Indian immigrants at UoN- word hard, play hard

Tips: There was definitely a huge culture shock. The UK is a very individualistic society so everyone minds their own business but it's also harder to find people that will help you. Everything is expensive so take all the free stuff from events/fair that you can. Especially stationary. If you're a vegetarian, avoid eating at restaurants because they charge way too much for not-so-great food.

Likes (Student Life): UoN has a wide array of clubs and communities that sometimes offer tasters or free events. There are annual fair that showcase all the various clubs. There's usually a few to join these clubs. The sports clubs are the most expensive. ResX also organizes many fun (and free) activities in student accommodation.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Job roles related to economics, finance and accounting are more likely to be sponsored. For psychology, there are very scarce options. Since sponsorship is required to immigrants, its alot harder to land roles which offer sponsorship. The NHS has the most sought after job opportunities so it's worth a shot.

Cancer Immunology and Biotechnology MSc - Batch of 2025

4.0

This 1 year has shaped me well as a person.

Tips: Honestly, I’m just so happy I managed to wrap up my MSc at such a solid university. The people you meet are actually really outgoing and kind which makes settling in way easier. My favorite part had to be the campus in April—it’s honestly gorgeous when the tulips and cherry blossoms start blooming everywhere. There is so much to see across the UK if you can actually find the time (and get lucky with the weather). If you're into nature, you’ve absolutely got to go for a trek in the Peak District; it's easily one of the highlights of the whole experience.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty for the MSc in Cancer Immunology and Biotechnology is impressive and focused on providing a high-quality learning experience with a student-centric approach. The assessment is majorly focused on exams rather than coursework. The faculty is diverse in terms of nationality and yet very inclusive.

International Commercial Law LLM - Batch of 2025

4.4

A life-changing experience with growth, challenges and great memories.

Tips: Moving to the UK was a massive shock to the system at first—I’m not going to lie, the weather and the food were a total 180 from what I was used to back home. It felt pretty overwhelming in those first few weeks, but looking back, that whole struggle was probably the best part of the trip. It really forced me to grow up and learn how to handle things on my own. I didn't actually go for any scholarships myself, but I know the uni has a bunch of them for international students. You’ve just got to be on top of it and apply early to help with the costs. Academically the course was great. It’s not just memorizing stuff they really push you to think for yourself. Plus the people you meet from all over the place just make the whole experience so much better. I’m honestly so glad I did it—it changed me a lot and I’d give anything to go back and do that whole phase over again.

Likes (Public transportation): I rated public transport as five because of the excellent connectivity, convenience, and reliability. The campus is very well connected to the city through frequent bus services. The university Hopper bus, which is basically free, can be used for traveling in between campus.

Dislikes (Internships): I went with a 3 for internships because, honestly, the options were just spread too thin and the competition was brutal. The uni did have some cool research assistant spots at the different law centers—like commercial and criminal law—which were exactly what I was looking for. I actually applied and made it to the interview stage but it was just so cutthroat. Even though the roles themselves were solid and actually meant something there just weren't enough of them to go around. It would’ve been a way better experience if they had a broader range of placements available.

3.6

Academically focused, with staff support in all areas of your life and no judgment from professors.

Tips: Transition was very different; it's difficult as well. Not only do we deal with academic transition but also cultural transition, a new social circle, and a new lifestyle as well. There are a couple of cultural shifts that I've experienced - the please, thank you etiquette, respecting others' time and boundaries, and friendships in the UK take longer to develop with localities. I'm satisfied with my course; it challenged me academically would appreciate more case studies rather than exams. However, except for the weather its given me opportunities and challenges to grow myself personally and professionally.

Likes (Safety): Since Nottingham is heavily based as a student city, it has a lively and well-connected environment throughout the year. Public transport such as buses and trams is generally considered safe at night as many students travel late after classes, library sessions or social settings.

Msc Work and Organisational Psychology - Batch of 2025

3.3

Growth through discomfort.

Tips: There were good restaurants and cafes available on campus and off campus. Most of them even offered student discounts and were all budget-friendly. However if you're really looking to save money, eating healthy home-cooked meals is the best. Big cultural shift, quieter life, high independence, discussion-led learning. Transition was tough but grounding. I applied for scholarships but didn't receive one. Partially satisfied: strong academics, challenging systems, slow administration.

Dislikes (Internships): Internship options in my field were very limited, and most were not closely aligned. Guidance on finding and applying for the internships was surface level with minimal structured support making the process largely self-driven for international students.
