Master of Business Administration - Batch of 2025

A great place to learn and grow .

Tips: At 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 (Safety): Every place is covered by CCTV 24x7. Easy to access trains and buses at midnight, and they also have CCTV. While traveling on the bus, I lost my bus card once, and I was not able to get on the bus because of that, but the driver was kind, he allowed me to board just by seeing my university card.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Nowadays, as a rule, the situation in the UK is changing. It is difficult to land a job where you can get sponsorship and then settlement. However, if you work hard, you can get the right option. It's difficult but not impossible. So, give it a try. It will be good.

I am satisfied with my experience and enjoyed it a lot.

Tips: University life has a lot of variation and is open to new experiences, as well as cultural differences; but when you get to explore new people and new surroundings, you will find a new you. I did not avail myself of any scholarships. I enjoyed my time with my professors and peers.

MSc Astrophysics with Advanced Research - Batch of 2024

Coming UK was a mistake, instead should have move to European countries

Tips: It was difficult during the first couple of months, as it's hard to get a part-time job. Being an astrophysics student worked in retail, a warehouse, a restaurant, etc. Just earned enough to pay bills as part-time. No scholarship. Not satisfied with the university- when taking admission, they tell big numbers about world-class facilities, lots of jobs, QS ranking, etc. Reality is completely different.

Likes (Value for money): The price of the course is lower for a 2-year degree than at any UK university. UK universities are only good at taking money, but after course completion, getting proper jobs in the field is 2-5%, especially in the STEM field, which is way more difficult. My course fee was 16k u00a3 for 2 years. Technical pay more money at a bigger university; your degree would be worth it, but in the end, you will be competing with people across the globe for a single position, say a PhD.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): There's no job in the UK for international students because sponsorship feels too high, and other legal requirements and the competition are too high unless someone is willing to stay here by illegal means. Most students end up going home. No sponsorship, visa issues, international student trade mark, no jobs, people end up working in restaurants, warehouses, delivery drives, etc.

Opportunity awaits, but your adaptability is key! ?

Tips: 1. There was a cultural shift; one can face problems with accents. You have to be on your toes with adaptability, as this will lead you to break down the doors of opportunity. 2. Yes, I got a 1000 GBP scholarship that will be based on IELTS. 3. 90% satisfied with the university, 90% with the course, and 70% with the country.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Our faculty members are highly supportive and are very much committed to making sure that they provide you with all kinds of support in your professional life. This would include providing you with assistance regarding your employment within our organisation, as well as how you can succeed in interviews.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Companies are not directly giving sponsor visas. It depends on one's skills and experience. There was no on-campus placement. There is an app, Handshake, where you have to find relevant roles; otherwise, recruiters will contact you based on your profile.

Worthy and awesome experience

Tips: The academic and cultural transition at Hertfordshire was surprisingly smooth for me. The main rule to live by is simply maintaining your attendance—UH takes attendance tracking very seriously to comply with UK immigration requirements, so don't skip classes. I paid my deposit early and got the Early Bird fee reduction, which gives a nice small discount on your overall tuition. The degree itself and the teaching quality at Herts have been great. However, living in the UK comes with some mixed feelings—the recent government policy changes regarding graduate routes and work rules have made things pretty tough and stressful for international students looking past graduation.
