A technically strong house university.
Tips: UoS is a vibrant college and academically very focused. They have a good level of resources for students and researchers. The environment is very calm and friendly and you will actually feel like studying in college. The professors come from diverse backgrounds and provide top class knowledge and experience.
Likes (Post study jobs): Most of the graduates end up having a full time job within 6 months of their job search even in a slow job market. If you are young and fresh out of college, UOS is a great choice. It will help nurture and prepare for the UK market and even let you do your own business ahead.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Given the constant change of UK rules, settlement in 2026 is far tougher than in 2020. The real challenge is sponsorship for work after studies which is currently not favoured by the government. Most students opt for a PSW and extends for 2 years but it works if you are young.

Very few opportunities for international students.
Tips: I got merit based scholarship in the first year which deducted 3000 GBP from my tuition fee. I have become more confident for sure. There was an academic shift as here is easier as compared to India. I am quite happy with the university course, maybe not the country as it is quite depressing.
Likes (Public transportation): There is a Unilink bus service which connects all campuses and main parts of the city like the shopping area and Portswood which are the main areas. It comes in every 6-7 minutes. Students living in accommodation, a bus pass is free. There are also student yearly passes, which are quite affordable.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are now 2 out of every 20 companies sponsoring visa with new regulations coming in place. Salary packages for graduate roles usually vary from GBP 25,000 to GBP 35,000. Even companies don't want international students, as they don't want to spend money on sponsorship so it is really hard to secure a job now.

A supportive, diverse and enriching university experience.
Tips: The students should know that the university is very supportive with plenty of resources to help them settled in. Transitioning here was smooth, though I did experience a bit of cultural adjustment, especially adapting to the diverse and independent learning style. I did not avail any scholarships, so I relied on personal funding. Overall, I am very satisfied with the university, the course structure, and the experience of studying and living in the UK.
Likes (Indian Food): The campus is vibrant friendly and full of opportunities to meet people. My days usually involved lectures, project work, spending time with friends and a bit of sports. I enjoyed the strong sense of community the most. The university frequently hosts events like tech talks cultural nights fairs and I used to join them whenever I could. There are also plenty of student clubs from the tech and cultural groups to sports and hobby clubs. It was easy to get involved.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The lecturers are highly knowledgeable passionate about their subjects and bring real industry and research insights into their teaching. They are very accessible and approachable always willing to offer support during office hours.

A wonderful place to grow academically.
Tips: Meet with potential students for that academic year and get together as a group so that they can plan things. Little things like accommodation planning, trip planning and project discussions go a long way as they constantly remind you that you're not alone.

A fun, immersive, and intensive experience.
Tips: There are a lot of scholarship opportunities available for students here. I was lucky enough to receive a full scholarship from the university to study here. It was difficult to adapt to the British culture at first, but over time, with the help of friends and peers, it started feeling like a 2nd home! Overall, I am genuinely glad I took the decision to study abroad in this particular university and country.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is fantastic here. The University puts a lot of effort into making each and every student feel comfortable. It organises numerous events like Colour run, graduation ball, Painting, sports activities, Karaoke Thursdays, pool activities, and so much more. My typical day in college looks like - attending classes, roaming around on campus and participating in fun activities during break, having lunch with my friends, attending more classes, and heading to the library in the evening to prepare for assignments/exams.
Dislikes (Internships): There are various internship opportunities available, but they are mostly for Bachelor's students. Finding one for an M.Sc. student can be time-consuming, but it is possible. Nowadays, it is hard to find a job that provides sponsorship. Luckily, one can still work here after graduation with their Postgraduate Work Visa for two years. That gives one time to decide what exactly to do.
