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.

The university is very welcoming and full of opportunities.
Tips: The university is very welcoming and full of opportunities. One has to be open to accepting and utilising these opportunities. A cultural shift is a change in how academics are taught. The teaching is very research oriented which is uncommon in the Indian education system. I received a scholarship from the business school and for being a student from India. I am very satisfied with my university and my course.

Student life is fun and vibrant.
Tips: Be social join clubs and societies. Go up to your professors and interact with them. Enjoy the experience of living in a new country. Don't be shy don't miss out on opportunities. Get ready for the weather. The connections you make now will last for a long time. Good experiences so far.
Likes (Indian Food): Amazing variety of Indian food is available in Brighton. I have tried almost every restaurant serving indian food. I would say None of them are bad but you can find a good restaurant that you'd like and is affordable as well if you look for them properly.
Dislikes (Internships): There are opportunities but you have to put a lot of effort by yourself. Present yourself in a nice manner be confident and don't get discouraged by rejections. Just keep applying for more internships and you will find the one that suits you the best.

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.

The city is very expensive and the weather is unpredictable.
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.

Great college not so great placement prospects.
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.

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.

My recommendations for studying at Loughborough University - and having an experience of a lifetime!
Tips: Before you even drop down here, make sure to check out what Loughborough has going on with their facilities, clubs, and random programs. The uni runs a bunch of pre-arrival virtual meetups with the staff and current students, and you should 100% skip the hesitation and jump on those calls to get a feel for the place.
I actually managed to do my master's here through a fully funded Chevening Scholarship. If you’ve already been working in your industry for a few years, you seriously need to check out the criteria for Chevening or any other funding options and just go for it. Getting that financial weight off your shoulders means you can completely throw yourself into the classes and the social life here—which is honestly an unforgettable experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The lecturers here are absolute experts when it comes to sports management, development, and the political side of it all. They make classes super interactive, which actually helps you take in the information without getting overwhelmed since they use a ton of real examples. Plus, a lot of them are actively running massive research projects in their fields. Because of that, everything they teach is backed by actual data and real-world practice, not just boring textbook theories.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The options for Indian food (restaurants and groceries) in the town and on campus are limited. Also, they do serve Indian food in the university cafeteria on certain days of the week. However, Leicester is 20 minutes away, which has plenty of Indian food options.

Tips: Just keep immigration policies and changes to them in mind, as people usually think they can get immediate experience after uni. Unless you are prepared to deal with the struggles, in which case you should be okay. Heavy reliance on coursework: there are only a few exams for master's students, depending on your course, so it's not overly stressful.

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.

Diverse learning environment.
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.

Sporty and modern university with wide campus.
Tips: If you want to get into sports, this is the destination for you. Number one in sports management in the world. Excellent sports facilities, training, testing, and progress monitoring. Amazing and huge campus for a good university vibe. Good range of courses for bachelor's to master's and PhD as well. Faculty are supportive, helpful, and will guide us with internships and assignments. Public transportation is manageable, convenient, and accessible at an affordable price. The people are very friendly and well-behaved. Overall, I am highly satisfied with my experiences.

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.

University is really good in terms of quality of education and faculties.
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.
