MSc Bioinformatics - Batch of 2023

It has been a very special experience for me with wonderful and friendly people on campus.
Tips: Studying here has been one of my goals for a very long time and the campus and college have truly lived up to my expectations. I did receive a scholarship of around 7,500 USD which based on merit, that made it possible for me to study here. Students should definitely read up on the course requirements and ensure that their paperwork is completed promptly.

I feel great about everything here.
Tips: There is a lot of variety in the form of courses, clubs and campus events. Because of this, it can sometimes become extremely paced and busy which is why figure out a few of the lesser popular areas and in case you need the library, you can book one of the meeting rooms. Signing up for a meal plan can also make your life easier.

MSc in Data and Decision Analytics - Batch of 2023
3.6
A good place to learn and grow significantly.
Tips: I found the city and the campus very student friendly and welcoming, which made my transition here much smoother and simpler than I had anticipated. The weather can be harsh, but the beautiful landscape makes up for it. Even though the academic programs can be intense, I have learned a lot through this experience. Make sure to balance your academics with other ongoing campus activities.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Immigration in general has become an added difficulty especially here as the rules and regulations keep changing every two years on an average and the eligibility requirement seems practical at this point. It is a better idea to gain experience here and settled elsewhere.

The experience has been great with good faculty.
Tips: I have gained a lot of valuable lessons here, especially by studying in this country. It will take you a while to settle in but this place will be worth your while. Before your classes start, explore the nearby locality and go for an accommodation that suits your class proximity. The ideal rent rates tend to vary but if you room with someone you can save up to 500 or more each month. Other than this, the city has a lot of activities for students.

The college environment is vibrant and friendly.
Tips: Studying at Edinburgh has opened a lot of opportunities for me as the environment here is vibrant and accepting. The classes have intense workload which can case additional stress at times. There are on campus student counsellors to help you out through this phase. Joining peer mentorship can help you out through your academic journey here. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course and the country.

A lot of growth and learning.
Tips: I have learned how to gain more self-reliance and independence as you will be expected to take care of your own well-being while maintaining your academic schedule as well. Although I did not apply for any scholarships, my course has been very valuable for me because of the faculty and has also helped me gain the background necessary to transition into journalism which is ultimately my plan. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the country, course and university.
