An enriching academic experience with supportive faculty and diverse opportunities.

Tips: Be prepared for a rigorous academic environment. Make sure to understand visa requirements, the cost of living, and available support services. Networking and early engagement with career services can help secure opportunities. Transitioning involved adapting to an independent learning style and a multicultural environment. Initially, I felt a bit isolated, but I gradually adjusted to diverse perspectives and social customs, which enriched my experience. I received a partial tuition scholarship ...

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 comme...

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 ...

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...

The university provides strong guidance and resources for applying to and finding internships.

Tips: It was quite hard to adapt to survive here, understanding the dialect, adapting to food that isn't that spicy, etc. I was awarded the India Merit Scholarship, which was awarded to academically highly ranked students. I would firmly say Edinburgh is the best place to live in and explore. There is something here for everyone. It has the countryside charm, a magical place for Potterheads, and buzzing city life too. Overall, I am very much satisfied with the university, the course content, and the ...

The current job market is especially tough to enter as an international student.

Tips: No particular cultural shifts. People are friendly. The India merit scholarship can be availed based on your undergraduate results. The course and university are good; however, the scope of post-study job opportunities may differ based on your degree. The current job market is especially tough to enter as an international student. Depending on your academic and professional interests, it might help to evaluate the amount of support the university provides in terms of securing a job, scholarships...
