home. There are a few events on campus organised by the Hallam Students' Union (HSU). The first 2 weeks of joining, we had welcome week events lined up for us to get acquaint to the university and union activities, clubs and societies.
Dislikes (Safety): The teaching faculty is very approachable and helps us with everything through the course and modules. The weekly schedule is set and they adhere to it and assist us with any help that we need. The faculty is quite diverse even in terms of nationality.

Good academics and job options.
Tips: In the beginning, it is difficult to adapt. After a while, you get used to your new environment. On the basis of my past academics, I got a scholarship of 2000 pounds.
Likes (Safety): There's good safety here. Police are patrolling all the time and they take strict action against safety purposes. My experience is so good because I also come back from my shifts late at night, but I never face any safety issues.
Dislikes (Indian Food): It is quite difficult to find Indian restaurants, especially North Indian restaurants. There are only two or three Indian restaurants here, but their food is not very tasty, and it’s too expensive to eat out. I prefer to cook my own food.

Experience at Sheffield Hallam University
Tips: I would recommend students to be bold and confident when they come to a different country. Not to take part in any illegal activities. Work only for the hours allowed and concentrate more on improving the skills for the post-graduate work. Start applying early. Enjoy your time here and also be cautious.
Likes (Part time work): When I came to UK there were so many opportunity for part time. However, when more number of students came in the opportunity declined exponentially. Students are allowed to work for only 20 hours. So I used to work part time on weekends and work on my college assignments and applied for the jobs whilst at university.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are no proper restaurants like a typical Indian restaurant. I would say it's better to cook your own meal to save. If you want to dine outside then it would cost you around 10-15 which is 1000- 1500 rupees. And a normal subway would cost 6 pounds. So I would definitely recommend learning basic cooking before coming to any foreign country.

Try to embrace the cultural differences.
Tips: There is always a cultural difference when travelling to a different country. I would say embrace that difference and make this time to blend into the system. There are multiple scholarships, I would say they were difficult to get but it's always worth the try.
Likes (Public transportation): University is located at the heart of the city. So the public transportation is very reliable. There are city buses, trains and trams throughout the city which makes transportation easy and from this, you can actually save a lot of money. Bus offers a discount price for students which is 13 per ride.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I would say there is recession going on throughout the world. There are many companies that are willing to sponsor jobs but for freshers it's quite competitive. It is better to come with the job experience in hand for easy access to the job market. However, if the right skill and confidence is there you are a winner wherever you go.

Affordable and the best college!
Tips: Students should do research about the modules of their courses. They should check ranking of the university according to their chosen course. Do they want to live in a bigger city or a cosmopolitan city because Sheffield doesn't have so much to offer as compared to London and other big cities?
Likes (Value for money): Sheffield city is the 4th biggest city of United Kingdom and it is very cheap compared to others like Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Essex, Reeding and London. Quality of life is also very good with less population and less traffic. No crime is there. Everything is so cheap.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food isn't available so easily including the Indian groceries. When I came to this college, the whole country was under national lockdown and because of that, the options for food and groceries were so limited that I had to suffer a lot but now, the things have changed. Lockdown restrictions have been removed and now lots of options are available to go out and get whatever we want.

I loved my time at Hallam
Tips: Do avail yourself of any scholarship if you can; there's a fun & serious environment too; you'll love it there. Its location is 10/10; every other facility is available close by, so it's SAFE. Students are very helpful; we literally had a pickup service from the airport to the university, and they helped us book a cab for our stays.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Supportive, polite, friendly & easy to understand. I had failed one whole module in the first semester, but the staff was very supportive during remedial classes and pushed me to pass in the re-exam. They also made sure I actually understood the research methods modules.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There was no placement for my course, and the job offers were tough to get into despite applying to 100s. I had applied by the end time of my course, but there was no revert from the employer for a very long time despite following up for 2 weeks. No single reverts from any job applied there.

Diverse learning environment.
Tips: They should be prepared to work part time and have reliable skill sets. Students need to keep in mind the work culture and the type of studies for which they are pursuing. Great communication and the basics of finance will make your life easy. The most important thing is cooking which is much needed.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport connectivity is good across the city. And one should enjoy travelling through trams and trains. Bus service is also good. Travelling through Ola and Uber will cost you a fortune so better to get a rail pass or travel by bus. Cycling is also a good option.
Dislikes (Internships): There are no internship opportunities. You will need to do part time jobs and make a living out of it. Please prepare yourself to know at least the basics of communication and customer service. People are helpful and connections will help you to get a job.

