Study In UK

Gain a world-class Education:

UK education is all about inspiring you to develop your knowledge and skills, allowing you to be creative, and supporting you to help you achieve your best.

UK schools, colleges, universities, and English language centers offer a world-class education. With such a strong reputation for research and teaching, UK universities and colleges attract some of the world’s leading academics and industry professionals.

This attention to quality is reflected in the UK’s excellent results:

Open the Doors to Your Dream Career:
UK courses give you the skills, qualifications, and connections you need for your chosen career:

Many UK courses are designed in partnership with businesses and taught by industry professionals, so you will gain real experience for your future career. Some courses also give you a chance to do a work placement as part of your studies, working for a business, charity, or public sector organization (checking your visa status allows you to do this).

Perfect your English:
An estimated 600,000 students from around the world come to England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales each year to take an English language course.

Have the adventure of a lifetime:

Studying in the UK is a chance to discover its unique culture, cities, and countryside. There’s so much to learn across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Luckily, it is easy to travel around the UK.

Feel at home:

The UK is a friendly, welcoming place for people of all countries, cultures, and faiths.

In 2012, over 500,000 international students from 200 countries studied at UK schools, colleges, and universities, and a further 600,000 students came to do an English language course. As a student in the UK, you’ll get to know people from all over the world and learn about many different cultures.

Many schools, colleges, and universities have international student societies to ensure you feel welcome and supported throughout your time in the UK. These societies organize activities such as parties, pub quizzes, film nights, and excursions to local tourist attractions, so hopefully, you’ll quickly make friends with other international students.

The UK is a multi-faith society where all major religions are practiced and celebrated. Christianity is the largest religion, followed by Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism, Judaism, and Buddhism, while around a quarter of the population is not religious. In large towns and cities, you will find churches, mosques, temples, synagogues, gurdwaras, and other places of worship, so if you worship regularly at home, you can continue to do so in the UK.

There is extensive support in the UK for students with disabilities and special educational needs. Most join mainstream schools, colleges, and universities, but there are also education centers for children and adults needing additional support.

At your school, college, or university, there will be a student welfare officer and, most likely, an international student officer, too, dedicated to the well-being of students. They are there to advise on personal problems and help you find any support you need during your studies. At boarding schools, students are looked after by ‘house parents’, a resident nurse and form tutor.

Most institutions run an orientation program to help new students settle in and get to know their new campus and fellow students.

The UK government welcomes international students, and there is no limit on the number of student visas that can be issued. Thousands of international students successfully secure a visa to study in the UK each year. Our Visas article provides more information, and the process of applying for a visa is explained on the UK Border Agency website.

Study your way:

UK education allows you to choose a course that matches your ambitions and interests and study in a way that suits you. With thousands of UK courses, you can follow your passions and gain a qualification to help you in your chosen career.

Many UK courses have a ‘modular’ structure. This means you can build a personalized course by choosing modules or units of study from different subject areas. For example, if you are studying for a bachelor’s degree in English literature, you could select one module on Science fiction, one on Children’s literature, one on Short stories, etc.

Suppose you are interested in more than one subject. In that case, you may be able to study a combination as part of your course – for example, English literature with psychology or Tourism with French.

Many courses can be studied full-time or part-time. If you need a visa to study in the UK, checking your immigration status allows you to join a part-time course. Find out more at the UK Border Agency website.

Get great value for money:

When starting your career, UK qualifications significantly boost your salary and your CV. According to the Tracking International Graduate Outcomes survey (BIS), international students educated in the UK achieve considerably higher wages after graduation, on average, than if they had been educated at home.
