A rewarding academic journey with real life skills.
Tips: I just grew into myself. I learned life skills like cooking, laundry and learned to handle my expenses better. I didn't avail any scholarships. Very satisfied, good course, learned 2-3 new modules which are actually good for practical uses in my business. The country is very amazing, be it culture, people are very hospitable, peaceful and beautiful. Durham, especially, I found to be one of the safest cities in the UK.
Likes (Value for money): We had top tier faculty and a wide range of facilities at the business school. Business school itself was a state of the art facility where we had meeting rooms, presentation rooms, faculty meetings, bloomberg terminals and lecture halls. Communication with the university and faculty was really feasible and they helped with the queries with best of their ability.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I didn't apply for the job so I am unaware of the post study sponsored jobs. But from what I have heard from my fellow mates, the UK's job market is very bad at the moment so even getting a job is difficult and sponsored is difficult.

This University is a good choice.
Tips: The university is well recognised amongst the recruiters in the UK. The programs are very well structured and the professors are very helpful. However, the Durham as a city is very dull. There is not much to do around. There are very less opportunities for part-time jobs because the city is so small. The 1st month in Durham is very difficult as the city is very cold, windy and hilly. You will have to walk a lot on inclined paths. So it is better to be mentally and physically prepared for that.
Likes (Safety): People around the city are very helpful. There are porters in every college to help students whenever needed. I have hardly faced any kind of racism from the people around me. The university has a night line for the female students to drop them to their destination late at night at a very low price of 2 pounds.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are hardly 2-3 Indian restaurants in Durham and the food is not that great. The taste doesn’t justify the high prices. Cooking on my own is so much more affordable and satisfying. The ingredients are easily available around the city. There is only one Indian grocery store though.

Overwhelming, challenging and beautiful
Tips: Students should know the essence of Durham is concerned with staying in college accommodation which offers a sense of community and belonging. Secondly, Durham is a very close-knit and quiet city and the weather is mostly rainy and cold. Thirdly, the course a student selects will get challenging eventually.

It is really difficult to obtain permanent residency.
Tips: A lot of things changed. I got to know different cultures and accents, which were quite difficult to understand at the start. Upon that you might face discrimination at work place as they be bias towards their own people, even if they are wrong, telling out of their own experience. I got 7500 scholarships from the university; it totally depends on how early you apply and get selected, as there are very limited numbers. The university was really good and the course was ranked 30th in the world. Overall, it was a really good experience, learned a lot of things, and no regrets.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It’s really difficult to obtain permanent residency as the ILR rule has changed and there’s no certainty that even after spending 5 years, you will get ILR. If I’ve to talk about myself I won’t get settled over here won’t mind to spend few years but not permanently as for me the place was a bit depressing as the whole Durham place is only surviving due to university if the term break starts we hardly get to see people as the students go back to their countries and it feels like you are living somewhere out of the world.

A lifetime of welcoming experiences.
Tips: Durham University is one of the leading universities in the world, the transition from India to UK study was pretty common and expected, the focus relies in the UK mostly of self study, independent research and less on exams, infact for my course we only had to submit research papers no exams, the marking is however quite tough and it was interesting to adapt to 60+ being considered a good score and 75 being the highest. Almost all international students got a scholarship of 5000 pounds or more, depending on the course, and there are a variety of other scholarships and bursaries available at the university as well as at the collegiate level. I was adequately satisfied with my university. After the completion of the degree, I have nothing but fond memories and invaluable academic and extracurricular knowledge.
Likes (Student Life): Durham being a student town, most of the demographic is young students, the businesses target students as well, so we have multiple events going on not just on the campus and in the colleges but all around the city. The entire city is our campus, the river is where the rowing team rows, and the restaurants and clubs all have student discounts. Being a collegiate system, all colleges have weekly dinners, daily events, annual days, balls, freshers week, refreshers week, mid sem balls and events, quiz nights in college bars and even the departments and individual societies have events day to day. This means that almost every day, there are some of the other events happening both free and paid that can range from stargazing to sports, and all students have something to do.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Durham is a small town in northern England, though there are some Indian restaurents, they are not as authentic. However, you do get almost all the ingredients you may need to cook Indian food yourself. There are 5-6 desi restaurants which can pass when you really don't want to cook and are okay with some mid-level indian adjacent food. Urban Chai is the only good one.
