A Transformative Experience at the University of Bristol, UK

Tips: In addition, it is also suggested that it is extremely important for students to visit the University website, as here you can get all the information related to academics, facilities, opportunities, events, and life in the university. It would also be helpful for you if you directly visit your faculty and resolve all those queries which you might have. They are extremely cooperative. The scholarship that I have received is known as the Think Big Scholarship. With the help of this scholarship, I got assistance for my fee and also got membership in the Think Big Development Program.

Likes (Student Life): Apart from the academic experience I was able to acquire from the University of Bristol, I have other experiences. This is because I would participate in various activities that were organized by the Business School, Bristol SU and other student societies in the university. This enabled me to get acquainted with people from diverse backgrounds.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): But there are some prospects for these graduates, and if there are any prospects of suitable employment in this place, then I will definitely consider the prospect of settling down in this place. However, the procedure of getting settled down permanently takes a long time because of the strict visa process.

Tips to get successful in the UK

Tips: Come for the multi cultural exposure you will get. I would suggest to make good friendships outside your own people otherwise there is no meaning in coming and studying here away from your homeland. Always keep your standard and do not do things which might bring our whole country's name down. If you have no bad intentions, the natives will like you and you will make great connections. Please don't speak loud on phones or play videos while you are in public transports without headphones. Dress neat and well and make sure you wear a good perfume. Be brave to talk to the employers/managers directly for the part time jobs.

Dislikes (Value for money): I don't think its a value for money if you are paying a fortune. I did suggest in the student meeting that we should add practical experience on the course to add a value for the money we spent. it was all theory based which we could have studied online.

My time in Bristol., a happy and a healthy journey

Tips: Culture-wise things can be a bit different; cooking, cleaning, and managing things on your own can be a bit tricky in the beginning, but later everything works out and you get used to it. I didn't avail myself of any scholarship as I was a bit late, but one can easily get it, although I received a found twice from the university, which helped me. I am really satisfied with the way I was taught and how much I grew in every way.

Likes (Safety): Safety-wise, the campus was great, and even the accommodation was very good. Here I can say that the people are very welcoming. Students live in the accommodation, and they are really safe, well-maintained, and taken care of by the authorities, and there are multiple options for a stay. One can do multiple activities.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Because you have to apply for a graduate route visa and not get an option directly. One must secure a job, which, given the UK market, is quite difficult now. I would love a permanent settlement in this country, as the culture is vibrant and people are nice to talk to, and one can adapt really well.

Good quality of education.

Tips: It is a great place to be and does not need to be scared. The education quality is excellent. The cross cultural events are worth attending and the community is great and very supportive. There you will get support in terms of everything whether education or extracurricular. Even sports activities are great to be a part of. Don't miss out on anything. There is a lot you can do.

Good academic environment.

Tips: I have learnt how to step out of my comfort zone and make the most of it. There weren't many cultural shocks other than the cost of some things, which are way more here and are considered essential back home, and the accents can be hard to follow at times. Otherwise, people are friendly and professors are very passionate about their lessons. Group projects are something you'll need to get used to if you're not already. Good environment.
