Studying in the UK
So, you are interested in studying in the UK. You may already be studying here. But are you aware of all the different options there are for continuing your studies and preparing for your career? Here is our guide to the most popular English language and academic courses on offer in the UK, to help you plan your future.

English courses
These are the places to start your studies in the UK. Students want to learn English for many different reasons, and so there are many different courses on offer. The three main types are: general courses, work-related courses and study-related courses. These are the ones you will find most often:
Vacation courses
These courses are popular with adults and teenagers and are the perfect way to combine a holiday with learning some English. Junior courses usually combine English with sightseeing and sports. Adult courses are often called English Plus, because students can choose to study something else often culture, or a sport - as well as the language. Courses often last just a week or two weeks.
profession, including law, medicine, administration, journalism and tourism.
Business English
Take your career to new levels with these courses, which will give you the vocabulary for meetings, presentations and other vital aspects of business life. Courses are usually intensive. Centres which are members of Business English UK use authentic materials, specialise in courses for professionals, and meet the standard expected by executives.
and may help you improve faster. English Language centres often offer one-to-one tuition which can be part of regular studies. Some companies specialise in placing students in a tutors home for intensive learning.
General and Intensive English

These are a great choice for most students who want to improve their language skills for education or work. Courses will cover speaking, reading and writing and you can join them for a few weeks or many months. The tutors will make sure that you become better and more confident at speaking during the course. You will also get the chance to take English exams to show what you have achieved. This is a good idea for your career and your studies, and can be helpful if you need to apply for a student visa later.
These courses are for career beginners. The course involves classroom-based learning and English teaching, followed with a work placement or internship and usually leads to a qualification.
Courses for teachers of English

Learning more is the best way to become a better teacher. These courses usually include creative teaching techniques, culture, and using technology in lessons as well as improving your language skills. Longer courses can lead to postgraduate qualifications.
If you need an English qualification at a certain level for a job or more studying these courses are worth considering. You will learn how to pass exams, and how to obtain high grades.
Foundation or Pathway courses

Get ready to study for a degree in the UK with a special course which combines study skills, English tuition and specialist subject learning. These courses fill the gap between the end of school in many countries and the start of a university course in the UK.
English for Specific Purposes (also called ESP)

These courses are perfect for people who need to be able to do their job in English. You will find courses specialising in almost every
One to One/Home tuition

These courses are for committed students who want intensive tuition. They can be designed to meet your needs

Academic courses in the UK

Thousands of students from all over the world fulfil their dreams every year by working for a UK academic qualification. Our universities and colleges are worldfamous, and our qualifications are recognised everywhere. But our education system can be confusing, so here is a quick guide to the institutions, courses and qualifications you may be considering. Remember that you will be studying in English.
A-Levels: These are the highest level L of academic qualification available in the school system for England and Wales. They are typically taken by 18 year olds at the end of a two year course. An A Level is split into two year long courses. The first year leads to an AS level (which is a qualification in its own right) and the second leads to A2. English and Welsh students applying for university places are usually studying A Levels. In Scotland, school students will study Highers instead. International students may take A Levels in private colleges, private schools, or in public colleges if they are from the European Economic Area. Undergraduate degree/First Degree/Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Science/Honours degree: These are the different ways we describe a first university-level degree. It is usually studied at a university, higher education institution, or sometimes a public or private college. Most university courses in England, Wales and Ireland are three years long (though there are exceptions), but Scottish courses usually last four years. Masters qualifications/MA, MSc: This is the next level up from a first degree. Courses are usually for one or two years, and are in a subject related to the first degree or one which the student is considering for a doctorate. Masters courses are usually studied at a university. MBA: Masters in Business Administration courses are becoming very popular and are often taken by people after they have begun their careers. The UK is very well known for its world-class MBA courses, which are usually taught at business schools. MBA students often come direct from business or industry. Doctorate/PhD/DPhil: These are all research-based qualifications. The student must complete an original research programme. They will then write up their research, which will be examined by their universitys specialist panel. This is the highest level of qualification in the UK system.
Where can I take English examinations? Which exams can I take?

English language centres will usually offer you the opportunity to study for recognised qualifications. These are available at different levels and for different purposes. Some of the best-known qualifications are: Basic level: Key English Test Intermediate level: Preliminary English Test, BEC Preliminary Upper-intermediate level: First Certificate in English, BEC Vantage High level: Cambridge English: Advanced, BEC Higher Most advanced level: Certificate of Proficiency in English IELTS can be taken as an academic or general training exam and scores cover the full ability range. TOEFL exams also cover a wide ability range Pearson PTE exams are available from Foundation to Proficient

Why studying for a degree is still a great investment!

