Worth it, but not cost effective.

Tips: There was a cultural shift compared to India for me it was punctuality. I didn't had any scholarship I could apply for university with much less tuition feels and the result would have been much more the same Have plenty of part time jobs but need to connections Life is not easy for initial days thereafter likely easy .

Likes (Public transportation): The campus is in the city centre so you can travel easily to the university. First, comparing the transport fees seems high to India, but you'll get used to it. However the public transport is convenient and affordable. The best way to travel is by railway in Scotland. You can travel anywhere in the UK with Public Transport.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The new immigration law in the UK is not welcoming. Salary threshold has been increased by the government which some companies are bit hesitant to pay. If given a chance a would surely immigrate to the UK for some years and gain experience. I personally would not permanently move to the UK.

The university was fun, easy-going with lots of things to grasp in very short amount of time.

Tips: The university is good and the city is good, and the people are fairly good, so it’s worth it in the end. Do some research, explore the job market, take as much help as you can from the careers department, and know your syllabus. You will also get a lot of freebies and opportunities for scholarships.

Likes (Student Life): Student life is good. You'll have plenty of events to attend. The student lounge and student union are super helpful during studies. Also, you get lots of freebies by attending events. The staff is good. There are lots of presentations involved, but everyone is easy-going and there's not a lot of pressure.

Good university for practical studying.

Tips: There are many resources available, so utilize them. Glasgow is an amazing city, and Scotland is a beautiful country with a lot to explore. There are also quite a few scholarships available, which are displayed in great detail.

Likes (Student Life): It’s a pretty liberal university, and people here are so nice and warm. The faculty members, staff and students are very friendly and accepting. Also, the University of Strathclyde has a very beautiful and wide campu,s and there are many hangout spots and places to study.

Dislikes (Internships): It's quite hard working on internships while being a full-time student, but it's not impossible. Some students have a good balance in managing their studies and internships. It also helps in future job prospects and there are quite a lot options available.

Modern and practical way of learning.

Tips: Glasgow is a very calm and beautiful city and people here are so warm and friendly. At the University of Strathclyde, the way of teaching is a very practical way of learning. There are many modules that help you learn the current trends and job requirements, which help you get ready for the market. Very friendly and liberal University, if you are stuck or lost somewhere, you can just ask somebody here. Everyone is happy to help here.

Likes (Public transportation): Glasgow has amazing public transport. I also like that there is rarely any traffic, even in the very busy city centre. People rarely honk their horns, too, which is nice. I also really like that I can walk anywhere I want to go. The vibe here is very chilled and relaxed.

Dislikes (Part time work): There are jobs available, but it's quite hard to get one, especially if you're studying for your master's degree and have so many assignments. However, it's not impossible. You just have to find the right way to apply for jobs and balance your university work and the job. It's all part of the experience, though.

University of Strathclyde is a friendly university.

Tips: I had a smooth transition to the University of Strathclyde. I became more independent and experienced a cultural shift. To apply for the scholarship, I went to the scholarship site, and after a review by the committee, I was awarded the scholarship of 3000 pounds, which reduced my final tuition fees.

Likes (Indian Food): There are plenty of options in Glasgow for Indian food. Even the locals are fans of Indian food, and many Indian restaurants have opened in recent years as the number of Indian students has increased. I prefer to cook at home, as eating out every day would be very expensive.

Dislikes (Value for money): For the number of offline classes, I don't think the tuition fee is justified and the course runs only for 8 months if you exclude holidays and exam time. I strongly believe a year course for the tuition fees charge is not at all justified. And also the labs and facilities are not up to the mark.
