The university is good and there are lots of on-campus events happening simultaneously.
Tips: Before joining the University of Birmingham, it is essential to manage their time well, especially with dividing the academic workload, networking with professors and peers, and getting involved in campus activities. Also, be prepared for a different teaching style and expectations compared to home. The city is generally safe and the campus facilities are good. There are occasional cons in certain parts of the city particularly at night. The overall crime rate is low, but it's always important to stay alert and follow safety tips. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Indian Food): While it is sometimes difficult to find authentic dishes from my country, I have been able to find local stores that serve familiar flavours. The availability of ingredients in international stores or markets also helps, but certain spices or delicacies are often harder to find.

On-campus part-time jobs are mostly taken by the locals. They don't prefer international students.
Tips: I did transition after coming here. There was a huge cultural shift I faced during the first month, but I eventually got used to it. I did avail a scholarship. It was granted by my university for International students and was worth 3000. On-campus part-time jobs are mostly taken by the locals. They don't prefer international students. They have set so high standards for even part-time jobs on campus. Managing academics and part-time at the same time is a bit hectic. The minimum payout is 10.42 for those who are above the age of 21. Overall, I'm satisfied with my university in every aspect.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Well-experienced faculty members from all over the world. They were easily accessible and ready to help at any time. Classes were conducted in seminar halls with a video recording option, so we can access them at any time after that throughout our lifetime.

Enriching academic journey with cultural growth.
Tips: Students should know that they have excellent academic programs and a good community. Also, they should come prepared to deal with the weather and the cost of living. I had to transition to a new culture, new classes, and new living in this city. But overall, I'm very happy with my city and my course here in the UK. They’ve provided invaluable learning opportunities and personal growth.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is well connected at reliable and convenient. The campus is easily accessible through buses trains and Metro making computing within the city seamless. Public transport is affordable with student discount discounts and frequent services ensuring smooth travel for students and residents alike.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The process can be lengthy and requires meeting strict criteria like continuous employment and Visa eligibility. If given a chance I would consider permanent settlement due to the country's thriving cyber security industry and cultural diversity which alliance well with my professional and personal interests. However, visa policies and job market competition remain key factors to evaluate.

University of Birmingham has the best faculty. They are knowledgeable and expert in their field.
Tips: The faculty is the major highlight of the university. Everyone was an expert in their own fields. Their ability to blend theoretical concepts with practical applications made learning engaging. The program offered numerous hands-on projects that allowed us to apply what we learned in real-world scenarios. The feature of assigning a personal tutor to every student helped everyone get the academic guidance and support they needed. Besides, there are numerous events, activities and seminars histye by the college for students so do participate in it. Try to connect with the alumni before joining and ask them about the course, classes, internship and college. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Great faculty, diverse and vibrant campus.
Tips: Embrace the expected. You will undoubtedly be surprised at the hidden gems within the people and place at this college. People here are known to be friendly and fun-loving, but they are also open-minded and accepting. Don't be afraid to reach out and make new friends. The expertise of the faculty and the comprehensive support I received from the department played a crucial role in my academic and personal growth. I am grateful for my department's unwavering assistance and I am thankful that I was given invaluable support by the faculty throughout my academic journey. Overall, I am very much satisfied with the course and the university.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job search can be a marathon, not a sprint. It's easy to get discouraged when interviews seem to lead nowhere, but it's crucial to remember that landing a job is not an impossible feat. Hope is a powerful fuel that drives us forward, even when facing setbacks.

The best experience for a student.
Tips: There definitely was a cultural shift for me. But nothing most people can't handle. It took me a while to learn certain things that India didn't teach us. I got a commonwealth scholarship of 2000 pounds. About the university, the infrastructure and technology blew my mind. It is the perfect place to study.
Likes (Safety): Birmingham is a very safe city. Even through the night it is mostly alive. One thing to keep in mind is to avoid the canals. In the year and a half that I lived there, I did not have any bad experience. As long as we don't go out of line, I'd say we will have no trouble.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): They have no placement drives like the ones we have in India. We have to look for jobs ourselves. Given that the UK is in a recession, it is very difficult to find jobs in the country. They prefer hiring a fresher who is from the UK or EU rather than someone for whom they would have to sponsor a visa.

