Look out for scholarships.

Tips: A very inclusive university and very inclusive students made my transition very easy after coming here. I met the students at the university with whom I made friends. They were very exclusive and I got to know about the university and London during my initial days. I availed a scholarship of 6000, which was very crucial in deciding my college.

Likes (Student Life): The university has more than 50 clubs which makes it student friendly and lively university. These clubs are very inclusive and host events every week for their members. There is an Indian society as well for the Indian students. All the Indian festivals are also celebrated inside the campus, whether it's Holi, Eid, Diwali, or Lohri.

Dislikes (Part time work): Getting part-time jobs is not easy, as it sounds, there is a lot of competition for part-time jobs. London has the most number of opportunities when it comes to part-time jobs compared to other cities in the United Kingdom. If you are resilient and regular in applying for jobs online and visiting the stores in person as well, then you should get the part-time job minimum for 12.21 per hour and a student can work only 20 hours per week.

Unpredictable weather, but excellent and predictable degree outcome.

Tips: Transition to London was challenging during the initial days. I had to adapt to the weather. The weather here is unpredictable. It's raining and it's sunny the next moment, so you have to be prepared for every type of weather in London, whether you prefer shoes and jackets. I have received a scholarship of 4000. I am satisfied with my country and course.

Likes (Indian Food): Special Indian food availability in London is awesome. There is every food option that is available here whether it's North Indian, South Indian or West Indian. Every food option is available here, especially in areas like South Hall, Hounslow and Wembley. I cook myself but on the weekends, I go out with my friends and have lunch or dinner with them.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Because of the current situation and the recession period that the UK is going through, the UK government has introduce few laws that have restricted immigrants from settling here. They have reduced the PSW tenure from 24 months to 18 months, they have increased the permanent settlement through the ILR route by 10 years, which was earlier five years. If given a chance, I would definitely settle in this country.

Great country and one of the best universities.

Tips: Brunel University is a hub of sports and athletic centres. It is one of the best universities to Offer high class athletic Centres. When I first came here, I was awestruck by seeing the lively campus of the university. Transition was quite smooth. I did avail a scholarship of 6000. I am satisfied with my university.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent immigration settlement options here in London, although they have worsened according to a few but compared to India, it is easy to get a job here. If you try and do not care about the failure. If you keep on trying and keep on applying without considering how much rejection you have got, one day get a job. If given a chance, I would definitely settle in this country.

Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transportation in London is well connected and well established offering trains, underground, overground, and National Railways, buses and ramps. Students can get a weekly or monthly travel pass, which makes the expensive London public transportation affordable to students. Students can avail it by buying a student Oyster card otherwise, London transport is very expensive.

Be mentally prepared and open to challenges.

Tips: Students should know that it is going to be a little difficult in here because you have to go through a lot of immigration changes and lifestyle changes and a major cultural shift and you cannot expect anything from anyone. You have to take care of yourself, even if you are not in good health, so mental preparation is the biggest thing that a student should have before coming to the country. Every day immigration rules are changed by the UK government. This makes our future in the country very unpredictable and also not trustworthy. Even if we get sponsored, it is not certain that we will be able to stay here forever during the changing rules. I would be happy to permanently immigrate to this country but considering the changing rules, I would rather go to a country where the immigration laws are less strict.

Likes (Student Life): The student life is very good. I spend my day studying doing certain activities going to the gym and sometimes managing the day with my part-time job, so I have joined certain clubs in my university. I have joined the Banking club, the tennis club and the football club as well. And they have almost 10 to 20 events every month.

Good Indian food and friendly community.

Tips: The transition was a major one. I started to cook by myself. I started to do the dishes for myself. I started to wash my own clothes. It was a major life changing experience that taught me a lot of things. I met every kind of person in a year, which itself also taught me a lot of new things. Talking with people of different cultures, knowing about their country is knowing about the practices they follow is quite interesting. I got a scholarship of 5000 on a merit basis as I scored the minimum criteria which is required for this scholarship. I am very much satisfied with the university and the course that I am doing but the country that I expected the UK to be is not the same anymore.

Dislikes (Safety): I came across many cases near my area of crime, stabbing, mugging and snatching phones, so I really feel scared of going out at night from my house. Other than that we are just depending on the police for safety. Apart from calling the police we don't have any other facility as a student.
