The UK is one of the most preferred destinations for foreign students. Not only does it impart all its education in the English language but is also closer to home than regards other countries. In the recent past, the UK has been relaxing visa norms for foreign students and has been very liberal in offering scholarships to deserving students. Most the Bachelor’s degree courses are of a duration of three years. At the same time, the biggest reason why students get most attracted to the UK for master’s degree program is that the UK offers 1 year Master’s degree, unlike other countries which offer 2 years Master’s degree.
The average tuition fees in a UK university range from $16000USD TO USD 2,00,00, which is definitely on the higher side. However, students are allowed to work for 20 hours a week anywhere during term time, even outside the campus, and 40 hours during non-term time. This not only eases the burden on the shoulders of the students but also helps them attain valuable experience.
Just like in most other foreign countries, to seek admission in a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programs, a student needs a respectable TOEFL and IELTS score. On the other hand, to seek admission to an MBA program and other business programs student needs to have a respectable, score on GMAT as well as IELTS and TOEFL.
After completion of the program, a student can apply for a work permit if they find a sponsor, but unlike in other countries, students automatically do not get a one-year right to work after completion of the program. It is being anticipated that in the recent future the UK BA will be easing out visa implications for foreign visas and may provide them with the flexibility of work after completion of their course.
