Study in the UK
A tradition of academic excellence and a vibrant student life.
Why Study in the UK?
The United Kingdom is home to some of the world's oldest and most prestigious universities. A UK education is highly valued by employers globally, and students benefit from a rich history, a multicultural environment, and access to a wide range of cultural experiences across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Unique Advantages
- World-Renowned Universities: Study at institutions with centuries of academic legacy and cutting-edge research.
- Graduate Route Visa: Eligible graduates can stay in the UK to work for two years (three for PhD graduates) after their studies.
- Diverse & Shorter Courses: Many UK degrees are shorter than in other countries (e.g., 3-year Bachelor's, 1-year Master's), saving you time and money.
General Entry Requirements
Entry requirements vary by university but generally follow a standardized system.
- Undergraduate: A-Levels, IB Diploma, or an equivalent international high school qualification. Foundation programmes are widely available.
- Postgraduate: A bachelor's degree with a good classification (e.g., Upper Second-Class Honours).
- English Language: A UKVI-approved IELTS test is typically required, with scores ranging from 6.0 to 7.0 depending on the course and university.
Living & Tuition Costs
Costs in the UK can vary significantly between London and other cities.
- Average Tuition Fees: £11,400 - £38,000 per year for undergraduate programs.

Work Rights for Students
Most international students on a Student visa can work up to 20 hours per week during term time and full-time during holidays. The Graduate Route visa is a key benefit, allowing graduates to work in the UK after their studies.
