MSc in BA Student Life at Queen Mary University of London

Tips: A new country definitely calls for a lot of transition. There is a cultural shift in the way you interact with professors and your fellow students. However, when in doubt, it's easier to clear this out with the professors or any staff that is ready to help through this. On the whole, the course is well designed with a masterclass that runs a project throughout from scratch, and it ends with a partnership capstone project where you can SEE live how to apply what you've learned in a real-world setting. SO I am personally satisfied with the course, and if you prefer a Russell Group university in a not-so-student-code city, it would be QMUL.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty for the School of Business and Management is always ready to solve questions or doubts raised by the students. Be it through office hours or in the class, active discussions are prompted, and they make sure classes are not just for assignments.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK as a country for permanent immigration comes with stricter rules and visa processes that are easier for more experienced professionals than for straight-out-of-university students. For students after university going into post-study work visas, the range of jobs, though available, is significantly lower to get into. For professionals it is suggested to find a job that can sponsor your visa. Given the time spent and the immigration rules changing during the course of your study, you can then think about permanent settlement, as there is no defined path yet.

I attended QMUL and I was able to secure a JOB

Tips: You definitely need to brace yourself for the winters and make sure you sort out a place to stay before you head over. Honestly, your best bet is probably to just book an Airbnb for a month or two, and then you can hunt for a proper long-term place once you're actually on the ground in the UK. Aside from that, my uni experience was actually really good. Securing a job is very difficult in the western world irrespective of what university you get into. I consider myself lucky that I was able to get one. Regarding the uni, professors were quite knowledgeable and approachable, but I believe that the reason I was able to secure a job was because I was passionate about the world of finance and how the world works.

Likes (Public transportation): One of the very few campuses in London with a full-fledged campus, very close to central London with multiple tube stations around. Students have multiple accommodation options within the campus, so most of you would not require traveling by public transportation.

Dislikes (Internships): The university does not provide internships; any university, for that matter, in the UK, does not actively provide internships; it is up to the student to find one and build a strong profile. However, with university being in London and being part of the Russell Group, it does provide an edge.

One of the best law schools

Tips: Settling in London was a massive shock at first honestly. I did not know a single soul here at first so trying to find my feet in the city was honestly just pure stress. But everything got way easier once I actually made a few friends. Looking back I'm just really glad I made the jump—the vibe here is genuinely unmatched. It helps that QMU London is a solid Russell Group uni—their law school is honestly top-tier. Plus, I managed to snag a £2,000 merit scholarship from them just based on my undergrad grades, which definitely helped out with the bills.

Likes (Internships): I've given five stars for the internship opportunities. The university itself provides internship opportunities to its students. There is a dedicated portal for the students who want to apply for jobs and internships where internships and jobs are posted regularly; because of this, I have rated it very high.

Dislikes (Part time work): I gave four stars for part-time opportunities and jobs. When I first got here, I was aggressively applying everywhere, but my friends told me I should just walk into shops physically and ask them face-to-face. Luckily that worked and I snagged a job working 16 hours a week. I was making the minimum wage back then, which was £12.21 an hour, and I'd just schedule my shifts on the days I didn't have any classes.

Look up for scholarships.

Tips: Queen Mary University is one of those universities in London that is known for its excellence in the world. Always look out for scholarships. Queen Mary University is providing targeted scholarships so that it becomes affordable for you. I was awarded a scholarship of 3000 from the university.

Likes (Indian Food): London is filled with Indian food options specially in areas like Wembley South Hall, Hounslow. There are many Indian restaurants that offer multiple Indian cuisines from street Indian food to authentic cuisines. London has it all although I cook at home but on weekends, I usually go out with my friends.

Dislikes (Public transportation): The public transportation in London is very well collected and very well established. It is one of the oldest public transport system that consist of underground trains and overground trains and national railway; buses that run all around London. The only downside that I can say about the public transport here is that it's Harsh on the pockets of the students, though students have the option of getting a travel card on their student Oyster card.

Expensive city with lots of Indian food options.

Tips: Before coming to London, one should know that London is one of the most expensive cities. Living expenses are very high here which include rent, transportation and much more. So, a part-time job becomes very crucial. I received a scholarship of 6000. I'm satisfied with my university.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): The United Kingdom is known for its rich culture. If you keep aside the recession part, this would be the country of my dreams. If given a chance I would definitely settle in here because of the quality of life that one gets here.

Dislikes (Indian Food): There are a lot of Indian food options available here in London. London is one of those cities in the United Kingdom that has a high number of Indian and Pakistani restaurants. Every time an Indian restaurant is available in London whether it's Gujarat, Nepali, or North Indian, I prefer eating at home but occasionally I go out with my friends to eat out as well.
