Uni Stuttgart- worth paying 1800 Euros as fees?
Tips: The initial few weeks take time to adjust to the surroundings, especially if you come during winter, shorter days are stressful, and you wouldn't want to go out that often, so my suggestion would be to do the opposite, and you'll make better contacts. Also, Deutschland stipendium plays you 300 euros every month, which is worth it, especially since it basically covers your semester fees.
Likes (Student Life): There are lots of student clubs, to name a few, STUVUS, AEGEE, and Fachgruppe for each department. The events they organize and the freedom you'd have when you want to organize something is surreal. For example, wanting to celebrate Diwali away from home is real, and the international office at the university does provide you with that freedom.
Dislikes (Value for money): Germany is known for quality and affordable education. Though fees are being increased in several universities, universities in the state of Baden-Württemberg charge an access fee of 1500 Euros especially for international students, which does feel unfair.

Good Academics, Tough Coursework
Tips: Students need to be ready to face a tough curriculum and lots of self-study, which is the case for my course. Adapting to the German culture and lifestyle was an effort, especially due to language, living independently and budgeting. In general, I like the university and course because of the high-level technical education and computational approach. The study process is good but students must be ready to invest much effort into self-study as the workload may be heavy. It is also necessary to arrange finances well and look for Working Student or HiWi jobs in advance since it may be complicated.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The lecturers are very knowledgeable and approachable to the students. The teaching technique comprises an already established theoretical concept of computational techniques and relevant examples. Though the classes may look difficult to understand, they are simplified by the faculty and require self-study to comprehend. There is a need for personal work in the projects and simulations. The faculty is highly diverse internationally.
Dislikes (Value for money): There are free public universities in Germany where students may not have to pay around u20ac1684 per semester in tuition fees. Considering the tuition cost along with the relatively high cost of living in the city, I would consider the overall value for money to be average.

University of Stuttgart - Review
Tips: The thing that is clear is that knowledge of the German language is a must. It is not required, as the language of instruction in the universities is English. However, it will help with survival and getting employment after graduation. - Remember that this university charges a tuition fee of 1500 EUR/Sem from non-EU students, and you can opt out of taking the course in case you feel that it will cause financial problems for you. - There are certain courses which you might find difficult to finish on time, or you might even fail in them. In this way, you will need more than two years to complete the entire course. - Do not let the fear of difficulty in a course keep you away from studying it just because the seniors have made you believe that the course is difficult. Go for the course if you are interested in the contents of the course. - I have received a scholarship, but there are lots of nationwide and statewide scholarships, and the university helps you get them. - Overall, I am extremely happy with my stay at this university and in this country.
Likes (Safety): The city itself is very secure (apart from some shady areas). You can freely walk in the city at 2- 3 AM without being bothered by anyone. I personally have never felt unsafe in the city. - There are generally no gate/blocks in the university buildings, you are free to go into any class without restrictions (of course, there are exceptions to this). This is something that was a culture shock to me, as that is very uncommon in India.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are a lot of Indian restaurants in the area, but not all of them are good. It's a Germany-wide problem, not just for this city. The menu is the same everywhere, and most of the time its land - adjusted to the European palate. - On average, you can expect a bill of 20-25EUR per person, depending on the kind of restaurant you go to - I usually cook myself but go out on some occasions too.

Life at University of Stuttgart
Tips: In general, Stuttgart is a beautiful city, and the University of Stuttgart is great, there are a lot of work opportunities during or after graduation. It, of course, costs much more compared to other technical universities in Germany due to its location in the state of Baden Wu00fcrttemberg. However, it can be a good investment for most people because there are plenty of companies in the Stuttgart area. A lot of people from different parts of Germany move to Stuttgart looking for work or an internship. While I have seen a lot of students in different universities doing odd jobs, students at university Stuttgart are mostly involved in teaching jobs in a working student role. There is also a wonderful scholarship opportunity called Deutschland stipendium one can avail of, which gives 300u20ac every month to the winners. Exams can be tough, at least for M.Sc. Electrical Engineering (which is what I am studying). Most students end up taking 3 years to complete 2 years Masters, although it is completely normal from a German point of view. There are excellent research opportunities right on campus, that is something I really appreciate. Lastly, we are very close to countries like France and Switzerland, one must take advantage of this and visit whenever possible.
Likes (Safety): In general, I feel very safe walking around the city. Even in the evening or in the dark at night, there is a sense of safety. In general, people are nice and welcoming. Very low crime rate or any incident of theft. Especially for women, unlike in India, girls can walk alone at night without being worried of anything. Most people mind their own business.
Dislikes (Value for money): The University of Stuttgart collects about 1700 u20ac per semester. Furthermore, the tuition fees collected do not even include the D-ticket for the month that has to be paid separately. The case is not limited to the University of Stuttgart. All universities in Baden Wu00fcrttemberg collect 1500 u20ac per semester as tuition fees, along with the semester fees that are collected by the individual universities. Given the cost of studies, I think that one can get an equivalent quality of education at other German universities without paying higher tuition fees.