University of Birmingham lets us explore our potential for a life-changing experience.
Tips: There are many cultural shifts once you arrive here in the UK. Coming here is one thing and starting living and sustaining here is another thing, From managing studies, and exam pressure to financial hurdles, and homesickness an individual has their journey uniquely. In the UK, people tend to be more individuals and have fewer family links and social organisations. India's culture is more closer and conservative than Britain's. No, I did not avail of any scholarships, though advised to apply for them as quickly as possible. I am quite satisfied with the university, programme and country. We just need to stay focused and keep working hard until we find some good full-time opportunity.
Likes (Student Life): A typical day starts early in the morning, getting ready for either a lecture to attend or a sports session such as swimming, badminton, basketball, gym or tennis etc. Then after coming back, prepare food for lunch and evening, then study and go to sleep after some fun time with friends. The most enjoyable thing that I used to do in my college life was going to play sports and get myself involved in activities such as fitness and sports. There are diverse events organised by various societies under the Guild of Students, ranging from cultural fests to simple events on going on campus or student accommodation. I used to participate as maximum as possible if I had spare time to socialize and have fun in those events. Student clubs are there for all types of interests, academic programs, backgrounds, nationalities, religious beliefs, etc. Such as business societies, photography, gaming, Hindu, Islamic, and Sikh societies, International Students Club, volunteering and UNICEF communities, dance clubs, etc.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The only opportunities for students available on campus are Career Fair, where recruiters and companies visit campus and interact with the students directly. Very few sponsor visas, for the rest, students have to take up graduate visa route on their own. Most of the roles are for freshers such as graduate scheme roles, graduate management or trainee, financial auditor, etc. The starting average annual salary is 30,000 pounds.

The university has an amazing campus and well-trained faculties.
Tips: When you're looking for scholarships, it's important to look at the job market in the field you're interested in. If you can get a university-sponsored internship, that would be a great opportunity to gain experience and get paid. Birmingham is a city with multiple universities and a big crowd of students, so it can be difficult to find part-time work, on or off campus. However, if you do land a part-time job, the pay is the minimum wage, which is not bad. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences here.

Tips: I have grown as a person, become more independent, and more mature since entering university. There were some cultural shocks and differences, but mostly how kind and accepting most people were. That feels like the norm now. I did not receive any scholarships, but I am very satisfied with my university experience.
Likes (Safety): I have a very active social life at the University of Birmingham. I spend my time studying, attending class, and working out at the gym. If I have any energy left, I like to go out with friends. There are many social events on campus that I can attend. The student body is very diverse, and everyone is kind and accepting of everyone else. The staff is very helpful and always there to support and talk to new students.
Dislikes (Student Life): The staff at the University of Birmingham are very kind and helpful. The university is incredibly inclusive and diverse, and the staff is very attentive to everyone's problems.

University of Birmingham is a great all-rounded university.
Tips: Coming to study at the University of Birmingham is a good place to get accustomed to changes in your lifestyle.

I have not applied for Permanent Settlement in the country, but I would consider staying here if I could. The University makes you aware of many opportunities that could help you transition into settling down here. Overall, I am very satisfied with the University.
Likes (Part time work): The University of Birmingham provides several opportunities for part-time and casual work. You can manage both academics and part-time work, but off-campus opportunities may require more time and effort. You get paid on an hourly basis, at an average rate of 11 per hour.

Thriving at the Univeristy of Birmingham: Independence, diversity, and opportunity.
Tips: As for the University of Birmingham, it is a great university that prepares you well for the world where you are no longer a kid who only has to worry about grades. Coming here has taught me to be independent financially and mentally. The campus is very diverse which lets me immerse in different cultural experiences. The student union is always there to support you from safety to mental well-being. The University also celebrates every cultural festival from Diwali to Ramadan, which never gives you the feeling of a home away from home. I did secure an academic scholarship for my course which is funded by the university themselves. Although the cost of living is quite high at the moment. But other than that, this is an amazing opportunity for me where I get to do a course I love at an exceptional Russel group university at the heart of Birmingham that offers all the support and advice.
Likes (Internships): The University has a huge careers network, with each college having its own. They provide excellent one-to-one advice on getting work experience, internships, volunteering, full-time jobs, etc. They also provide several other services like mock interviews that prepare you for the real challenge in the application process. For students with zero or very limited experience, the University offers a programme called B-Experienced, through which internships provided by companies offer special spots for students from the University of Birmingham. Hence when it comes to work experience and career in general, the University of Birmingham is a great choice.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The current UK government has tightened immigration policies, which might make permanent immigration options a bit harder. Also, if you secure a good job in a company that is ready to sponsor you, then that's great. However, most postgraduate students struggle with this aspect.

