Life at Swansea University is satisfying in terms of both academics and personal growth.

Tips: As for transitioning to Swansea University, it's common to face a cultural shift, with the difference in language, food, social customs, and academic expectations. Regarding scholarships, Swansea University offers various scholarship opportunities for international students based on merit. I find the University, course fulfilling.

Fantastic experience. And it's worth to study in Swansea University

Tips: There is quite a change which is good. Studies are more oriented in practical form and a cultural shift is definitely there. Coming from North Indian spending a-lot of time with south Indian and multi-culture communities from all around the world was quite good, knowing their culture and accommodating with open-minded people, was one of the best experiences I've seen and felt in a while. Scholarships are available for Swansea University to attain a 4000 scholarship by doing proper research. My s...

Swansea is good for accounting and B-courses.

Tips: I can't say there is a lot of cultural shift as it varies from person to person for me it wasn't that much issue as like a student I like doing things all by myself or balancing life between academics and part-time. Make sure to prepare yourself for all these challenges rest everything else will be good. I came here only for accounting to do it with ACCA and the course was good. There's a lot of learning even from your batchmates. I got a scholarship of 4000 pounds and I was satisfied with it. M...

Safe place to stay, good for higher education.

Tips: No matter from what part of India you are the transition is bound to take place. Make sure you interact with other fellow students and it will be better if you can develop some relations with the facilities team too. The entire team is forthcoming and helpful. I personally haven't availed of any scholarship but many Indian students are on some kind of fee waivers, so get some knowledge about them. The course is Industry-oriented and is very precise.

Tips: I attended Swansea University to study Aerospace Engineering and I found that the student life was alright. As it was quite difficult to find a good housing facility within budget as there are very few off-campus housing options.
