Not at all, the University of Hertfordshire is not ranked anywhere near the University of Manchester

Not only under the Shanghai Rankings, but all the top-ranking bodies of the world rank Manchester University better than Hertfordshire

So, if an Indian applicant has the option to choose from both, they should go for the University of Manchester. 

Due to its prestige, rankings and industry-relevant curriculum. Look at the given table for comparison of ARWU rankings

Indian students do face competition for part-time work in London. However, it is gettable if students start early and use the right platforms. Networking with students on campus and applying heavily is key.

Retail Assistants, Cafe/Baristas staff, Event staff, and Library assistants are popular part-time work roles that Indian students take in London.

While it is important to note that Coventry Uni will not accept active backlogs, the university may accept past backlogs of the studnets. The Universities in UK may accept 2-3 even 10-15 backlogs of a student, but for Coventry, students have to reach out the university. Also, the academic profile of the students must also be strong.