Tips: Academics are quite research-oriented. Someone who is more interested in building hands-on projects rather than preparing for an exam might not like it. Otherwise, the curriculum is built in such a way that one can build their career. Apart from core subjects, students can choose supplementary modules out of 100-200 options, which makes it more flexible.

Review.
Tips: Students need to be open-minded. Take part in local cultural events like visiting the bar, attending workshops, and games night. Learning German helps, but the international student community is very large. More likely to spend most of the time in the library or dorms; hence, take whatever opportunity you get to socialise.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Expert faculty for each department. Very easy to get in touch with them. TAs also available. If you're lucky, you can get a one-on-one session with the professors. Industrial connections and projects are also available with the faculty Research driven and with a focus on engineering also.
Dislikes (Indian Food): You will find Italian, Vietnamese and Turkish food restaurants nearby. Not many Indian restaurants; even the ones that are there don't provide a lot of variety. Many grocery stores nearby, so one can definitely buy the raw ingredients and cook Frozen pizza, lasagne, sausage, plenty

University of stuttgart, A place where students can feel like home.
Tips: At the beginning, the first few days are confusing because of the language and culture. You need to figure out the documentation (German bureaucracy), places you can find supplies, friends, etc. How to organise your social life and academic life. But give it some time (1-2 months), you will be a local in no time. And yes, learn German!
Likes (Student Life): It is the best place for students to live, we have a lot of campus bars/common places to enjoy. On top of that, this university has a large number of students as foreign students, so it is a great opportunity to connect with students from all around the world.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Not many restaurants, but a lot of grocery stores where you can buy and cook for yourself. And it is costly to eat outside as a student. So it makes more sense to cook at home. There are some restaurants, but the food is not that great, to be honest. All the ingredients are available in the grocery stores.

University of Stuttgart experience
Tips: There are many ups and downs, regardless of how prepared you are, like visa extensions getting delayed, not finding accommodation in time, health issues, or several reasons that might motivate and affect the studies. So before coming to Germany in general, students should be prepared mentally and emotionally and have a straightforward reason set in mind for coming here. Lack of motivation will affect mental, emotional, and academic health.
Likes (Safety): Despite being a big city, Stuttgart is very safe relative to other big cities. Good public transportation across the city allows you to go and hang out anywhere you like within the city and come back safely by night. Public transportation runs on Sun-Thur from 5.00AM to 1.00AM. On Friday and Saturday it runs overnight as well.
Dislikes (Student Life): There are not many college clubs or active social life in college. If you know good German, you can inculcate a bit, but there aren't many events happening in the college. Students usually hang out in groups, and there is no graduation ceremony as well. So basically college is just where you develop academically and get your degree.

A Challenging and Rewarding Engineering Journey at the University of Stuttgart
Tips: If you're planning to join Stuttgart for Mechanical Engineering, the main thing to know is that German is non-negotiable. B1 or B2 German makes your day-to-day life and social integration 10x easier, even if you speak fluent English. I didn't take any scholarships and self-fund my studies here. The program itself is demanding, but the practical exposure is incredible—hands-on workshops like StutCAD give you real engineering skills, and being located right in Germany’s automotive capital opens up huge career opportunities.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent immigration gets a 3/5 purely because of the administrative nightmare at the Stuttgart Ausländerbehörde. The path itself for engineering grads is clear on paper, but the local immigration office is notoriously understaffed and painfully slow. You can wait over a year for a settlement permit (Niederlassungserlaubnis) while your application sits in total radio silence for months. Bureaucracy aside, my actual chances of settling long-term as a mechanical engineer are great—especially with local heavyweights like Mercedes-Benz and Porsche right here. I'd still stay in Germany permanently because the career growth in the Stuttgart region is top-tier, but dealing with city paperwork will test your patience.

No regrets about the course and the city.
Tips: Stuttgart is a fantastic place to be a student, but building a solid group of friends early on makes all the difference in keeping university life fun and manageable. On the funding side, definitely throw your hat in the ring for the Deutschlandstipendium. It’s extremely competitive since so many high-achieving students apply, but it’s 300€ a month if you land it, so it's worth the effort. Overall, I’ve been really happy with both my course curriculum and living in Stuttgart.

