MSc. in Accounting and Financial Management - Batch of 2024

3.5

Great opportunity for students.

Tips: Better to get accommodation in university so you get a good connection with university students and professors, so easy to communicate and better internships and assignments help. You can apply for hardship funds of 1000 GBP for you to live in the UK.

Master of Business Administration (Essex MBA) - Batch of 2026

Balanced growth, strong support with room to improve.

Tips: Programme structure is rigorous but rewarding; workload can be heavy in core terms. Campus resources are strong like the library, career centre, counselling but some services have long wait times. Housing options vary by department; apply early and check visa/tuition requirements if you're international. Caring into a new city can be overwhelming at first, but peer groups and orientation events helped a lot. Cultural differences mainly involve communication style and time management expectations.

Likes (Safety): The campus feels very secure with a visible security presence well-lit areas and quick response times. Low crime rates in the area and a strong sense of community trust. The campus feels very secure: visible security presence well-lit areas and quick response times. Low crime rates in the area and a strong sense of community trust.

Dislikes (Internships): The internship opportunities were limited in number and geographic availability and several postings required prior experience I didn't have. Some resources exist including a general career portal and a few campus workshops but guidance is fragmented.

The college is great and offers variety of courses and the campus is the best.

Tips: If you want to go to a university with a good campus, then the University of Essex is the place to go. Some of the courses they offer are not as good as others, so choose your course based on the ranking. The university ranks well for students with a math background, but they offer a variety of courses with slightly different modules, so choose the course that is right for you. I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Likes (Safety): I felt safe walking to the university even though it was a bit of a distance from the city. The surroundings were good and secure and I never felt unsafe. It was convenient to travel there but it was still safe to travel.

Dislikes (Value for money): Even after getting the scholarship the quality of education for a particular course was not that good. Some of the professors weren't as good as expected and the college only lasted for 6 months. After that you would have to work on your major project from home.

University of Essex is good. Part-time is less.

Tips: There are no part-time jobs, students are living in London for their part-time job. Students should come here with some prior knowledge. Don't take exams slightly. If you love nature then Essex is the best place to live in. If you really want to study then University of Essex is good, but if you want to do more things along with your studies then go somewhere near London.

Great academic support online and offline.

Tips: Take a Forex card before coming here. It's very helpful. Getting your BRP, a sim card, and a bank account here, should be the first things you do after arriving here. Learn some basic cooking, otherwise you will end up spending a lot more money on food.

Academic rigor and cultural exploration

Tips: Have no preconceived notions about the country and the people. Do not focus on making Indian friends but make friends with people from different countries and be open to enjoying cultural differences. Spend a of time in the library and stay on campus as it opens more avenues for TA opportunities.

Likes (Safety): The law and order maintenance is really great and the people are really friendly and accommodating to international students. The people don't judge and are very friendly. The student council and faculty are really helpful as well. Also, the environment is very refreshing.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Personally as an Indian, it was different for me to get used to many fast food options so would prefer cooking. Niche ingredients are hard to find as well. Buying food can be really expensive. The flavour profile of the fast food was not to my liking.
