UOS: Academic Excellence.
Tips: Just be ready to hit the ground running—the academic pace here is no joke, and you’re pretty much on your own when it comes to figuring out the practical stuff. The whole move went okay, but I’d be lying if I said the culture shift didn't catch me off guard at first. Honestly, getting used to the living standards and even just finding decent food was a bit of a learning curve, but you settle into it eventually.
Likes (Safety): UOS and Guildford overall feels very safe, The campus has 24/7 security and cameras and well lit street inside campus. Access to accommodation is controller, which adds an extra layer of security. The environment is well managed which makes it feel like home.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Limited long term visa sponsorship and uncertain permanent settlement pathways While the UK influenced my rating and there are no placements like India, you have to find everything yourself. While the UK offers strong academic and professional exposure, sponsorship depends on the employers and is uncertain.

The university is very multicultural and multifaceted.
Tips: The university is very multicultural and multifaceted. You will get to experience everything here, ranging from academics to sports to theater. Going outside the comfort zone is key in university. I availed a 5000 scholarship meant for students with a good academic background. I am very satisfied with the university and course. Although it has become tougher to land a job, there is still hope if you work hard.
Likes (Public transportation): It has a bus service which stops at multiple spots on the campus. The university is well connected to the train station and the city center. The most frequent mode of transportation is the bus, followed by the train. There are also e-bikes across the campus.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent settlement depends on the candidates resilience. The university does not guarantee any jobs or visa sponsored jobs. The competition is really high and the candidates must have spectacular technical as well as communication skills.

Suitable only for working professionals.
Tips: There are many scholarships in the UK, so please do contact the agency through which you're applying to guide you for availing the scholarships. All international students would be eligible for a basic scholarship but if your profile is extraordinary, you can also get a good amount as scholarships so please do some research about it.
Dislikes (Safety): Recently in the UK, many Indian students and Indians are getting attacked so I personally feel that the UK is becoming more unsafe for international students. I saw some of my friends getting hit and bullied by white people.

An underrated university just outside London.
Tips: There are different types of scholarships available; one should keep an eye out for them before applying. Transition was always smooth with good kind of people around you. I personally am very satisfied with the course as the subjects taught and the way they were taught also aligned well with what I was expecting.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty members were always available, and they possess a very high depth of knowledge in their domain. The teaching was mainly focused on self learning and you will always have your faculty to help you around. but self learning will always be the key which also helps you be independent.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There are buses that are available from the university campus to town centre at regular intervals. With an 30 mins commute to London by train makes it more connected to other parts of the UK and London. The transport cost is minimal, plus if you wish, almost everything is also in awalking distance which a lot of students opted for to save money.

Strong academics and supportive community.
Tips: Transitioning here was easy. There was a bit of a cultural shift but there are a lot of people from my country of origin that you can converse with, also a lot of people are friendly here so talking with them will be easy and great. I didn't get any scholarships, because international undergraduate students from India can only apply for the International Excellence Award.