The best. You get everything you wish for here.
Tips: Even though the course is in English. I would recommend learning German for a better and easier life. Without German, it will be hard to get a part-time job, as it is their main language for communication. So be prepared rather than regretting. Other than that, it's all good here.
Likes (Value for money): It's under TU9, and its reputation really meets the quality of education. Rest it all depends how much efforts you put in. Don't overthink; come here, learn, grow, and live up to your dreams. It's one of the public university in one of the good cities in Germany, so opportunities are here but how to get them depends on how much hard work you put in.
Dislikes (Internships): It depends on students—how hard they work for it. It's very competitive here, so learn German to excel. The university offers a job fair twice a year, which can help you to get a part-time job during studies. And yes, there are many internships available for all kinds of fields.

A look into Uni Stuttgart
Tips: If you're making the move to the University of Stuttgart you definitely need to brace yourself for some serious initial culture shock—changing countries is never completely seamless. But the great thing about this campus is that it’s packed with other international students, so you are almost guaranteed to run into fellow Indians who can help you find your footing and figure out the local system during those first few weeks. You should also keep an eye out for financial aid and specialized campus initiatives; there is always a realistic shot at landing a scholarship or getting involved in targeted university programs like FEMTECH, which are fantastic for building a solid network and getting your name out there. Outside of the university itself, Stuttgart is a fantastic, highly international city with a ton of stuff to do. Looking back, I’m genuinely happy with my decision to come here and incredibly grateful for how the whole experience turned out.
Likes (Internships): When it comes to actually applying for or landing an internship, the university leaves you completely out to dry—there is basically zero guidance or support from their side. The only reason you can actually survive is because Stuttgart is a massive industrial powerhouse. Being surrounded by so many massive manufacturing and tech giants means the opportunities for technical part-time work and proper internships are way higher here than if you were stuck in some quiet, tiny college town. Even though the competition for these roles is an absolute bloodbath, the sheer volume of companies in the area means you can definitely find a job, get your foot in the door, and build up some solid local experience.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is very diverse and are knowledgeable. But according to my experience, it felt like the university took in more students than the ideal number of students they could manage. It is very competitive to find a research project or a HiWi or even a good topic for the thesis.

3/5: Better/Latest Curriculum and Job Support Needed for International Students
Tips: Honestly, you just have to study hard and get your German sorted early on. If you're coming to the University of Stuttgart, you've really got to put yourself out there to actually get the local culture and all those tiny everyday nuances. Especially with the way things are set up here—there’s zero chance you’ll find one single, magic platform where all the student opportunities are just handed to you. You genuinely have to be proactive and chase stuff down on your own.
Likes (Public transportation): As the public transportation in Germany is covered under the Deutschland Ticket, you can move across Germany under a 60-euro ticket. Public transportation is generally reliable, with not too many problems faced, except for RE while traveling from one city to another. However, occasional delays have prevented me from giving it 5.
Dislikes (Value for money): Yes, being a university under BW, this is one of the most expensive universities in Germany after TUM. So I would recommend that anyone think about ROI before applying to this university. Also, as one has to put lots of effort into their own to understand the curriculum, get a part-time job, and also explore other critical areas for self-development and learning, I would rate this university 2 on value of money, as my experience with this university was quite bad. But kindly take it with a pinch of salt as each individual has a different opinion.

Personal and academic growth.
Tips: The cultural Shifts in Germany are mostly emotional and physical. The weather, food and language are some things that took time for me. I have not applied for any scholarships but the University offers different types of Scholarships that students can apply for. Getting the scholarship does not totally depend on academics but also on extracurricular activities and volunteer work. To be honest, I got much interest in education after joining my University and the course. I learnt a lot from writing the paper to learning Soft Skills from fellow students and professors. Through the systems in my University, it has really developed a thirst inside me to be more educated and be in a better position.
Dislikes (Internships): Stuttgart has diverse Industries. Home to Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Bosch, etc and because of these big players many industries have evolved and developed in the State, creating more opportunities and making the most of the research for Germany. There are many Industry and University Collaborations happening and they have strong university research, creating many internship opportunities despite high competition.