Difficult at the start but the best experience throughout.
Tips: At the start, it will be a little difficult to manage everything at the same time. However, as time went by, it became a beautiful journey and a good experience overall. It was fun trying out a new culture and a totally different approach to education. However, it would have been better if I had done a little research on the pattern of study before starting.
Likes (Post study jobs): Very few companies offer sponsor visas, which makes it difficult to apply for jobs. Also, companies often require applicants to have a driver's license, which makes it difficult for freshers to get a job.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking myself because of the different food choices. There are a lot of Indian restaurants to go to once in a while with a lot of food options but are a little expensive. Also, there are a lot of Indian shops to get the ingredients to cook.

University that nurtured both intellect and career.
Tips: If you're thinking about coming to Sussex, you should know that the way they actually teach and support you here is easily the best part of the whole experience. I've studied elsewhere, but the professors and tutors here are on another level—they’re incredibly approachable, down-to-earth, and they don't treat you like just another number in a lecture hall. The classes are set up so you actually get to participate and speak up, rather than just listening to someone drone on at a screen. On top of the academic side, the uni takes mental health and student well-being seriously. Having solid, easy-to-access support systems right here on campus makes a massive difference when the stress of assignments starts piling up. It honestly gives you a massive safety net and makes the transition to living and studying in the UK so much easier to handle.

On campus part time work is available but only a few get it.
Tips: University life helps you learn in a lot of ways, especially helps us learn the value of money. When I first came to the UK I was covering everything I spent back to AED but then I realised it might seem expensive but in the UK it's the average cost a student pays. Scholarships are available at the university but I didn't apply for them. I am really satisfied with my University as I didn't face any trouble during my time there and everything went perfectly.
Likes (Part time work): On campus part time work is available but only a few get it. But if you check off campus there are a lot of opportunities for students. I was able to manage my academics and part time job easily as I had no lectures on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gave me the option to work. The average pay currently in the UK is 12 pounds per hour.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian restaurants cost a lot in the UK. In the same way, there are very less options for Indian food available in Brighton. A proper Indian meal would cost you about 20 pounds minimum. I would prefer cooking myslef but never got the time as I was busy with sports in university.

It is the university of opportunities.
Tips: When I came to the UK, I was homesick, but after a few days it went away. There are a lot of societies in the University of Sussex to join, and you feel like coming home to a culture you get used to as you go by. I got a 3000 pounds scholarship for my good performance in academics in bachelor's.
Likes (Safety): First of all, the University of Sussex is in a safe location in Brighton. It is such a vibrant location, and there are a lot of security personnel on call if you need any help. I have not faced any issues till now. Everything is a good experience in Brighton, lots of part time jobs and safety, no negative.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Since the UK has made tough rules, it has been very difficult to get a sponsored job. I recommend getting experience in India and then coming. In my course, supply chain and logistics management, there are various roles from procurement to logistics to supply chain and the basic salary starts from 25000 pounds to 35000 pounds a year.

Sussex is great for a fun master's year, but don't expect it to change your life.
Tips: I received the Sussex India + Business scholarship, which provided approximately 8000 off my tuition. I stayed in Northfield, which is the nicest place to stay on campus. In 2022, the annual accommodation fee there was 6000. The university has built newer, more modern accommodations since then. Culturally, I think Indians would fit in well; the university has one of the highest ratios of international students, especially Indians. There's even an Asian grocery store on campus called Taj. Regarding my degree, I don't think it has helped me much in my career or broadened my general knowledge. I work as a senior researcher for a strategy and insights agency. Some courses were interesting and challenging, but, from what I know, most of the good staff have left.
Likes (Safety): Lots of campus security, minimal crime in the city and on campus, very friendly students and staff. I never felt unsafe as a young woman, and Brighton definitely has a great nightlife and party culture, so you can definitely indulge in that life and not feel unsafe.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don't believe one would gain too much from this university/master's course that would help them receive sponsorship besides their own merit. For instance, my course did not have any placements, and in general, career fairs are few. But what it does offer is loads of extracurricular and part-time opportunities, so I really made the most of them and gained loads of experience in soft skills and career-adjacent work that has helped me land a job + sponsorship.

Tips: It was very smooth as people here were really welcoming and you can join so many societies to socialise. I did not but there are multiple available to students. Love the course and the country as a whole. However the sky high cost of living and the unreliable weather.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus features convenient bus stops throughout with free inter-campus travel available for students. Additionally it is seamlessly connected to a train station just outside and student passes help reduce travel cost significantly.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I'd say it's fairly high as I've secured a placement which adds some valuable experience and gives me an edge. Personally I don't wish to settle in the UK long-term it's not something I aspire to or see aligning with my future goals.

