Student life in Durham university
Tips: The teaching style and curriculum are different from what we see and learn in India, here, professors expect u to read before class. Yes, I got a 10000 pounds scholarship, which one can get through applying during their application. 10/10 satisfied with the university course and country.
Likes (Internships): Because there are soo many oppurtunites and the university is also has a good reputation soo its easy to get and find a good internship. Yes, there are internships available in my field of study and Glasgow and London are easily accessible so it's easy to get one.
Dislikes (Indian Food): In Durham, specifically there are no indian grocery stores and there are indian restaurants but they are equally price soo for that you have to travel to Newcastle, and I prefer getting my own groceries and I cook by myself I like eating clean food like meats, eggs and dairy products.

Durham shaped me what I’m today!
Tips: Just choose your subject carefully! Studying a whole new subject in a year can be very overwhelming! Be prepared for a lot of self-study! Don't miss a single seminar! That's where you will learn things not in the lectures! But that doesn't mean you can miss lectures! Both are interconnected! Spend your time in the library! And remember one thing learning is more self-research-oriented here, which is not familiar to most Indian students!
Likes (Student Life): To imagine what Durham is, you can think of the whole city as the University. Few departments are at riverside few are at Bailey and few are at hill side. And when you're practically living in your University (city), your student life will be great no matter what you do. Even if you just go outside of your building, you will SEE students partying somewhere or a few students just roaming around! There are three libraries, and one of them, namely Palace Green Library, is a heritage site because of its historical value! Imagine spending your day or night in a 1000-year-old library! How would you feel? There were plenty of grounds! As a sportsman by myself, I enjoyed playing there! Durham's cricket academy is one of the country's greatest! Even Ben Stock did his practice there after coming out from injury! So you can imagine what kind of facilities you can get there.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Durham is a small town! It's not a city so ofcourse there is not so many options available! But Newcastle is just 15 minutes away by train! If you can go there you'll find plenty of good Indian restaurants. Most restaurants are British! There are plenty of pubs! My favourite was two one is Kokoro which is a Japanese Restaurant and another is Fat Hippo! You can find several outlets of Fat Hippo in entire UK. Their burger and tots are one of the best. I always prefer to cook myself to save money but I was eating outside as well!

Good for foreign exposure, learnings would still be better in IITs/IIMs, pretty underrated.
Tips: Honestly, if you have the stamina for it, staying in India and grinding for the CAT or JEE to get into an IIM or IIT is usually a much better bet. Unless you're getting into Oxbridge or LSE, the actual return on investment and the immediate job placement rates from top-tier Indian colleges are going to blow most UK universities out of the water. Take a place like Durham University, for example. It’s an incredible, historic institution with a really prestigious collegiate system—sort of like Hogwarts—and it carries massive weight inside the UK. But if your main goal is just to land a high-paying corporate job back home right after graduating, a Durham degree might not get you the same instant leverage as an old-school IIM tag. Going to Durham really only makes sense under two conditions: either you are 100% committed to settling down abroad and navigating the UK visa hustle, or your parents are wealthy enough to fund the massive international fees purely so you can get that unique cultural exposure and global network without worrying about a massive education loan hanging over your head.

You'll Grow exceptionally
Tips: There are no work placements, Durham is very isolated city peaceful and quite. There will be cultural differences like accents, behaviour. A bit hard to find Part-time Jobs. Scholarships depend on Course. Overall, very satisfied with course & Place.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The coursework is very rigorous, faculty approach is very easy with proper appointments. There are practical workshops apart from classroom teaching. The faculty is widely diverse with my professors were from, UK, Greece, China, Slavic for 4 modules.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): From Finance careers, there is alumni networks in almost every Financial services firm. Although the maximum opportunities are for undergrad programs. Investment Banking roles can attract a minimum pay of at least £80K, Mid & Back office £38K-£45K!!!

MBA success story: Career Growth, Scholarship & Global experiences
Tips: Yes, great change after the MBA. Got a better job than pre-MBA. Learnt a lot about the cultural shifts as 26 different nationalities were in my class. Yes, they gave me a 6,000-pound scholarship, as I had good previous experience in Gulf countries and scored a 7.5 on IELTS. They gave the scholarship automatically in fees without me asking for it. I am very satisfied with DUBS, the university, and the country.
Likes (Public transportation): The bus network is good. Transportation was affordable to students. I was staying in a university/college hostel itself, which was very close to the MBA campus. So transportation was required, and food was provided there all 3 times each day (Van Mildert College).
Dislikes (Part time work): On campus was less. Part-time is not allowed there as per the visa criteria. UK student visa conditions applicable to my program did not permit part-time employment. As a result, I was unable to undertake part-time work during my MBA course. Focused entirely on my academics.