Theory and research-oriented study program.
Tips: In Germany, there is a division when it comes to higher education - 'University' and 'University of applied sciences'. University focuses more on research and university of applied sciences focus on applied knowledge. Since Stuttgart is a University, it is more theoretical. It is completely in our responsibility to gain experience through clubs, Formula Student or similar things. So it might be stressful, but it is manageable.
Likes (Safety): Germany is generally safe compared to other European countries. Immediate help on and off campus from mentors and tutors. It is easy to get help even from the police or the general public in case of emergencies. There are lots of international affairs people in the university or general coordinators who make sure students feel safe on campus.
Dislikes (Part time work): On campus part time jobs are extremely scarce to find. Also the competition is higher. The pay is relatively very low compared to off campus part time jobs. Since International students who already pay large tuition fee, they won't be choosing on campus jobs unless they are really desperate for a part time job.

Research oriented prestigious university.
Tips: This is a university oriented towards research. Good mathematical skills are expected. There will be some cultural differences in lectures but that will be on the positive side. I did not apply for any scholarships. However, you can look for DAAD scholarships. I liked the course, teaching material and especially the professors.
Likes (Safety): The city is very well connected through public transport via the university campus. I have lived there for 3 years and never heard a concern about safety. You could see police patrolling every in the campus at night sometimes. There are many helpline numbers for emergencies. However it is always advised not to travel alone in secluded areas which is a general advice valid for every place. There is not much of a nightlife in the city, so there is not much you could do during the dark hours.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job market is pretty bad at the moment. Moreover, even with good German language skills the opportunities are too less. Work sponsorship is not needed. You just need to find a job with a minimum salary range then you can get the EU blue card which is a work permit. Generally, after graduation, you can get into a PhD programme, of course you will have a stipend which is approximately 55,000. So it is pretty decent. Apart from this you can work in the industry with an average salary of 60,000 however, it is difficult to find one at the moment. Internships are easy to get but a full-time job is hard.

Challenging but rewarding journey at University of Stuttgart.
Tips: Students should be prepared for a rigorous, mathematically intensive programme. COMMAS is research driven, so self study and good fundamental knowledge in mathematics and programming are important though not necessary. Administrative processes in Germany can be slow, so patience and planning are essential.
Likes (Safety): Student residences have controlled entry systems. I have always felt safe moving around Stuttgart even when it's midnight. The police presence is consistent even when it's too late. The city is generally calm, well organised. I have never had any negative experience so far.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The teaching is highly theoretical and research oriented. The faculty is not very diverse in nationality. They are often very busy with research and projects. Some professors use advanced simulation examples, which is a unique strength. Getting quick response from the professors can sometimes be difficult.

The university is good and friendly.
Tips: Sometimes there are cultural socks but it is a matter of time as time passes, it becomes adaptable. There are scholarships like Deutschlandstipendium which offer 300 euros per month as a scholarship. It's a research university, so if you want to do research, it is good for you.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is efficient as most people use bus and trains rather than their private vehicles. Students are not offered a city ticket but you need to buy a monthly ticket from the German train authority but it costs 40 euros per month only.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Generally, the market is not good right now otherwise, in a normal scenario placements are good. The job roles vary from design to development to project management. The package goes for a fresher from 50,000 euros per year to 65,000 euros and for an experienced a bit higher than this.

My honest take on studying in Stuttgart.
Tips: Well, students should know that Stuttgart is a big city and you might feel a bit lost in the beginning. If you are someone who likes European architecture and buildings, I will have to disappoint you because Stuttgart is not the most beautiful city when it comes to architecture. They do have a lot of industrial opportunities which also comes with a lot of competition from other international students. Unfortunately you also won't have the most international environment in your classes if you decide to pursue engineering here because mostly there are Indians so you might have to put yourself more out there for sports and extra curricular activities so that you can interact with more international people. We do have a lot of nature spots here. If you like nature and forest and hiking, you might like it here, especially on the Vaihingen campus at the University of Stuttgart.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty here is highly qualified and they have themselves studied from the world's best institutions. They are quite passionate at what they do. The research institutes also offer a wide range of thesis topics which can be pursued in order to fulfil your areas of expertise in the course of your Masters studies.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of permanent settling in the city of Stuttgart are less because the Visa office has really long waiting days. If you need to switch your visa from student to job seeker or a full time employee, it is a very overwhelming process. You could work in Stuttgart but it is highly recommended to shift to nearby cities in order to have smooth paperwork regarding the bureaucracy.

