A great experience for learning and personal growth
Tips: Loughborough University offers a supportive learning environment and a great student experience. Moving to the UK helped me become more independent, adapt to a new culture, and develop both personally and academically. I would recommend researching the cost of living and accommodation before arriving.

Lboro: Worth it if you're prepared
Tips: Lboro has a strong campus culture—sports, societies, and networking are central. The cultural shift is real but manageable; British social norms take time to read. I had an excellence scholarship from the university of 20%, and that was taken off the fee. Overall an excellent experience with the university and the course, though the job market post-study is harder than expected.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Look, the job market right now is brutal, and relying just on your piece of paper isn't going to get you anywhere. Unless you're actively hustling, meeting people in the industry, and building actual practical skills on the side, you might struggle to see a real payoff. If you can handle the financial stress and actually put in the work to stand out, there are definitely jobs out there. Just go into this with your eyes open.

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.

A place where different cultures feel one with endless opportunities if you have a defined path.
Tips: It was totally a different experience. Since I came on the September intake, everything started with reduced daylight and could weather, which we were never used to before. Second, the food, which you have to cook on your own to taste all your home country's styles. Third, you will have classes only 3 to 4 days a week and only 2 to 4 hours a day which means you have to study more on your own. Regarding scholarship, I got 20% education on total fees, and it is applicable to everyone who is applying to my university, with the condition that you do not have any other scholarship in place. I am very much satisfied with my university, as it gave me a whole new exposure to the cultural richness, friendly staff and environment, and the importance they give to sports. The modules that I had in my course are finely crafted to current market trends, and the exposure to MIRA was one of the biggest highlights.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I rated Indian food low mostly because the price of eating out in restaurants around Loughborough is just way too high for a student budget, so I ended up cooking almost all my meals myself. When you actually break down the costs, eating out makes zero financial sense. Like, you can literally go to the local shops, buy a tub of Dosa batter for maybe £2.50, and easily make 10 to 12 dosas right in your student accommodation. Meanwhile, if you go to an actual Indian restaurant here, you're paying a minimum of £4.50—if not way more—for just a single Dosa. Honestly, the food outside is decent, but it's an occasional luxury rather than an everyday thing because those prices will absolutely drain your bank account if you aren't careful.

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.

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.