University of Birmingham does not provide any internship for international students.
Tips: It is always better to connect with multiple people and faculty members to know what's going on near you and what opportunities exist for the future. I also think joining societies is a great option to keep the stream off while enjoying your university experience. Public transportation in Birmingham is good. It connects the whole city and buses are frequent. However, buses may be delayed due to various reasons, which can be a problem for students commuting to lectures or work during peak hours. I suggest checking the routes and buses beforehand so that you know the average commute time.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I was an international student at the University of Birmingham. I found that there were no jobs at all for international students. I faced extreme competition in finding jobs, and the university didn't provide any guidance or help with these issues. This made the situation worse than it might have been otherwise.

University of Birmingham has a beautiful and huge campus.
Tips: The campus is beautiful and there are a lot of activities to do, so you won't feel bored during your initial couple of weeks. After that you get busy with assignments and academics, so you'll spend most of the time going back and forth from the lectures to your accommodation, and part-time work. Like in India, there's not much pressure on studies, which can either be a good or a bad thing. I'm happy with the fact that the university is well-recognised and gives students career guidance. The current job market is tough in the UK to get a job, so only time will tell whether it's worth it or not.
Likes (Safety): Safety can be a matter of different experiences for different people. I never had safety concerns even when walking down the street late at night. Of course, you need to be a bit cautious of your surroundings. The campus does provide an app, and some safety gadgets during the welcome week, as well as a free bus to Sell Oak to travel when it gets dark during winter.
Dislikes (Public transportation): You can travel by train or bus. Buses are usually more connected than trains but are generally late, and it doesn't matter if you check the scheduled time on Google Maps or bus stop, they will make you wait for 15-20 minutes 90% of the time. I also don't think public transport is very affordable. It's 2 pounds for a ticket whether you want to get off at the Next bus stop or after the 15 bus stop. A monthly bus pass is now 49 pounds for students, but they keep increasing the price every year. Last year it was 46 pounds.

Tips: Students should be open to everything the university has to offer. Embrace the life that comes along with it. It's simple but effective in the long run, and you won't regret it later on. Of course, there will always be things you couldn't be a part of, but that's okay. Cherish the rest of your time there, and you'll look back and cherish it all for sure. I'm pretty satisfied with my time at University College Dublin.
Likes (Part time work): They've got a pretty good system for roles within the university and I'm a recipient of them. If going through the right channel and succeed in your interviews/assessment centres, the opportunities within the university are crazy for part-time. It is quite manageable with your coursework given the fact that you have good time management skills. The average payout is 12/hour.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It's pretty fragile and extremely difficult to obtain sponsorship after the course commences and the Graduate visa is granted. I wouldn't likely want to permanently immigrate here as I've got other preference in life and this country doesn't fulfil them all.

Navigating growth, challenges, and opportunity in university life.
Tips: Before starting university, make sure you're comfortable with basic household tasks like cooking and cleaning. Students spend a lot of time studying, and learning these skills ahead of time can save you considerable time and help you keep up with the assignments, attend classes, and still enjoy university life. Birmingham is a fantastic city with access to nearly everything you might need, from Indian utensils and spices to food and there's almost nothing you won't find. However, if your mood is affected by the weather, be prepared for long stretches of gray, rainy days, with little sunlight for 6-7 months. The climate can be challenging, so building emotional resilience is helpful as well.
Likes (Public transportation): Buses are very frequent and you can get a bus in 5-10 minutes. The university has also its own bus service which is run for specific routes every day. The university has an integrity rail on the campus which also connects to the major and minor stations of the city.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): All the big 4 and MBB companies visited the university for the job fairs and offered internships and advice for the proper route for full-time jobs and with several on-campus activities to polish your soft and hard skills. The starting salary of a Business analyst with no or little experience at all is 338500 to 346000.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): I am still studying at the University and therefore do not have a strong idea as to how helpful they are in assisting for long-term jobs. However, they do provide resources that can aid in CV writing and interview practice which will help when applying for such jobs.