MSc Computer Science at UCL
Tips: Huge cultural shift. Students/ professors/ staff are very professional, and the same is expected of you. The way of teaching is very different, one must study and be prepared for the lecture, as they are interactive. I did receive a scholarship based on merit. Very happy with my experience, will recommend 10/10.
Likes (Internships): There is a wide variety of opportunities available when it comes to internships and good mentors, depending on how much work we put into them. There are a lot of organizations that offer internships in different sectors, but getting one may involve a lot of networking and hard work. We will give you an edge by using your career advisor.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): There are however, various means by which one may go about becoming a permanent resident in the UK. It is a very hard thing to be sponsored by an employer and stay permanently in the UK. Most employers do not have any problems at all employing graduates using the PSW visa method, and thus this is a good opportunity for you to demonstrate your skills and experience.

A challenging but rewarding experience in the heart of London
Tips: I had a smooth transition to UCL. Although studying in London is very different from school because of the independence between time and academics now. One of the biggest positives is how international and diverse the university is, so you meet people from a huge number of backgrounds. Overall, I am very satisfied. The workload of my course is very intense, but it provides a very strong technical foundation for your career.
Likes (Student Life): Student life at UCL is one of the best parts of studying here because there is always something happening alongside academics. My normal day involves lectures, studying around campus, and spending time with friends, as well as getting involved in societies and other activities, with regular social events. As Punjab Society president, I will say this was definitely very enjoyable for anyone coming from India.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are part-time job opportunities on and off campus, but those on campus can be highly competitive. At UCL, students can have part-time opportunities as ambassadors, administration, and events staff. In addition to that, as the university is located in Central London, there can be part-time job opportunities in the retail and hospitality industry. The secret is to keep the hours down.

UCL East review - what nobody tells you
Tips: The Indian community is not that good. There are a lot of British Indians in all these communities, they do not like traditional Indians that much. There is friction and a whole lot of bias in these societies. Apart from that scholarships are really hard to get, exams are really chill, friendships depend on your courses and campuses. I would say, if you can then please apply for the Bloomsbury campus as that would really provide you with the campus experience and a fun college life. Any other campus not so much.
Likes (Public transportation): All 3 UCL campuses have insane tube connectivity. I would say London in general is very safe on the tubes, budget friendly and time efficient. All campuses are only away by max 40 mins and it is a comfortable journey. The tube will be your best friend so get an oyster card to get more discounts on your travel.
Dislikes (Value for money): I feel the tuition fee is over priced for the resources that I am getting, especially for an art course. The thinking is amazing, the faculty is great, the course is brilliant! But not anything I couldn’t learn from YouTube. Not worth paying 44,000 pounds a year on only tuition fee. Also the course is at the east campus and not Bloomsbury, so it feels a bit secluded.

Best in the UK for both best education and that University Life
Tips: I love the multicultural and open-minded thoughts that the whole campus shares regarding everything, and all academics will help you in the best possible ways for your ideas. Very satisfied with the course and university and would recommend this as a path to anyone who wants to experience abroad education.
Likes (Part time work): A lot of opportunities within the university, which are posted on university's website accessible to all students, as well as numerous opportunities in the local market Unless you are interested in regular long-term hardware competitions for which you have to spend countless nights soldering and debugging code. Part-time work is manageable. The avg payout is about £10.50 per hour for both uni and local market jobs.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Not likely in the current political scenario where permanent residency is being lengthened with a 10-year baseline wait. Also, employers here now tend to hire only if you are a citizen or PR holder. Though, if successful in getting a job post-graduation, then PR is obtained in 5 years.

An experience of a lifetime if you're willing to take charge
Tips: If you don't have a scholarship, I would recommend working part-time. It's pretty doable and also a good break from studies. - London is great in terms of public transport. Try to have a basic understanding before going (Oyster card, bus, underground, train, etc.). Otherwise, it may get a bit overwhelming. I would recommend the TFL app.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty gets a high rating because UCL professors are top-tier researchers who are surprisingly accessible during office hours. The level of teaching and depth you get in lectures is incredible. Just keep in mind that UCL relies heavily on self-directed study. Professors expect you to take ownership—they give you the framework and primary literature in class, but going beyond the reading list and digging deeper is entirely up to you.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent immigration gets a low rating because staying in the UK long-term after UCL is a complete minefield. Sure, you get the 2-year Graduate Route visa to work post-graduation, but transitioning from that to a Skilled Worker visa is ridiculously tough. UK salary thresholds keep rising, and a lot of companies flat-out refuse to sponsor international candidates because of the administrative costs. I'd love to settle here if the right sponsored role came along, but as an international student, the immigration policy makes it a constant uphill struggle.

