Imperial College - A great college for international students.
Tips: There's a sizable Indian community here, so you will never feel alone, and the cultural shift will be very manageable. Everyone is really friendly and helpful too. I'm not sure how many scholarships there are for international students, apart from ones for exceptional performance in the admissions process. I am very satisfied with my course and university, and the country as a whole.
Likes (Indian Food): There's a shop very close to the South Kensington campus called Chaiwala, where you can find a lot of Indian food. The prices are a little bit high as this is London, but it's quite a nice quality. Most people have student accommodation at a place called North Action, where there are a lot more options for Indian food too.
Dislikes (Part time work): You can find lots of opportunities for part-time work, with the most common job being tutoring. Tutoring is probably the best job due to the flexibility and the pay available, but other jobs like being a waiter/waitress, bartender, or shop assistant are easily found. It is tough to balance work with studies, especially at Imperial, but it is certainly possible with dedication and discipline.

The reality of UK colleges and job market.
Tips: It's not just about my college, Imperial College London, which is no. 1 in the UK, but about joining any tier 1 college, may it be Oxford, Cambridge, LBS, etc. Students should know the following:
1) Your job hunt starts in the month of September for Fall intake students.
2) You would mostly be eligible for graduate jobs meant for MSc students, usually students with less than 4 years of experience.
3) Job hunting predominantly lies in your hands, while college could assist when explicitly asked for, however, you are pretty much on your own.
4) Aim to secure a job within 3 to 4 months of your joining the college. So, if your college starts in September, ideally, you could secure a full-time graduate job by October to November end.
5) Prepare well in advance for assessment tests for graduate jobs, you pretty much cannot avoid that. Maybe 1 in 50 jobs will not have a test, the rest do. Assessment tests could be psychometric, quants, qualitative, deductions, gaming simulation, etc.
Likes (Public transportation): London is known for its public transportation and it's not just hyped but it is actually well connected whether it's tube, bus, overground, train, tram, etc. The transport is reasonable, smooth and well connected even if you are living away from central London. Student passes also help with the overall transport.
Dislikes (Value for money): Tuition fees are higher for tier 1 colleges as well, and the chances of getting a better job are higher, however, your chances do not increase as much as your fees do. The average salary is 30,000 pounds per annum, which does not change just because your college is better.

It is important to understand the requirements of your course.
Tips: Make sure to do thorough research on the course you're going for. Sort out your accommodation before getting here. Look out for all the scholarships that are available and you can apply for a scholarship even before getting a letter of acceptance.

A life-changing experience.
Tips: The cultural shift was seamless and scholarships made the financial part manageable. I am thoroughly satisfied with the course learnings and assignments. The central part of London is slightly more expensive than the rest of the UK but the whole experience makes it worth it!

Start your application as early as possible.
Tips: Consider expecting a cultural shift if you're moving abroad. Research course satisfaction, content and reviews beforehand. Expect a rigorous academic environment which expects a lot. Socialise and make as many connections as you can. Start applying for jobs and internships as soon as you get accepted and decide on joining Imperial, the sooner you start the better off you will be.

Life and academics as a masters student at Imperial college London is satisfying.
Tips: The college has a great reputation and alumni network. The course is one of the most popular courses offered by Imperial College. It offers great placement opportunities which drove my attention. Although, as an oversea student, there might be some minor problems with the changed environment. But, the people at the college are quite welcoming.