Dislikes (Value for money): I really liked the campus and the facilities were good. I would recommend trying to get a job at the university as it is definitely beneficial. The university shares a lot of resources so there is no need to invest in any kind of personal resources.

The process of applying for a visa to work is expensive.
Tips: I have become more independent and have made friends across all nationalities. The simpler part of Leeds is its friendly crowd and social culture that makes it easy for making friends. The university is in the city centre, which makes it very accessible. The Leeds City Bus Services are a convenient way to get around, and the train and bus stations are both within two miles’ distance of the university. Using your student pass to purchase tickets makes bus travel affordable, and having a rail card gives you discounts on travel between cities. I did not avail of any scholarships as I come from an Indian university tie-up programme. I am quite satisfied with my university and the UK in general.

The most effective and efficient method for students to acquire knowledge and make progress.
Tips: This institution of higher learning operates differently from its Indian counterparts, especially traditional written examinations in favour of an assessment-based approach. Classes typically convene for two to three days each week. Prior to my enrollment, I was the recipient of a scholarship, and with the assistance of my agent, I was able to successfully navigate the application process. This scholarship opportunity is also available to other prospective students.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is a convenient option for students. Student pass discounts are available for a month, making it affordable to use buses and trains. However, the convenience of public transportation may depend on your location. If you live far from the university, you may need to walk to the bus stop.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs offer great flexibility and accessibility, making them suitable for a wide range of individuals. However, achieving above-average compensation may pose a challenge. Despite this, I am successfully managing my financial obligations with the current minimum payout.

Satisfying experience at Leeds Beckett University
Tips: Before joining, students should be aware of cultural diversity, prepare for potential cultural shifts, and research scholarship opportunities. I transition smoothly with minor cultural adjustments. I obtained a scholarship based on academic excellence, providing financial support for my studies. Overall, I'm highly satisfied with Leeds Beckett University, its course quality, and the welcoming environment of the country.
Likes (Post study jobs): I rated permanent immigration/settlement options a 5 because my chances of permanent settlement in this country are favourable due to my qualifications and the country's immigration policies. Given the opportunity, I would consider permanently immigrating to this country as it offers stability, opportunities for growth, and a high quality of life.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I rated the internship a 4 because while there is some guidance available for finding and applying for the internship, it could be more comprehensive. Additionally, the available internships are somewhat relevant to my field of study, but there is room for improvement in terms of alignment with my specific interests and career guidance.

Lovable and easy going environment at Leeds Beckett University.
Tips: Coming to Leeds as an International student is a very enriching experience as you get a lot of exposure and get to learn a new way of life. We have close to about 60K students studying here so you get a very positive transition experience. I got a scholarship of 2K early bird which students can avail based on their academic record. I love the experience here in UK.
Dislikes (Student Life): Our university offers a diverse and exciting student life experience. We also have guest lectures where students get the opportunity to learn from the experiences of renowned guests. University also has a lot of societies in which you can become a member and network with people.

Best university in the city of Leeds
Tips: We have a scholarship at this university. I love the course and the systematic studies. The university experience is also nice and they not only focus on studies but also on other extracurricular activities which encourages the students as well.
Likes (Quality of faculty): They are really nice. I love their teaching and the techno is also very good. The teaching faculty members never discriminated. They are good with each person. The methodology is also good and unique. They make study interesting also. It is easy to approach the faculty members.
Dislikes (Part time work): We don't get part-time easily and do not get much help. If we get more knowledge about the part times then it would be easier for the International students as we come from different places and do not have much knowledge. I would appreciate if we get to know more about the jobs and how to get them.

One can say Leed Beckett university is one of the great university for changing life of students
Tips: The transition was a little harder for me as there were no friends. Initially, all the students were not that friendly to me but after some time it got better and I made some foreign friends who were good to me and were very supportive and friendly. I did not experience any major cultural shift except for the standard of living in England.