​Navigating Academics, Funding, and Life as an International Student at UCL
Tips: Students should know more about the coursework, as well as the academic hierarchy It's explicitly written on the website; having good knowledge will actually help you in setting faster (with respect to courses and academics). Personally, there was no cultural shock, as London was pretty much different nationalities, including Indians in huge numbers. I got a departmental scholarship, which is academically promising. Other bursaries are more like financially based; your parents' financial status comes into play. I felt this was one of the best choices I have made because of its research quality, multidimensional approach, and quality.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is really good in this university, since I am on the clinical side; we are mostly within the hospital grounds, despite that, student volunteers organize variety of programmes every week, specific meetups and leisure parties A lot of events are organized throughout the academic year; that even includes taking students on field trips, and I am specifically part of the football club, Indian dance society, and reading club.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are quite hard to find, especially given the city situation. As it's London, there's massive crowd pull, and likewise opportunities are very competitive Ideally, part-time jobs are manageable when you have your coursework; once after your thesis it becomes little tricky The average payout here in London is 14 pounds per hour.

A great adventure to explore
Tips: The university and country are good, but they have asked for help because, unlike in India, the help is readily available. People are expected to be more independent. In the university the classes are not spoon-feeding like in India. You have to prepare for the classes in order to understand and participate in the classes.
Likes (Indian Food): I gave the local dining scene top marks because King’s Cross and Bloomsbury are stacked with options. You’re definitely not stuck with basic takeout—just a short walk from UCL, there’s Thai street food, Greek gyros, Lebanese wraps, Turkish kebabs, and proper Indian dishes everywhere. When you need something fast between classes, Canopy Market and King’s Cross station are ideal. Pulling off a filling meal for £10 to £15 in Central London is surprisingly doable. From grab-and-go shawarmas to sit-down treats at Dishoom or a simple biryani, you'll never run out of good spots.
Dislikes (Part time work): Since I was pursuing an LL.M., there were not a lot of part-time work options available for me in the university, nor did I do any part-time jobs. So, I have no information about it. But the internship opportunities at law firms and international firms and organizations were great and always given to us.

Scholarship and career coach connections.
Tips: I am a recipient of the India Excellence Scholarship and I would highly recommend that students apply for scholarships and there are certain trips that they should know before coming here. Connection with the career coaches is very important from the start.
Likes (Indian Food): Back in my home country, I heard that there are very less options for vegetarian or vegan people, but that is not the case, even if each restaurant has just one or two vegetarian options, they are always present plus, it is in very much proximity to the campus, so in brakes, you can go and get yourself a bowl or something to eat.
Dislikes (Value for money): If you can apply for a scholarship, it would be better because even if back in India, you feel it's a small amount that you have received a scholarship, or there are different types of scholarships. Here which you can apply for. For example, the director scholarship which gives you a large amount off.

My first semester here was quite overwhelming but things fell in place soon after. There is plenty of opportunity if you put yourself out there. Sponsorship has become quite rare now so make sure that you're mentally prepared for all possibilities. I feel the tuition fee for all international students is on the higher end especially when you compare it to local students but the scholarships can make a difference. Also the quality of education has matched up and if you secure a job afterwards, it seems justified.

UCL is amazing, in terms of staff, faculty, and crowd.
Tips: Just be open to making memories, don't stress a lot about employment, and keep putting in regular efforts. Enjoy time at UCL because usually classes are only 3-4 days a week, go out with your friends. UCL has a lot of good and student friendly bars, and a lot of food joints as well. No cultural difference, UCL is very acceptable, and students from all over the world come to UCL.
Likes (Student Life): UCL is amazing in terms of staff faculty and crowd. It is located in the heart of London which is the main campus. They have various societies and different events happening almost every day. I was a part of the UCL pro bono project and it was really nice. I participated in 2 to 3 dance events as well and everything was beyond good. UCL is good in terms of getting the right exposure a good crowd and making memorable memories.
Dislikes (Internships): The university provides guidance and support to students however current UK market is challenging. Internships are available applications need to be submitted 5-6 months before and the process requires rigorous and continuous effort. Universities provide websites but an independent application is more important.

Privileged to be a UCL alumnus.
Tips: I have transitioned. Scholarships are less so you need to work hard. I didn't really experience a cultural shift because I was quite exposed to Western culture and countries since I was a child. I love London and my university; I graduated last month with a Merit overall and a distinction in my dissertation which is also being published, and I work in London now.
Likes (Internships): Whilst I was in college I used to visit libraries, student cafes, we were in Bloomsbury which was the heart of London, so everything was within walking distance. I was the Vice President of the International Public Affairs Society. UCL has 1000s of societies.
Dislikes (Safety): The department is very accessible and accommodating. The word I'd like to use is student friendly. UCL teaching doesn't just give you facts, it makes you learn how to think critically. The teaching faculty is very diverse. It's a global university. There are people from all nationalities.

