There is a brilliant career support and post study job offerings by Imperial College of London.
Tips: Getting into the Imperial College of London is not an easy joke. Nothing guarantees your admission to Imperial College of London. You have to work hard. You have to create SOP's LOR, which makes you stand out from their rest. On top of that, you need brilliant GMAT scores to make it into the Imperial College of London.
Likes (Post study jobs): There is brilliant career support and post study job offerings by Imperial College of London. It is a reputed college ranked second in the world and first in the UK. Its business school is the main highlight quality of teaching. The faculty are extremely talented and beyond ordinary. Imperial graduates of land, the highest packages among all the business school graduates, even before the completion of their programme.
Dislikes (Value for money): The fee for the university for the M.Sc. Management course is very much higher 48,000 per year. The acceptance rate of Imperial College of London for the Business School is very low. Even if you have great qualifications and experience, there is no certainty of a hundred percent acceptance. Considering the job market nowadays, Imperial graduates also find it difficult to find a job. So putting 60 Lacs just in tuition fee is not worth the money, according to me. Do apply for scholarships.

Very hands on practical stuff; academically wasn’t great.
Tips: I honestly would say it was the biggest struggle phase of my life but it was worth it. You have to fight it through to get what you want. I have grown a lot, professionally and personally knowing different perspectives of different people and culture. I received an Imperial Excellence scholarship, which was around 10,000, because of my interview performance and my background with tech and internships I did.
Likes (Public transportation): Connectivity is the best part of London both intercity and Europe. It’s expensive I would say, it costs me about 150 - 200 a month in the tube. So, it is convenient but a bit expensive especially if you stay in Zone 2-3 to reach to zone 1, cause zone 2-3 are cheaper rent wise.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I have rated it 3 because lately everyone’s been against immigration and countries like the UK have changed their law in terms of ILR status from 5 years to 10 years to reduce them, so it’s very uncertain. If it were upto me, I would move here permanently. For me, I still don’t know what are my chances. I do have a skilled worker visa, but with the laws changing daily, it’s become impossible to predict

Great academic experience with strong support.
Tips: Students should know that the college is academically strong and offers great resources, but requires active engagement. Transitioning was smooth, though adapting to a more independent learning style and cultural differences took some adjustment. I did not take any scholarship. Overall, I am very satisfied with my university, course, and life in the UK.
Likes (Value for money): The curriculum, faculty, and resources were top-notch, providing practical skills and industry exposure that directly enhanced my career prospects. Considering the quality of education and long-term benefits, the tuition fee is well justified.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK provides the potential pathways to permanent settlement for graduates who continue working here, but the process can be lengthy and dependent on visa rules, so it is not fully certain. My chances seem pretty good as I am already employed here on a skilled worker visa. With careful planning, I believe I could secure permanent settlement in the UK.

Imperial College - A great college for international students.
Tips: There's a sizable Indian community here, so you will never feel alone, and the cultural shift will be very manageable. Everyone is really friendly and helpful too. I'm not sure how many scholarships there are for international students, apart from ones for exceptional performance in the admissions process. I am very satisfied with my course and university, and the country as a whole.
Likes (Indian Food): There's a shop very close to the South Kensington campus called Chaiwala, where you can find a lot of Indian food. The prices are a little bit high as this is London, but it's quite a nice quality. Most people have student accommodation at a place called North Action, where there are a lot more options for Indian food too.
Dislikes (Part time work): You can find lots of opportunities for part-time work, with the most common job being tutoring. Tutoring is probably the best job due to the flexibility and the pay available, but other jobs like being a waiter/waitress, bartender, or shop assistant are easily found. It is tough to balance work with studies, especially at Imperial, but it is certainly possible with dedication and discipline.

The reality of UK colleges and job market.
Tips: It's not just about my college, Imperial College London, which is no. 1 in the UK, but about joining any tier 1 college, may it be Oxford, Cambridge, LBS, etc. Students should know the following: 1) Your job hunt starts in the month of September for Fall intake students. 2) You would mostly be eligible for graduate jobs meant for MSc students, usually students with less than 4 years of experience. 3) Job hunting predominantly lies in your hands, while college could assist when explicitly asked for, however, you are pretty much on your own. 4) Aim to secure a job within 3 to 4 months of your joining the college. So, if your college starts in September, ideally, you could secure a full-time graduate job by October to November end. 5) Prepare well in advance for assessment tests for graduate jobs, you pretty much cannot avoid that. Maybe 1 in 50 jobs will not have a test, the rest do. Assessment tests could be psychometric, quants, qualitative, deductions, gaming simulation, etc. 
Likes (Public transportation): London is known for its public transportation and it's not just hyped but it is actually well connected whether it's tube, bus, overground, train, tram, etc. The transport is reasonable, smooth and well connected even if you are living away from central London. Student passes also help with the overall transport.
Dislikes (Value for money): Tuition fees are higher for tier 1 colleges as well, and the chances of getting a better job are higher, however, your chances do not increase as much as your fees do. The average salary is 30,000 pounds per annum, which does not change just because your college is better.