Experience beyond your thinking
Tips: My confidence has increased after studying and interacting with different cross-cultural students and faculty members at the University. I think almost everyone who got good grades in high school or Bachelor got a reasonable scholarship from this university. My satisfaction is above average with regard to the University course and country.
Likes (Safety): If you live in the main city center, then you have to pay more but there are no safety issues apart from the other areas such as Hyde Park, Harehills, and Bradford which are not so safe for anyone. I live nearby Headingley Stadium which is one of the safest places in Leeds.
Dislikes (Value for money): MBA, if I did it in India from one of the top colleges or even above-average colleges, it would cost me around 15 Lacs or more. Over here, my fee was 12.5 Lacs which was way better than Indian colleges and the exposure you get was an exceptional one. After completing your course, you can repay your education loan without any delay which is not easy in India.

I feel great that i am a part of this university.
Tips: I think that you will learn different cultures as most of the students here are from different countries. And yes they offer different kind of scholarships you should check your eligibility on their website and apply according and I am truly satisfied with my course.
Likes (Part time work): University offers many part time roles in university and even some full time roles for student with sponsorship and yes they help in getting part time jobs off campus also. You can easily manage your part time work along with your studies and you will pe paid according to minimum wages declared by government.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Because you will get only 2 year post study work permit after completing your studies other options are available like sponsorship from any organisation but university will not help you in getting these options you have to look for them by yourself only.

Good and supportive people
Tips: Students coming here should know how to prepare for the exams. And it is also important to know how to behave in class because a lot of international students are there from different countries. Also, try to understand the British accent as soon as possible otherwise it will be more difficult to understand.
Likes (Internships): I did not choose any internship programme. But a lot of my classmates did and they said that doing an internship was helpful after finishing the course. Most of the students are grateful for doing an internship.
Dislikes (Part time work): I got a lot of options for part-time work. But the problem was time management. As it is hard to manage work with classes cause the time clashes. However, I am getting a lot of calls for work opportunities.

Go for it, it’s a great experience!
Tips: Students should be open to communication with people from all backgrounds and not be stuck in their comfort zone while being here. And most importantly plan their move months in advance and not make it an impulsive decision. It takes a while to get used to so don't expect to seamlessly assimilate here.
Likes (Value for money): The cost of the course is a bit higher than most undergraduate courses. But the return on investment is generally higher for MBA courses. I also got a scholarship which made my life a bit easier given that studying abroad can become very expensive especially when you don't have time to work.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Leeds has not many transportation options, as there is no tram line like Manchester and Ubers can be expensive. The bus prices are increasing very frequently and the train station is only in the city centre and Burley and you may have to walk quite a bit for it.

Average University, beautiful campus
Tips: I got a scholarship of 32000. There is a cultural shift because UK is not our home country. Don't expect that you will land a job immediately after Masters. You should have prior knowledge of your field before Masters. Minimum professional experience is mandatory.
Likes (Part time work): On campus part time jobs are just for name sake, as it is less than 20%. Off-campus opportunities are average, good to have your own vehicle for work so that you can opt for warehouse jobs. 20 hours a week is manageable without getting our studies hampered. Payout on NI job is about 310 on average.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Food outside is the worst. You won't be able to get South Indian options, and not worth the price at all. I always prefer cooking at home. A lot of Pakistanis sell food in the name of Indian food. Indian grocery is limited and expensive. Other region food options are good.

Friendly and experienced lectures
Tips: The best aspect of living on campus is the convenience. Its easy to attend classes and scheduled events. There are many facilities we get from campus such as library, gym and sports area. In terms of food especially Indian food, it is quite expensive.
Likes (Internships): There are multiple reasons why Internships are good here, the first being the training we receive from the university. Tutors are ready to respond at all times. Campus has good academics and values. In the university, we have a well being centre for students to help them with mental stress.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Location of the college is the best. Have good facilities like buses, friendly lectures, tutors with good academic skills. Both campuses are located in the city with good transportation system. Studnet life is designed well. College is value for money, safe and best to do part time work.

Despite that faculty of Beckett is very friendly they take local and international lectures together. For local they hire local teachers and for international, they do the same.