The sharp increases in undergraduate fees to be charged in the UK from September 2012 and proposals for tightening visa conditions, have led to a heated debate as to whether it is still worthwhile to study for a degree in the UK.
The average annual fees for UK and EU students are expected to rise from a current figure of just over 3,000 per annum to over 8,000 per annum, with many universities charging the maximum 9,000 fee, at least for some courses. Whilst there has been no major increase in fees for non-EU students, visa conditions have been tightened, for example while non-EU students will still be able to work in the UK for up to two years after graduation, they must now secure jobs which earn over 21,000 per year! Why then bother to study for a degree in the UK at all?! Fortunately for students and for UK universities there is considerable evidence to suggest that investing your time and money to study for a degree in the UK is still very much in your interest. Here are just some reasons why! The average graduate in the UK earns around 24% more than the average non-graduate with A-levels (or overseas equivalent), giving a net additional lifetime earnings to UK graduates of over 120,000. This average figure will vary from the course and subject you study. For example; Accounting graduates in the UK earn, on average, some 40% more than graduates in Arts subjects such as History, English or Geography. Even if you already have a professional qualification, combining this with a degree considerably increases your lifetime earnings. For example chartered accountants with a degree earn 23% more than chartered accountants without a degree, a difference of around 400,000 in gross earnings over a 45 year career. Where you study also matters! The London School of Economics has the highest average graduate salaries
12

within six months of graduating, currently 30,932, followed by Imperial College (30,512) and University College London (26,304). However don't always assume the older universities with the highest status will necessarily give you the most income! Interestingly, London South Bank University graduates earn an average of 26,307 within six months of graduation; higher than Oxford (26,156) and Cambridge (24,529) Universities.
Master of Business Administration (MBA)

There is certainly good news for those having taken their MBA or who are about to begin their MBA studies, as is clear from the results of a major survey by the Financial Times of the experiences of MBA graduates in 2010, three years after completing their MBA studies (www.ft.com/businesseducation/mba2011).
How can I find out more?

Certainly in an era of higher fees, with the charges varying by university and by course, there is much to be gained by finding out as much as you can before you make your application or accept your offer! There is a growing range of online resources such as Bestcourse4me.com. They include such sources to help you make your choice, giving information on expected future income (and costs) for specific courses in specific institutions. You compare starting salaries, starting occupations and employment prospects across different universities and courses. Being better informed in an era of higher fees is obviously very much in your own interest! It may be useful at this point to give an example of the benefits of finding out more by using one particular and increasingly popular postgraduate course, namely the Master of Business Administration (MBA).
Three years after gaining your MBA you can, on average, expect the following.
Your salary to be an average of 90% higher than your salary in the year before taking your MBA To have achieved the four most important reasons identified by MBA students for choosing this course, namely: - Increased earnings - Enhanced management development skills - A change of employer or of career focus - Improved networking Higher status in terms of changed job title as compared to before starting the MBA 7 times as many MBA graduates had President/MD/CEO in their title 8 times as many MBA graduates had Director/Vice President in their title 3 times as many MBA graduates had Department Head or Senior Executive in their title The MBA has traditionally sought to produce well-rounded senior executives, able to understand and contribute to discussions on all aspects of organisational policy, including strategic direction, finance, marketing, human resource and operations management. However the curriculum of today's MBA is being shaped by increasing organisational awareness of the importance of a number of key themes, including corporate, social and ethical responsibility, environmental sustainability, developing alliances and collaborative behaviour, creative thinking and innovation.

write a personal statement

A personal statement is a vital part of your application, both to the university you wish to join and to the specific course you have chosen. Since many universities no longer interview those who apply, the personal statement is your best opportunity to demonstrate why the university and course should choose you! Almost all university courses have more applicants than places available, so make the most of this opportunity. Important Do's
Do make sure you meet (or are likely to meet) the minimum requirements of the university and course. Visit the university website to find out what these requirements are! Do be university and course specific! Make it clear why you are applying to this particular university and course. Identify aspects of the course that are of particular interest to you. Show that you have thoroughly researched the course and know what is involved. Give examples of your suitability for this course, eg performance in the subject area, work experience, conferences attended, assignments completed, etc. Show how taking the course fits with what you want to do in the future. Do provide evidence that you are reliable, responsible and socially concerned. Work experience, including part-time jobs held Voluntary, community and charity work Membership of clubs, societies and committees Leadership roles Prizes won Help given at school or college events/open days, etc. Do emphasize your personal skills and interests Sport and leisure activities, including musical instruments played Languages spoken IT skills developed Level of English reached (eg IELTS 6.0) Other interests and achievements Do look at some examples of personal statements (eg: www.worldstudysolutions.com )
HOW TO...
Important Dont's
Don't show poor preparation, eg: having little knowledge of the particular course you are applying for Don't try to be funny or make jokes Don't start lots of sentences with 'I' Don't write down lists or bullet points without further explanation Don't make political statements Don't use complex language that you are not comfortable with

