Wonderful experience here.

Tips: In the UK student has to self-study more than what they will teach on campus or in class. Here, teachers are surely very helpful but they will not spoon-feed. Scholarships are available at this university. To get a job, experience is more important than which university you are in.

Dislikes (Internships): Career guidance is available on campus, however, getting an internship is also quite hard as getting a job. Unpaid internships are available though. The marketing field is quite competitive here. Need certification along with other relevant skills and networks.

The faculty and staff are helpful throughout your journey.

Tips: There is a careers department and an International students department in the university that I find more useful. The staff is quite helpful and welcoming and they do help with documentation. The university has good facilities. There is a library which is good and the campus is also in a beautiful part of the town. International students get a scholarship of 1000 pounds in the first year and I think there is some merit scholarship too based on IELTS band score and academic score. Rest everything is good.

Good college to study in UK!

Tips: As an Indian I had a cultural shift it started directly from comparing the prices of groceries to essential goods. These are not cheap in the UK say a 1.5 liter water bottle which costs around 30 rupees in India would be 100 rupees here in the UK even more than that. Don't always rely on making your ends meet with part-time jobs because not always you get a good one. The university itself is quite good, the lecturers are from different nationalities and we are taught in an industry oriented way. More focus is given to case studies and assignments and assignments carry the grades too so we need to take them seriously. The climate is good, not very hot and Luton Town F. C is in the premier league.

Dislikes (Part time work): As Compared to other cities like London, Birmingham or Wolverhampton where there are many Indian students there is less part-time work available especially for students here in Luton. It's not as easy as it seems. If you plan to come to Luton do consider that.

Great experience, good quality of faculty.

Tips: Definitely there is a big transition after coming here. It's a good experience. Great opportunity to learn about different cultures, people and many more things. They have few scholarships available for everyone. You can avail it while joining as it is the vice chancellor scholarship worth 31000.

Amazing public transport and student facilities.

Tips: The university of Bedfordshire prides itself on its international outlook. With students and faculty from across the planet, there is a great emphasis on sustainability and on research from STEM as well as hands-on learning in most courses including Bio-Tech, sports and psychology.

Likes (Public transportation): There are bus facilities right beside the university with the train station also at walking distance from the university. There is bus connectivity to towns nearby as well, which connect Bedford, Hemel Hempstead, Hatfield to name a few and cities including London and Miton Keynes. There are bike stands available on site and plenty of connectivity with cabs and taxis. The Lutoon Airport is also easily accessible with the help of the train station and the Luton D-ART service.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Most faculty aren't full time which can be a deal breaker as some of them are really good. Substitute faculty can often be hard to understand but overall the courses are covered in a timely manner. The existing full time professors are really knowledgeable and tend to help as much as possible in a constructive manner.
