United Kingdom

The United Kingdom is also a preferred destination for students willing to study abroad. UK has been welcoming international students for generations and it provides special advisory services through British Council office and the British Library. In UK, the most popular subjects with Indian students are Business and Management Studies, Engineering, Information Technology, Medicine and subjects related to medicine, Law, Science and Technology courses and Art & Design courses.

A good starting point for information is the Education UK websitehttp://www.educationuk-in.org/ which has a course search facility, answers to frequently asked questions, news stories about life in the UK, funding information, etc. Courses in the UK are often shorter, so the total cost of study can be lower. Shorter courses also mean students can realize their earning potential sooner than their counterparts elsewhere. All of which makes UK courses better value for money overall. While the course fees can range from £6,000 to £17,500, the cost of living is not the same throughout the country.

Generally, it is more expensive to live in London and the South-East of England, and cheaper in the North of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Average annual costs of living for a typical student in London can be approximately £7,300 per academic year and it would be lower outside London.

There are many benefits available to international students that can make life in the UK more affordable like the NUS Discounts, Free Healthcare, and Part-time Work. Also, universities and colleges in the UK are increasingly international with students from all over the world.

More than ninety countries may be represented on campus and each student makes a unique contribution to the life of the institution, both academically and culturally.
