Best in the UK for both best education and that University Life
Tips: I love the multicultural and open-minded thoughts that the whole campus shares regarding everything, and all academics will help you in the best possible ways for your ideas. Very satisfied with the course and university and would recommend this as a path to anyone who wants to experience abroad education.
Likes (Part time work): A lot of opportunities within the university, which are posted on university's website accessible to all students, as well as numerous opportunities in the local market Unless you are interested in regular long-term hardware competitions for which you have to spend countless nights soldering and debugging code. Part-time work is manageable. The avg payout is about £10.50 per hour for both uni and local market jobs.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Not likely in the current political scenario where permanent residency is being lengthened with a 10-year baseline wait. Also, employers here now tend to hire only if you are a citizen or PR holder. Though, if successful in getting a job post-graduation, then PR is obtained in 5 years.

An experience of a lifetime if you're willing to take charge
Tips: If you don't have a scholarship, I would recommend working part-time. It's pretty doable and also a good break from studies. - London is great in terms of public transport. Try to have a basic understanding before going (Oyster card, bus, underground, train, etc.). Otherwise, it may get a bit overwhelming. I would recommend the TFL app.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty gets a high rating because UCL professors are top-tier researchers who are surprisingly accessible during office hours. The level of teaching and depth you get in lectures is incredible. Just keep in mind that UCL relies heavily on self-directed study. Professors expect you to take ownership—they give you the framework and primary literature in class, but going beyond the reading list and digging deeper is entirely up to you.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent immigration gets a low rating because staying in the UK long-term after UCL is a complete minefield. Sure, you get the 2-year Graduate Route visa to work post-graduation, but transitioning from that to a Skilled Worker visa is ridiculously tough. UK salary thresholds keep rising, and a lot of companies flat-out refuse to sponsor international candidates because of the administrative costs. I'd love to settle here if the right sponsored role came along, but as an international student, the immigration policy makes it a constant uphill struggle.

​Navigating Academics, Funding, and Life as an International Student at UCL
Tips: Students should know more about the coursework, as well as the academic hierarchy It's explicitly written on the website; having good knowledge will actually help you in setting faster (with respect to courses and academics). Personally, there was no cultural shock, as London was pretty much different nationalities, including Indians in huge numbers. I got a departmental scholarship, which is academically promising. Other bursaries are more like financially based; your parents' financial status comes into play. I felt this was one of the best choices I have made because of its research quality, multidimensional approach, and quality.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is really good in this university, since I am on the clinical side; we are mostly within the hospital grounds, despite that, student volunteers organize variety of programmes every week, specific meetups and leisure parties A lot of events are organized throughout the academic year; that even includes taking students on field trips, and I am specifically part of the football club, Indian dance society, and reading club.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are quite hard to find, especially given the city situation. As it's London, there's massive crowd pull, and likewise opportunities are very competitive Ideally, part-time jobs are manageable when you have your coursework; once after your thesis it becomes little tricky The average payout here in London is 14 pounds per hour.

LLM (Master of Laws) - Batch of 2026
4.3
A great adventure to explore
Tips: The university and country are good, but they have asked for help because, unlike in India, the help is readily available. People are expected to be more independent. In the university the classes are not spoon-feeding like in India. You have to prepare for the classes in order to understand and participate in the classes.
Likes (Indian Food): I gave the local dining scene top marks because King’s Cross and Bloomsbury are stacked with options. You’re definitely not stuck with basic takeout—just a short walk from UCL, there’s Thai street food, Greek gyros, Lebanese wraps, Turkish kebabs, and proper Indian dishes everywhere. When you need something fast between classes, Canopy Market and King’s Cross station are ideal. Pulling off a filling meal for £10 to £15 in Central London is surprisingly doable. From grab-and-go shawarmas to sit-down treats at Dishoom or a simple biryani, you'll never run out of good spots.
Dislikes (Part time work): Since I was pursuing an LL.M., there were not a lot of part-time work options available for me in the university, nor did I do any part-time jobs. So, I have no information about it. But the internship opportunities at law firms and international firms and organizations were great and always given to us.

Management MSc - Batch of 2026
4.1
Scholarship and career coach connections.
Tips: I am a recipient of the India Excellence Scholarship and I would highly recommend that students apply for scholarships and there are certain trips that they should know before coming here. Connection with the career coaches is very important from the start.
Likes (Indian Food): Back in my home country, I heard that there are very less options for vegetarian or vegan people, but that is not the case, even if each restaurant has just one or two vegetarian options, they are always present plus, it is in very much proximity to the campus, so in brakes, you can go and get yourself a bowl or something to eat.
Dislikes (Value for money): If you can apply for a scholarship, it would be better because even if back in India, you feel it's a small amount that you have received a scholarship, or there are different types of scholarships. Here which you can apply for. For example, the director scholarship which gives you a large amount off.

Friendly people and campus.
Tips: My transition has been similar to almost every other international student here which makes one feel more reassured. My first semester here was quite overwhelming but things fell in place soon after. There is plenty of opportunity if you put yourself out there. Sponsorship has become quite rare now so make sure that you're mentally prepared for all possibilities. I feel the tuition fee for all international students is on the higher end especially when you compare it to local students but the scholarships can make a difference. Also the quality of education has matched up and if you secure a job afterwards, it seems justified.
