Student life
Studying in the United Kingdom can allow international students to experience the best of student life.
Many universities have integrated halls of residence and students become firm friends with their flatmates and others on their course.
Societies and sports are a great way to get involved with British life. The majority of universities have Athletic Unions and compete against each other in sports such as rugby, football, netball, and swimming.
Student Unions are also home to societies and community groups. This includes International Students’ Societies and volunteering groups in the local area.
You can also work part-time alongside your studies, which is a great way to gain valuable experience and develop your CV. There is also the opportunity to work in the UK after graduation.
Life for students in the UK is fun and rewarding, so no wonder it’s such a popular destination!
