A Decent University Experience with Realistic Expectations

Tips: It is good for the students to note that despite the fact that the university could be considered cheap compared to other universities in London, living costs would be high. Adjusting to a new country entails culture shock, change in lifestyle, and learning how to handle finances independently. Students need to learn how to budget and look for possible part-time jobs since a side hustle might be required in order to cope with day-to-day living in London. University life might not fully match all the expectations, thus, realistic goals and academic work need to be prioritized.

Likes (Public transportation): I have marked 5 for Public Transportation since the university has an excellent connection with the rest of London. There is a DLR station and a bus stop situated right outside the university, which makes it very convenient to go to various places of the city through public transport. Through public transport, one can easily reach the neighboring areas as well as other important locations. Generally speaking, the transport system is quite accessible and reasonably priced as well.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Rating of 1 was given to me for Permanent Immigration/Settlement Options as I do not have much knowledge about these options. I am not aware of the criteria, the application process, and what options exist for permanent settlement. It is necessary for me to get detailed information regarding this so that I can understand the process of immigration and settlement in the future.

MSc Psychology - Batch of 2024

3.4

The University is excellent and beautiful.

Tips: The University of East London is very diverse, and you all will meet students from all over the world. The transition was smooth overall; at first I had to adjust to the teaching style, but since London is very multicultural, I felt welcome and adapted quickly. I did receive a scholarship of 3000 pounds, and I am very satisfied with my experience. Living in the UK, especially in London, gave me international exposure, helped me grow personally and professionally, and allowed me to meet people from different cultures.

Likes (Student Life): I used to spend time attending lectures, seminars, and workshops in my college days. What I liked most was following my hobby alongside this. A lot of events are organised throughout the academic year, such as cultural festivals, parties, meetups, and more. Mainly, I used to indulge in sports activities, such as football.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): As everyone wants to do a full-time job here, it is not as easy as it seems. Nowadays, it is quite a difficult task to establish yourself here. Think twice before coming here, do not take things casually, stay updated all the time. Do not think of living a lavish life here because you need to work hard to find a job here.

4.5

A Good International Study Experience

Tips: Students will have to adjust to the change in academic settings and to a new way of life in a different culture. The change was not difficult for most, except there were few changes in culture and academics to get used to. In addition, students need to budget well and find accommodation and off-campus jobs.

Likes (Value for money): Part-time opportunities are quite good, especially in retail supermarkets, where I actually worked at Sainsbury's, and in warehouse, customer service, and delivery-related roles. There are both on-campus and off-campus opportunities, and they pay on time and depends on the role and working hours.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Post-study job opportunities are available, but finding a company to sponsor a work visa can be challenging, especially for fresh graduates and international students. There are opportunities in IT, finance, healthcare, engineering, business, and other sectors, but sponsorship depends on the employer and role.

The university where there is a mixture of multiple cultures.

Tips: Before joining college, students have to make up their minds, the UK is not the same as India. There is a lot of change in culture. But the culture in the UK is very good. Yes, I got 2000u00a3 of scholarships, and my education counsellor helped me with that. I was very happy with the university, course and the culture over there.

Likes (Part time work): There are many opportunities for part-time work in the UK. But initially, a few struggle a bit to find a job, and a few get it immediately. And most of the part-time opportunities rely on referrals. The average payout for part-time work is 12.5u00a3 per hour.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Many companies can offer sponsor visas for work. But there is no good guidance on which companies provide such services. And I am not sure about the packages. Maybe it should start at around starting from 45000u00a3 per annum.

Amazing university experience with a good work-life balance.

Tips: In this university, if you pay full tuition in one go, you get a discount. I'm really satisfied with the services during my academic journey. They're very supportive in terms of education and everything for international students. They're guiding us throughout the journey and for our future as well.

Likes (Indian Food): London has many options for Indian food. You will find an indian restaurant every one kilometre away and it is loaded with good food which won't make one feel homesick. Do not forget to show your id card since student discounts are almost offered everywhere. I prefer cooking by myself since it's cheaper compared to eating outside food, and it's a healthier option.

Dislikes (Part time work): It is difficult to find part time job this year related to your field of study. It is a bit difficult to manage your part-time and classes in the beginning. The payout is raised from this year and is good. It completely depends on the student to manage expenses.

MSc Public Health - Batch of 2022

3.6

A great choice for academic excellence

Tips: Transitioning after coming back to India was not that tough because there was no cultural shift I experienced compared to living and studying in London. I received a scholarship awarded by my school for my master's, where I completed my 12th standard. I'm very satisfied with my University because of the quality of studies and extracurricular activities, which provided me with overall growth and development.

Likes (Value for money): The course quality and learning experience justified the investment. The exposure, career focused curriculum provided a strong value for the tuition fee. The teachers are really open to listening and solving your problems, and if you have any doubts, you can email them. Also, the Campus is very good and aesthetic.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): University of East London is a good university but I wouldn't say that it is exactly supportive when it comes to the staff. The course is very helpful for your career in any of the field. Due to the staff not being so supportive, there isn't much assistance when it comes to post study jobs.
