Welcoming university and friendly people.

Tips: Be prepared for the initial cultural shock; the country and town are very different from India. Living alone in this new place will test you physically, mentally, and emotionally. However, if you stay focused and determined, you'll become a much more confident individual. Plan your finances and schedule your day carefully to complete your degree efficiently. Apply for as many scholarships as possible; they are helpful. I didn't because I lacked knowledge. Overall, I am very satisfied with my university and course. Regarding the country, you must decide if it's for you.

Likes (Safety): I have lived for 2 whole years in Guildford. I lived in a house outside the university, so I had no campus security, but it never ever felt unsafe to be anywhere in Guildford at any time of the day or night. Right from the very first day when I carried my suitcases all by myself from the railway station to my house at 1 AM in the night, to my last day in Guildford before I moved to London, I never felt unsafe anywhere in Guildford. I always found helpful people everywhere. Some even offered me a lift from Tesco to my home in their cars.

Dislikes (Indian Food): The university is located in Guildford, which has limited Indian restaurants. Near the university, you can find only two options. Eat Out Guildford is an affordable choice, offering good portions at a reasonable price. For a more upscale experience, Shah's in Guildford Town Centre is another option. Personally, I prefer cooking at home, as it's more affordable and healthier. Tesco and Lidl, both about a 15-minute walk from the university, are convenient for grocery shopping. I recommend eating out occasionally.

A truly surreal experience that has shaped me for better.

Tips: There will be a lot of culture shock when you come to the UK, but the best thing to do is to embrace the change and keep your mind open to learning about the culture. Overall transition was very smooth for me personally because I was lucky enough to meet amazing people and make friends from around the world. The University made it very easy to engage with other people, especially during the freshers' week. One thing I notice is that it doesn't matter your background or interests, there will always be a place for you here at Surrey, may it be via student societies or social clubs, so don't worry about thinking you won't be able to make friends for any reason. The university does provide scholarships for students coming from India, or at least they did when I joined, so do check. Overall, I was very satisfied with my time at university, and I have utmost faith that anyone who comes here with an open-minded mindset will have a great time here and leave with a lifetime worth of amazing memories.

Likes (Quality of faculty): I had an excellent experience with the professors. They were approachable and knowledgeable, and the teaching faculty was diverse. While some professors were more engaging than others, overall, it was an excellent experience.

Dislikes (Indian Food): There aren't many options for Indian food in Guildford. However, there are still a decent number of restaurants from other cultures, so it's not too bad if you want to order in sometimes. I prefer cooking myself, but I do order Italian food every now and then. There are also a decent number of fast-food restaurants, so you will have options, but not particularly much for late-night cravings.

Great for studies but not the city life that you’d expect.

Tips: Coming to the UK for studies is an excellent option. However, it is highly unlikely that you will land a job right after your studies, and it is very difficult to secure a visa-sponsored job. Therefore, it is essential to start networking and developing your LinkedIn profile from the moment you arrive. The faculty are very intelligent and will help you throughout your studies. The management is also very efficient and will help you sort out all your documents. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience at the University of Surrey.

I feel this is the best University.

Tips: I recommend the students before joining this University to take on-campus student's accommodation early if you are preferring to stay in campus accommodation. Since it is quite difficult to get on-campus accommodation in the University campus. I also recommend to be an early applicant of this university.

Studying at University of Surrey has been a wonderful opportunity.

Tips: Surrey has everything for the students, so students just need to ask for it. Consider it a beautiful opportunity and work hard to achieve your goals. The university will definitely help you in each and every aspect. The university has all the facilities and is well-equipped to nudge you to achieve your goals. I have worked as an international student ambassador at the University of Surrey. The university has lots of different things for students to do. The best part is the experience you get from working at the university. Surrey conducts lots of different fairs and activities for students to participate in.

Dislikes (Indian Food): I'm a vegetarian, and I found it hard to get any Indian food in Guildford, where the University of Surrey is located. There are a few restaurants, but they're expensive. You can get Indian food at the grocery store, but it's a bit of a struggle.