Diverse college campus and lots of learning opportunities.
Tips: Coming to UCL has been a transformative experience both academically and personally. The transition helped me grow significantly as an individual. Being surrounded by so many bright and passionate people naturally pushes you to think more deeply about your subject and to constantly improve yourself. I didn't feel a major culture shift as everyone at UCL was incredible pathetic welcoming and respectuful which makes adapting much easier. I feel extremely satisfied with my university course and country as a whole. At UCL I had the opportunity to learn from and work with some of the best professors, all of whom were exceptionally supportive and helpful throughout my academic journey making the experience even more rewarding.
Dislikes (Part time work): Although there are good opportunities both on and off campus, balancing them with the intensity of a one-year masters course is a bit challenging. UCL provides plenty of on-campus roles, especially for Bachelor's students, such as student ambassador positions and paid roles within the UCL Students' Union. UCL's career website is also very helpful, through which students can apply for part-time jobs and paid internships. Off-campus jobs are usually in retail, hospitality, customer service, and administrative work. Part-time work becomes more manageable during vacation when there is more time to catch up on studies. The average payout for part-time work in London typically ranges from 12-15 pounds per hour, and on-campus roles often pay slightly higher, around 14-17 pounds per hour.

Tips: The cultural shift is manageable and easy to adjust to. London is a great place with amazing culture and a lot of Indian people. I didn't avail any scholarships. I am satisfied with my university - great course structure, guest lectures, research exposure and strong career support make the experience worthwhile.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport in the UK is highly reliable and well-connected and Citymapper is a true saviour. The campus is linked to the city via buses, tubes, and trains. Transport is convenient, frequent and more expensive than in India, but very efficient and time saving.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK settlement rules are strict and constantly changing. A one year Master's make it hard to study, find internships and secure a sponsored job quickly. Changes depend on finding a role within months post-study, especially as ILR now requires 10 years.

UCL pushes you to be the best version of yourself.
Tips: The transition has been challenging. The workload I have is a lot here but then it's a part of the process. It's a prestigious university and hence it's academically rigorous. The best part is that all I have to do is ask for help whenever I'm struggling and there will be people around me who can guide me and help me with anything. I'm very happy and grateful for the opportunity to be a student at UCL and live in London.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I love the campus and the facilities that are provided. There are many amount of clubs and activities being conducted although I don't get to attend them frequently as I am busy. There are clubs for dance, music, debate, educational, academic, research, cultural linguistic societies and many more. I mostly spend my day attending lectures and catching up on them by studying in the library on campus. I also get to spend time with some of my amazing friends I met here.
Dislikes (Student Life): The faculty is really approachable, especially for my field. The kind of research exposure I'm getting here is phenomenal! The lectures involve the professor talking about their lab's research and its findings. The faculty is very diverse and friendly. They're really approachable for any sort of doubts or queries.

Likes (Indian Food): There are an innumerable number of Indian restaurants in London, and food from any part of India you want. I was very pleasantly surprised by the taste too. On average, a good meal will cost you about 15-20 pounds pp. I prefer cooking at home than going outside.

There are many opportunities to engage and explore.
Tips: Students should know that transitioning into UCL especially the School of Management largely depends on their prior academic environment. For me it was a significant shift because the focus here is much more practical group work, interaction, teamwork and real-world application rather than only lectures or written assignments. From day one classes are highly engaging and you’re encouraged to participate instead of just listening passively. In terms of culture, London is a friendly yet professional place. People here balance warmth and formality very well whether it’s classmates, professors, or even the management team, communication feels open and respectful. Anyone coming from a different cultural or academic background might notice the shift, but it’s easy to adapt. Regarding scholarships, UCL offers limited options directly through the university. Once you receive your offer, they email you the scholarship details. I applied but did not receive one. Still, the process is straightforward. I’m extremely satisfied with my course and the university overall. The only minor drawback is that UCL has three campuses, and most events and societies are centered around Bloomsbury. Since SOM is in Canary Wharf, travel can feel expensive and sometimes makes us feel slightly distant from the main campus vibe. However, the SOM campus itself is stunning being on one of the top floors with panoramic views of London, sunsets, the skyline, Tower Bridge, and the London Eye is something truly special. The course content is well balanced and prepares you for the actual management world. As for the country, the UK, especially London, is welcoming, diverse, and full of opportunities. Living here genuinely feels like fulfilling a dream and gives a strong main character energy.
Likes (Student Life): Even with a busy academic schedule, there are many opportunities to engage and explore. As a management student I have compulsory 3 hour lectures every day and at least once a week I attend seminars or workshops that are optional but very enriching. UCL has three campuses- UCL School of Management where all management lectures happen, Bloomsbury and UCL East. Most social events take place at Bloomsbury. Our SOM campus mainly hosts academic sessions. Student clubs and communities aren’t campus-specific; they are open to all UCL students. There are clubs for arts, sports, music, reading, dance, hiking, cooking, cultural and religious groups, pride communities, and even niche ones like the Cat Club. The vibrancy of the UCL student community and the wide range of opportunities make student life active and enjoyable.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking for myself than eating out. it is affordable and allows me to choose exactly what I want. In Canary Wharf there are a few good Indian restaurants such as Dishoom Kricket IndiGo Rasoi Manjal and Mala by the riverside.

