Valuable learning experience with friendly faculty.

Tips: The University of Roehampton provides a diverse and supportive learning environment. It's important to engage with faculty and use all the resources provided, such as the library, career support, and guidance. In addition, getting involved with student societies like the RSU and Desi Society is a great way to meet new people and make friends.

Likes (Safety): The campus is safe whether it's day or night. There's no bullying or harassment. The university has taken steps to make the campus safe, such as installing 24/7 CCTV cameras, lighting the pathways, and providing a student support team. They also offer mental health support and workshops.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don't have any idea for settlement options here other than landing a visa sponsorship job and then working for 5 years. I am not thinking of getting permanently settled here. If chance is given to me, I'd love to but I need to think about it.

Try to focus on court ranking and your work experience rather than university ranking.

Tips: Students should know that the university ranking doesn't matter. What matters is the ranking of your course and the placement record of your university. You should ask previous students and alumni about the best way to know about your university and they can give you the best information. Don't just change universities based on rankings.

Likes (Indian Food): If you are concerned about finding Indian food in London, don't worry about it. There are Indian restaurants and grocery stores all over the city, and in places like Southall you can even find authentic Indian food.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): There is no campus placement office, so you are on your own to find a job after graduation. This can be a long process, as evidenced by the fact that none of my friends have found jobs in the last two years. My advice is to gain experience in India before coming here for your degree.

A good experience overall

Tips: I have not had much cultural shift because the reason might be I always stay with my Indian friends and I explore much here in the UK. I got a scholarship as I applied through a consultancy for 4000 pounds. The university is good with experienced faculty and a lively atmosphere. I have not experienced any racism of any kind. So, overall I had a positive experience with my university.
