The university is great. Teachers are good. Atmosphere is lovely. Definitely recommend it.
Tips: There was a cultural shift. I took me 2-3 months to get adjusted here. I have got a scholarship of 4000 and got a 1000 discount for early bird payment. I feel it was a good decision of moving on here, the country is nice as well.
Likes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking myself but there are many restaurants including Indian, the cost is around 10 per person. Ordering food online is quite costly. Groceries are not that costly if you know how to cook, then food is not expensive here. I live in London, one can experience food from all the world here.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I would definitely love to permanent live in the UK. It has vibrant vibes, work life balance is good. People are good, salaries are good. Getting a sponsorship job is a bit difficult, but with consistent effort it's not that hard to crack. One should be mentally ready for the challenges.

Very good university with really brilliant faculty.
Tips: Should know more about the university and what course they are gonna study, and if they're going for a Masters, well and good, they need to know more about the library section. I had a chance to get my scholarship, also I am purely satisfied with my faculty and my university.

A student friendly university in a student friendly city.
Tips: The city is beautiful and student-friendly, and there are lots of things for international students to do. It usually takes a bit of time to get into the culture of the city and everyone has been very friendly on campus. I also got an international scholarship of 4000 pounds waived off of my tuition fee. The only downside is that living expenses are very high, comparable to London. But the city has a lot to offer, and I would definitely recommend Anglia Ruskin University to other students. I'm completely satisfied with Anglia Ruskin University and my course.
Likes (Student Life): There are many clubs and communities that are organised on the campus based on the country and interests like movies and sports. There will be only 2 to 3 hours of classes each day and the remaining we can spend with our friends on campus and develop our social skills. The faculty in the university is pretty decent, but there are a few members who are not teaching at the highest level. The staff is very helpful during assignments, but the lab staff is not as helpful when it comes to answering our questions.

My university was nice and has lot of facilities for international students. Great global exposure.
Tips: Anglia Ruskin University is a good choice for a university that provides great global exposure and great value for education. The course fees are relatively low compared to other universities and student life is nice. The university is located in Cambridge which is a safe and easy place to get around. The student union is there to help you and it will be a completely different experience once you move abroad. It will be really good for your future if you are looking for some international exposure and want to learn about other cultures and other countries. I would say the UK is the best place to start.

Great faculty but very less internship opportunity.
Tips: I'm finding it pretty easy to settle in at this university. There aren't a lot of scholarships available, but in the first year, you have a couple of options. My course of study is pretty good compared to basic courses like MBA and BACS. There are a lot of Indian options everywhere and the food is pretty good. You can find a lot of Indian stores nearby if you need any groceries, and basic supplies are everywhere in convenience stores like Tesco, Sainsbury's, Co-op, and Waitrose. If you are used to cooking, your experience won't be hampered in terms of food. Overall, the experience is quite good.
Dislikes (Internships): The internships are not provided to you, but you can find them yourself with help from the university. The courses are based on the principle that you get what you put into them. Your major focus should be on networking and meeting new people to get new opportunities.

Best for business related courses.
Tips: Dedicated support for all international students. We have friendly staff and they help us in opening the bank account and they provide different options to work while studying. The campus is located in a walkable location from the city centre where various food courts and a good sports bar are available for students to relax in their free time.
Dislikes (Student Life): In the beginning, you're still largely connected to a group of friends but as you proceed you need to focus more on classes. This will improve your understanding of the course and requirements. All cultural activities are organized and students from different nations will be happy to show their presence it will be 2-3 days of an event and everyone is so excited to be a part of the programme.