Proud exposure of lifetime.
Tips: The study of my course is more practical based rather than being more theoretical. Always look for the UCL scholarship page. If you are looking forward to joining UCL for your studies, look for the scholarships, as it becomes value for money when you can get a scholarship. Nonetheless, the experience is marvellous at UCL. It carries an attack on my reputation for the money that I have put in. I'm completely satisfied with the outcome.
Likes (Student Life): The student life at UCL is fantastic. It's amazing. It's the best you can get their students from all over the world. There is a lot of cultural diversity. You get to interact with people having an experience of every sort. There are numerous clubs and societies. There is an Indian society as well for the Indian students. Frequent events are on the campus.
Dislikes (Value for money): The fee for the university is quite high. It's on the higher side with a range up to 40 lacs per year. Although I got this scholarship which covers 60% of my tuition fee, it became value for money for me, but if you do not get a scholarship, then it's not value for money.

Resilient, purposeful and introspective.
Tips: I guess I have become more responsible, capable of handling my own finances and life. It’s overwhelming in the beginning, but once you find your ground and you start to make friends, it gets easier with time. Of course, there is a cultural and a mindset shift. The UK is more liberal, you can become your own person and craft your story in your own way.
Likes (Student Life): UCL has a lot to offer if you are ready and proactive to take on the opportunities. There are pro bono projects that you can be part of, social groups and creative societies such as Fashion society, International Politics, Dance, Cycling, Tennis, and travelling. Events vary across meet and greet sessions, career fairs, CV building workshops and some fun pop cultural events as well. I tried to participate in as many extra-curricular projects as I could, whilst balancing studies for my Master's. I stayed in uni halls as they are a great place to meet international people and make friends.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It’s competitive to get a skilled worker job but once you do get it, it gets slightly easier to eventually get a permanent status. I am not sure if I would like to stay in the UK permanently but for the next few years, I definitely do see myself working here. It's been almost 4 years and London feels home now. I like my career transition path but I might or might not eventually move back to Delhi.

Good for personal growth.
Tips: Know what you want to do. Start applying early on. Get your application right. It’s not that easy to get admission here. Once you come here you’ll be overwhelmed by the sheer vastness of the city and the uni, but do not let it intimidate you. Strive to do your best and aim to work here after graduation, so that it’s all worth it.
Likes (Student Life): From classes to pubs to society activities, it’s all great. You get to explore central London, which has a rustic yet modern feel to it. The east campus is in Canary Wharf, the business district, so that you get the corporate feel. The faculty is one of the best in the world, ranking is good, academically oriented and produces future assets, i.e., the graduates.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Chances are low because of the new and stricter immigration rules. Since the new rules introduced in July 2025 made it more difficult for companies to sponsor visas for jobs, it’s gonna be very hard to secure a permanent role after graduation. But you still have to try.

An adventurous year in London and UCL.
Tips: UCL is a highly competitive university, and one has to work twice as hard to score well in comparison to an Indian university. Also, there are 3 terms in a year - this means that classes will be held in the first 2 terms, and the last term is for exams/final assessment and research essay. UCL is also strict about the usage of AI or ChatGPT for assignments.
Likes (Quality of faculty): UCL is one of the oldest institutions in the UK, so all the professors are highly educated and accomplished in their fields. In the law faculty, I have seen the Law Commission as a professor; the lawyer of the Queen is also a professor. So, you don't have to worry about the quality of education here as it will be world-class, and the employers recognise this institute and give preference to the UCL students.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don't know much about the permanent settlement or immigration information in the UK, as I am a current student at UCL and I don't wish to apply for the same, but I hope that whoever wishes to apply for it does not get disappointed about the same. But the facilities here are easy to use, and people are quite friendly, so you can get more information after reaching London.
