Excellent campus life and academics.
Tips: The biggest transition was academic style, which is heavily focused on self-study and critical thinking. Culturally, the shift was smooth, though the weather, ie quite gloomy. I am very satisfied with the quality of education and the exposure I have received. It entirely depends on us and our goals.

The university is well recognized; I had a great experience.
Tips: To be honest, back in India, the method of teaching is really different, and it takes some time to adapt. My university provides various scholarships, from a full scholarship to some percentage of the tuition fees.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I feel really fortunate to have had such a supportive and approachable faculty. They were excellent. The best part was to have mentors who have great connections and work experience across the globe.
Dislikes (Internships): No doubt there is a decent amount of guidance provided, in fact, the university organises various networking events and workshops as well. Yes, there are internships available across the UK. Still, a lot depends upon the job market and the field you are in.

Few administrative issues but a lot of opportunities for students.
Tips: Prepare yourself for the weather. It's very windy and chilly in general, but there are multiple good days, which makes you appreciate the sun. There are lots of cultural differences, and many different cultures, so it's nice to keep an open mind and try to meet new people. You will change in many ways unknowingly, but it will teach you to be more resilient. Also, socialising is tough, but it is literally the most important in the first year. It's nice to have friends who will support you. There are very specific scholarships with relatively small amounts of funding. They are course-specific, but each course has awards based on exceptional performance, which can grant you some allowance. I've been able to challenge myself by trying to learn more. Tutorials are very engaging. The university is quite good, too, however, there's a rift between the student council and administration regarding funding and investment. Scotland is very scenic and safe. It's not too tough to make friends.
Likes (Student Life): Extremely diverse range of societies. We can find something for almost any niche, and can make societies too. The students' union council is extremely supportive and also provides a lot of opportunities for students. Societies and people in them are very engaged and positive. For the academic, there are so many peer support groups, including one-on-one writing sessions, reading groups and of course, the professor's office hours. I feel very supported and included.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK, in general, has been implementing stricter immigration laws, so I'm not sure, maybe the chance of permanent immigration is 60%. I want to travel more before choosing a place to live, but this is a good place to live. Maybe somewhere warmer might suit me more, but there are a lot of opportunities for artists/creatives.

A transitional turn-point of my personality.
Tips: You won't find any transition; just come with an open heart and mind to explore and accept everything. You can make the most of it. There are many scholarships available if you apply on time. I received the Dean's Excellence Award from the University. I received every possible support from the university, from academics to mental well-being. The course is culturally diverse, which gives you an edge to think outside your borders. Scotland is very beautiful, especially Edinburgh. It's a very safe and walkable city, with friendly faces and kindness in people's hearts.
Likes (Indian Food): There's no need to pack your bag with Indian food and spices; there are so many Indian and Asian shops in Edinburgh, and you can find everything here, from mustard oil to cereals! Plus, if you don't feel like cooking, there are also economical eating-out options.
Dislikes (Internships): There is no collaboration between the university and the industry for internships. Students have to find internships on their own, and the job market often prefers undergraduates for summer and winter internships over postgraduates, making it difficult for students to secure them.

Bridging cultures and building future.
Tips: The University of Edinburgh encourages students to think independently and become leaders. Take ownership of your studies and make your own decisions about your learning. I was able to make both cultural and academic improvements, and I’m pleased with my studies here.
Likes (Value for money): The University of Edinburgh gives us good returns like working for 2-3 years with a great pay and going back to your home country. The return on investment is good. The reputation you get after studying from this university is commendable, and everyone knows about the university. It has worldwide reach.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don’t prefer settling here permanently as I think we have abundant facilities back in our home country to grab. And the weather over here in Scotland is not suitable for me. Also, people here are very humble and easy-going, but hometown hits different.

There are lots of Indians, Indian stores and restaurants, so you'll not completely miss home.
Tips: For me, the transition felt very smooth and not difficult at all. If one has previously had to move to a different state for their studies and had to live by themselves in a PG or otherwise, this will feel the same, even though it's to a different country and continent altogether. The cultural shift isn't too extreme either, since it's heavily dependent on the friend group you are with, mostly. There are lots of Indians, Indian stores and restaurants, so you'll not completely miss home. You also get to experience the cultures of all the students from different countries if you befriend them, which is a great learning experience. I'd received the India Merit Scholarship, which is automatically given to eligible students based on their application and undergraduate scores, worth 5000 GBP. This is deducted from the tuition fee and not something that is given to the students directly. I'm honestly very satisfied with the university, course and country. While there are a few gripes that I have with the infrastructure available to the students, this has been a very fun and pleasant experience overall. Scotland and Edinburgh are extremely safe, very walkable, and amazing places to be, and the people are super sweet and friendly.
Likes (Student Life): An average day in college involves 2 to 3 hours of classes, which can be a mix of theory and lab classes. Lab classes are very well arranged in that they help you implement and practically learn what was taught in the theory classes. Depending on which campus the class is on, a decent chunk of time on campus might be spent on travelling between the campuses, though a bus service makes this very easy. In terms of events, there is something or the other happening almost every day and every week, whether it be social events or guest lectures and all sorts. While I don't participate very often, it's very fun when I do. In terms of clubs and societies, there are tons of them ranging from computer Science societies to dance clubs to sports clubs and more. Anything you're interested in, there is probably a club or society for it.
Dislikes (Value for money): I think the tuition fee for the course is significantly higher than the average and compared to other Russel League universities in the UK, and not completely justified. While I agree that the course faculty are amazing and student communities and opportunities are amazing, a lot of the services provided such as the computing infrastructure to the students in the course are not as good as you'd expect for the cost of the course.
