MBA Master of Business Administration with Placement Year - Batch of 2024

4.4

In short, it is very international student friendly university.

Tips: In India we used to have exams; here we need to submit a lot of assignments. I would suggest not making assignments from outside since you can get caught and the tutor can fail you. It's better to make the assignment by yourself. I took a scholarship; I got it through my academic excellence. I applied through the university's official website and contacted the team. I am very much satisfied they are very helpful towards international students.

Likes (Public transportation): From university to home, the public transport is very convenient. Even the university provides free shuttle bus services to travel from one campus to another. The TFL is very good and very convenient. It is a little expensive but very convenient. There are buses and tubes.

Dislikes (Internships): The university has a separate team helping the students in getting internships, but I feel the team isn’t that reliable. The student has to help themselves to get the internship since they have a bunch of students who don't even get the part-time job.

Be prepared before you come to the UK.

Tips: If you are coming to UEL for any of the MBA or Cyber courses, please expect most of the students to look and talk like you. Indian students are going to make up 80-90% of the class attendance, so culturally, there wasn’t much of a difference, really. Sort out your accommodation beforehand and make sure you keep everything in writing. House scams are way too common; try to make your payments through credit cards. It’s easier to get refunds on them if you ever get scammed. I was a Football and cricket national-level player, so I did get 30% scholarship on my fees. Overall, I was a little disappointed by my course. The faculty was good, but not permanent, so we didn’t always know who was going to teach us. I’d have also liked some more classes and group activities.

Likes (Public transportation): London has one of the best transportation systems in the world. Not just the tubes, but the buses are a big part of your daily life. It’s best if you can come prepared about the different types of tube lines there are, but even if you study for the tubes and buses around the area you’re going to be living, it will do the job.

Dislikes (Part time work): Since the limit for students is only 20hr/week, it was quite manageable for me given I had classes only on the weekends. On campus jobs are tough to find, so unless you have a reference, my advice would be to find a job off campus. Most jobs pay minimum wage; if someone offers less than that, please don’t work for them. You can find yourself in trouble.

Resourceful and industry-oriented university.

Tips: UEL is a very conducive and career-oriented university. Multiple avenues are available for a variety of support, including mental health, financial help, and career advice. Although I did not avail any resources, I can attest that professors are very helpful and amiable. I would recommend doing in-depth research about career options and the job market after the course you are interested in, so you are not struggling to find employment post completion of studies.

Likes (Indian Food): London is one of the world's most multicultural cities, and authentic food from almost every country and culture can be found in the right areas. Eating out regularly can become expensive, especially for students, budget options and deals are always available.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Completing an eligible course gives you the option to apply for the Graduate Route visa being changed to 18 months from 24 months, which allows you to work full-time in any job. However, the Graduate Route visa cannot be extended, and if one wants to remain in the UK, eligibility must be assessed for other visas, such as Global Talent or Skilled Worker.

Challenging but a rewarding journey.

Tips: Be prepared. Life abroad looks amazing on reels but in reality it's very different. You'll feel lonely, sometimes you will feel like it's a wrong decision when you struggle to find part time, complete assignments but trust me, it is going to be worth it at last. It will not go how you planned but everything will be so amazing. The university offers a great number of cultural programs, a friendly atmosphere and everything is good.

The climate is so wonderful here.

Tips: I haven't experienced much cultural shift because of my university. Most of the students are from India, I just found new cultural things which mainly get celebrated here in London such as Easter, Halloween and Christmas. I get scholarship on the basis of my marks in my Bachelors and 12th class, because in my 12th class I scored more than 80 marks out of 100 and my board was CBSE. The allowance was in full concession. I'm completely satisfied with it.

Likes (Safety): Every place is captured with CCTV 24x7. Easy to access train and bus at midnight, which also have cctv. While travelling on the bus, I lost my bus card. I was not able to get on the bus because of that but the driver was kind, he allowed me to just by seeing my university card.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Rules get changed if you want to get a permanent settlement in the country. You have to live in the country for at least 10 years. And getting a sponsorship job its all bit difficult. But if you get the job and it also sponsors you, then it's best to survive in the country as you have to prove your value to the company. I would like to permanently immigrate to this country.

A great place to learn and grow.

Tips: Students should know that the college offers a supportive learning environment an active student life and good faculty members but it also expects you to be disciplined and manage your time well. Getting involved in clubs and activities really help you to grow.

Dislikes (Public transportation): The professors are genuinely knowledgeable and truly care students learning. They are very approachable we can talk to them after class or reach out anytime for doubts and guidance. Their teaching style is also unique they mix theory with real examples.
