Nottingham Trent is a great place to study

Tips: Nottingham Trent is a good University to attend. It is also one of the safest cities. People here are very much friendly with international students. There are various events taking place on the campus in which you will get to know and interact with many new people. Moreover, public transport over here is convenient but it is a bit expensive for all those who are daily travelers. Also, I am satisfied with my course as it exposed me to the Technical skills required. Big cultural shift, different food, different climate, different environment. I am very satisfied with the university as it is up to the mark and also with my course.

A journey to successful life.

Tips: You get to learn skills like management, finance, studying all by yourself, work-life balance, making friends, responsible behaviour, leadership skills, and work-related skills. Basically, after coming here you learn to work hard. In short, you learn to be independent through all modes.

Likes (Public transportation): The city has well connected public transport, one of the bus routes directly connects the city from within the campus, and other routes are available just outside the campus, so good transportation. Apart from this, there is a train station nearby which connects the city with the rest of the UK.

Dislikes (Indian Food): The restaurants mainly serve food which is very expensive and also do not have the same Indian spice taste as it is available in India. I prefer cooking by myself. The food available here is good but not as per Indian spice and taste, it's more towards boiled food.

The university is quite good with nice campus and teaching faculty.

Tips: There are drastic cultural differences like transport, food and most importantly the weather. There are quite a few scholarships available for foreign students to get one you have to write one sort of essay which covers all the points like why you chose this particular university and the course and you have to mention where you worked in the past.

Liberal, Student friendly and social.

Tips: It might be a bit overwhelming in the start because of the many changes. You gradually get used to it as you make friends. Big cultural shift, different weather, different food etc. Scholarships are available at NTU, but on a first come first serve basis, so you need to apply for them as soon as possible. Very satisfied with my course and university.

Likes (Indian Food): The restaurants in Nottingham are varied ranging from north and south foods to famous foods from a lot of different cities. Everyone has their own preference, personally prefer cooking at home while also eating out or getting takeaways at least once a week.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty in my department are very accessible and approachable. You can contact them through phone, email or teams. We have a fair amount of practical implementation of every module studied with a report deliverable at the end assessing the understanding of students.

Welcoming and energetic University

Tips: I have witnessed a multi-culture here in Nottingham, which was overwhelming for a bit but there wasn't much change for me as I have resided in multiple nations before. I have received a scholarship and was fortunate enough to gain distinction as well. I am 100% satisfied with what I have gained from my University.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): There are a lot of opportunities in this place, as there are a couple of universities which have the best outcomes for students. So the scope of getting a job and setting is more inclined towards the positive side of it rather than the negative side. And I have secured a job so my experience has been great.

Dislikes (Public transportation): I haven't used public transport much, I rarely used to travel out, so I am not very familiar how the actual frequency of transportation is. However, to the extent I have travelled, it was not bad. And there were buses even late at night and it felt safe to travel.