Not worth the money. The faculty doesn't teach much.
Tips: I got a scholarship of around 3000. The job market is tough and if you have experience, that would be a plus point. In my situation, I don't have experience, so I have a lot of struggles. It is not worth it to spend 18 lakhs and the faculty doesn't teach much. They just get the PowerPoint presentation and display it and they read the presentation from the screen. But there are many resources on campus where I spend a lot of time reading. I am not satisfied with this university.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is very good because there are two major universities in Brighton and Inor university where there are many facilities like a library, canteen and so on, where we can spend lots of time and people come from different cultures and regions. We get to know about lots of different cultures, which is a great experience.

Adjusting to life and study in the UK.
Tips: Moving to a new country, one definitely experiences a culture shock. One major culture shock that Indian students might experience is being polite to strangers. Using phrases like Thank you, Have a nice day, etc., and being considerate towards others are part of everyday interactions. One also needs to adjust to the climatic condition. It's also important to socialise and make new friends for a healthy mental life. Many universities offer a number of scholarships to students, hence, it's better to check the website and apply for the relevant scholarship opportunity during the application. I received a 2000 GBP scholarship, which is available to all the Indian students at my university. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the university, its faculty, course structure, and additional learning resources. I loved the work culture in the UK. However, getting used to the weather of the UK can be a bit difficult, as there are hardly any sunny days in the UK.
Likes (Indian Food): There are a lot of good Indian Restaurants in Brighton, ranging from North Indian to South Indian, easy takeaways to fine dine restaurants. There are also a few Indian Grocery stores like Taj, where you can find Indian snacks and vegetables. For vegetarians, there are many options, too.
Dislikes (Value for money): Undoubtedly, the university has a big library with great resources as well as top-quality research equipment. However there were far too many teacher strikes in 2021 which had an impact on our lectures, practical sessions, etc. I found this unfair for the international students. It is important to note, however, that these strikes were happening in many universities across England.

University of Sussex has great student life and the university hosts many fun events.
Tips: Students should not convert things to INR and then purchase them. Your necessities are important, so go according to that. Build connections and get jobs as it's easier that way. Scholarships are hard to get, but you need to have a good genuine reason for it. You need vitamins during the winter because of the early sunset. Try not to fall sick. Doctor appointments are not easy. Finally, other cultural changes can be learned as you experience them. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences here.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I like living in the UK, but I don't think I would want to move here permanently. The economy is not doing well, and things are getting more expensive every year. On the other hand, if you can get a job here, the options for settlement are good, and life after retirement is good because of the many benefits for old people.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships and jobs can be hard to come by when you're on a student visa. However, if you're dedicated and focused, you can find a decent job. London is close to Brighton, so it's worth travelling there to look for opportunities. There are also some opportunities in Brighton itself. If you want a job, you'll need to build connections, and sometimes a PSW can help with that as well.

Tips: The university is great and supportive. The education is outstanding. The people are amazing. But the country is not great. The weather is terrible and everything is very expensive. Only if this college was in some other country it would have been 100/100 recommend
Likes (Quality of faculty): The teachers are super friendly. They are industry professionals with insane amounts of knowledge and insights. They make extra efforts to deliver the best quality of education. They take feedback very seriously, make sure to improve on the feedback received and are extremely helpful.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job market is not great in the UK and it is really difficult to find a job and no active placement cells are present in the university. The average package directly is also just not enough. Relevant jobs are also not available. Please be ready to struggle to find a job.

Good academic experience with an Independent learning environment.
Tips: My transition was smooth, but I notice a cultural shift in teaching style and daily life, especially more independence and direct communication. I received a scholarship of £5000 from the university. Overall I am satisfied with my university teaching facility as well as living in Brighton.
Likes (Indian Food): You will get lots of options in Brighton city center as well as on campus; you will get nice food. There are plenty of places you can go, such as lanes; there are lots of Indian restaurants available in Brighton as well as Korean, Chinese, and Spanish. You never get bored in Brighton.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I have rated 2 because recent changes in sponsorship rules over the last two years have made it very difficult to land a sponsorship job in the UK. I do not currently plan to apply for permanent residence because I have a plan to come back to India and work in India.

Lovely weather and a great place to study and enjoy.
Tips: There are tons of scholarships available for Indian students to attend the University of Sussex, so everyone should apply and think of them as discounts. The climate here is amazing, especially compared to other parts of the UK. I’m really pleased with this school.
Likes (Value for money): Sussex has one of the highest QS rankings in the UK and offers the lowest tuition costs. The location in Sussex has a great climate and lots of beaches, too. It has plenty of internships and other work experience opportunities as well.
Dislikes (Internships): They are quite helpful, but internship opportunities are tough to find in the UK at the moment. As a result, you'll have to spend a lot of time applying to hundreds of places. In fact, competition for internships has increased considerably over the years. Still, the internships are relevant to my field of study.
