Why Study In the UK
World renowned universities
Home to Oxford and Cambridge universities, British universities take a disproportionate number of places in the world university league tables. In fact, nearly a fifth of the world’s top 50 universities are in the UK according to the QS World University Rankings 2020!
Work opportunities
The UK Government has also announced a new post-study visa that will allow international students who graduate from the summer of 2021 to stay and work in the UK for a further two years.
Work while you learn
Generally, an international student can work up to 20 hours a week during term-time, and 10 hours when school is out.
Shorter degrees
In the UK, you can usually complete an undergraduate degree in 3 years if you study full time. A master’s degree usually takes 1 year. This is in contrast to other countries such as the USA, where undergraduate degrees take at least 4 years to complete, and a master’s degree takes 2 years to finish.
Travel connections
Getting to mainland Europe from the UK is easier than ever before. Whether it’s by plane or train, studying in the UK allows students to reach other parts of Europe in a matter of hours.
