4.1

The campus was culturally diverse. The lecturers were knowledgeable and encouraging.

Tips: Researching the university and its cultural heritage helped me a lot. I also made sure I checked the accreditation and global ranking system to ensure that I can still work elsewhere in the future with this valid degree. Make sure the course aligns with your goals and objectives. Plan your cost and budget: living expenses might be a big factor. Trying to look for scholarships or part-time work might give you some financial ease. Also, be prepared for cultural differences and adjustments, get yourself a health insurance sorted and have a good knowledge of your visa documentation beforehand.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The lecturers were knowledgeable and encouraging. Independent learning and research are encouraged rather than spoon feeding, like the Indian curriculum. It helps you grow and develop many skills, such as critical thinking and self-awareness. I was exposed to various departments and activities, which enriched my academic journey. The campus was culturally diverse, offering a chance to learn from people from different backgrounds and build a global perspective in an inclusive environment.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK has a distinct immigration and settlement system. To obtain a permanent residency, one must live there for an extended period of time with a valid visa to even be considered. While the UK offers excellent education and exposure, it is also expensive and highly competitive. If given an opportunity to settle in the UK, I would likely not choose it, as securing a stable job is very challenging.

Public transportation is highly accessible and affordable. People are very welcoming and friendly.

Tips: When you are moving into your dorm, there are a few things to keep in mind. The first is that, depending on the dorm and the institution, some items might be allowed and others might not. Make sure you know what they are and don't spend money on things that aren't allowed. It's also important to think about how much space you'll need for your stuff. As a freshman, you'll be living with much less space than you're used to. It's a great idea to organize and make a list of all of the items you'll need so you can pack all your belongings in the most effective way possible. The university is great and the professors are highly-educated and are experts in their field. They will assist you with the coursework and will guide you throughout the semester and research work. Besides, public transportation is highly accessible, convenient, and affordable. So try to explore the city and the farms. Overall, I am highly satisfied with my experiences.

BSc (Hons) in International Business Management - Batch of 2025

Offered by Northumbria University

Dull country, good education

Tips: My life has not experienced any huge transition in cultural experience because I tend to stay at home all the time. This might be because I am introverted but whoever goes outside can have the enjoyment whatever. I got a 3000 pound scholarship from my university and it is a general scholarship anyone can get. I am satisfied with the studies they provide but the country seems to be a bit dull.

Likes (Indian Food): I actually prefer cooking myself because I like home food, I tried eating out but they are all bland options. So, I started cooking for myself. As I am living in a flat with other Indians, we share the cooking responsibilities and most of the Indian cooking items are available here.

Dislikes (Part time work): There are not many on-campus part-time jobs available, I tried applying for off-campus as well but no luck. It's been a year since I came here but I still have not secured one. But few of my friends are working and they get paid a minimum of 10.42 if you are more than 21.

The best college I have seen in my life.

Tips: Students should know that you should have some certificates if you are joining through sports. You should have around £20000 in your bank account. They should’ve at least 80% in their 10 and 12 classes examination for admission. They have to speak good English .

Likes (Post study jobs): The student life is good because there is an area for us to chill where we can play games like sneaker, Table tennis, Fusball and eat or watch television. We can hang out with our friends in university. No ragging in university and all the students work together.

Dislikes (Value for money): All the professors are quite good they all help us to do our work. If we are stuck somewhere they help us to do that thing. They give us 1:1 ratio also. They don't yell at the students instead they teach students in good manner and we all understand everything that they teach.

There are many cultural events on-campus. The faculty are highly approachable.

Tips: The university has advanced learning equipment and a world class faculty system, making it the best university for all international students who are coming to study abroad. The university also has top-class infrastructure facilities and a help desk that provides instant solutions to any problems related to studies, etc. I availed the scholarship which was helpful to me for studies. The faculty are really welcoming and they help us out with our assignments. There are on-campus events, activities, seminars, held for the students to socialise among each other. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
