Great Learning Experience at Northumbria University
Tips: Students should know the college offers good academic and career opportunities but requires strong time management and self-discipline. I adjusted well after a brief cultural shift in communication and lifestyle. I'm satisfied with the university, courses, and overall experience.
Likes (Student Life): I gave student life a 5 because campus is honestly always buzzing. Most days, I'm just rushing to classes and then immediately catching up on group projects. If there's time, I'll drop by whatever club events are going on. Honestly, with all the random cultural festivals and networking mixers happening around campus, you don't even have to try hard to get involved. Honestly being around such a diverse crowd has really helped me come out of my shell, make some great friends and just pick up solid experience along the way.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The country definitely has actual routes to staying long-term, but honestly, trying to settle down here is a grind. It’s super competitive, takes forever, and you're completely at the mercy of the job market and whatever visa rules they feel like changing. That said, if you've got the right skills and a degree, the opportunities are absolutely out there.

M.Sc. Business with Business Analytics (with advanced practice in second year) - Batch of 2023
4.2
Challenging yet fulfilling.
Tips: Before joining student should research the academic structure, teaching style and assessment methods. Campus facilities like labs, the library, and student support. Scholarship will be applied during the time of the admission process. Some universities focus on independent learning, class participation and research. I'm satisfied with the experience.

BSc (Hons) in Biomedical Science - Batch of 2018
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 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. 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.

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.

MSc Mathematics - Batch of 2025
5.0
Lively and energetic campus.
Tips: Focus on industry math. Transitioning meant mastering Geordie slang and self-study. I got a 2,500 Global Scholarship via grades. Very satisfied with Northumbria; the course is practical, and the UK’s Newcastle is an affordable, vibrant student hub.
Likes (Indian Food): 5/5 for life in the city. Days blend 24/7 library study with city fun. I love the "Toon" energy most. The SU hosts weekly gigs and cultural fairs. With 100+ clubs, from Math to Surf, there is always a community to join. It’s the ultimate student experience.
Dislikes (Internships): Faculty are 5/5; they are approachable mentors with open-door policies. I love the unique focus on computational modelling using MATLAB. The staff is truly global, hailing from Europe to Asia, ensuring a diverse and world - class learning experience.