Personal Statements and UCAS If you are applying to university using the UCAS online application form (there are no paper-based applications) then there are some extra things you need to remember.
No more than 4,000 characters can be used, including spaces. Use the 'word count' tool on your word processor to check No more than 47 lines can be used Creating a new line after typing 85 characters will help meet both limits Above all, try to be positive and interesting. You are telling the admissions tutor why he/she should choose you for that specific course. Pay particular attention to the start and the finish. The starting paragraph influences the first impression of your application, and the finishing paragraph is what is most likely to be remembered. The box below may help to structure your paragraphs and your overall personal statement.
5-PARAGRAPH STRUCTURE P

These offer fantastic opportunities to travel around the UK and Europe.

We know you'll be busy studying, so to save you time we've put together some of the top attractions in Cambridge. Enjoy!
The Round Church
(Pictured below right) The Round Church in Cambridge was built in 1130 after the first crusade. It is an impressive Norman building based on the Church of the Resurrection in Jerusalem, and one of only four round churches in England. Queen Victoria visited the church in 1843 after it had been redesigned by the architect Anthony Salvin. Old Cavendish Laboratories were at one time the most important scientific laboratories in the world. Founded with a donation of 6,500 by the University Chancellor, William Cavendish, the 7th Duke of Devonshire (back in 1874), the Laboratories have produced over 20 Nobel Prize winners! the architect Henry Hutchinson and completed in 1869. Spectacular student pranks have included punting a small car along the river Cam and suspending it from the Bridge of Sighs!
The Mathematical Bridge

(Pictured below left) One of many famous bridges spanning the river Cam, the Mathematical Bridge was designed by William Etheridge in 1748. The college paid just 21 for the design. The bridge was originally used to link the President's Lodge at Queens' with the former Fellows garden on the opposite side of the Cam. A river tour along the 'Backs' provides the visitor with exceptional views of this bridge.
The Bridge of Sighs

The Bridge of Sighs at St John's College is modelled on the famous bridge in Venice. Built to connect the medieval courts with the 19th Century new court, this picturesque Cambridge bridge was designed by

The Senate House

The impressive Senate House was designed by James Gibbs, and dates from 1730. It is the parliament building of Cambridge University where student examinations are taken during the months of May and June; examination results are posted there, and degrees are conferred there during the graduation weekend at the end of June each year. The gap in the buildings along Senate House Passage is simply known as 'Senate House Leap'. It was here that University students once dared to jump

the University libraries. Designed by Giles Gilbert Scott and opened in 1934, the University Library is a copyright library that is entitled to a copy of every book that is published in the United Kingdom. If laid end to end, its current stock of 7 million books would stretch from Cambridge to Brighton on the south coast of England! Scott, was also responsible for designing the traditional red British telephone box, many of which are still visible in towns and villages throughout the UK. (The Library is closed to members of the public apart from access to various exhibitions throughout the year).

This area of the town would have been a building site at the time, with masons responsible for King's Chapel also working on Great St Mary's.The combination chimes on the clock tower were developed by Dr Jowett, a member of Trinity Hall in the 1790's, and were copied for the Westminster chimes at Big Ben in London.There are impressive views of the city and river from the top of the church tower which is open to the public at various times.

Shopping
Cambridge has become a fantastic place for shopping with the recent redevelopment of its main shopping centre, the Grand Arcade. With easy parking and most shops undercover, this stylish mall boats designer shopping as well as larger department stores such as John Lewis, alongside high street favourites like TopShop, and New Look. You will easily find most things you are looking for; there is a supermarket (Sainsbury's) as well as two Marks and Spencers in the city centre. Across town, you'll also find the Grafton Centre - another complete shopping experience under one roof, housing larger department stores such as BHS and Debenhams, as well as a cinema, and plenty of places to grab a bite to eat while you take a break from shopping!
Eating out
Cambridge is a fantastic place for eating out. Whether you just want to grab a coffee and watch the world go by, or experience fine dining, there really is something for everyone. Why not sample a drink from Nusha - Cambridge's trendiest cocktail bar, before the cinema, or try fabulous pasta at Jamie's, in the heart of town. Or if you fancy al fresco dining head to Don Pasquale's, on the corner of the Market Square, for great pizzas, and other Italian delights. Or, if you like to experience good food with good music, head to CB2's on Norfolk Street, for live music, good home cooked food and a great wine list!
27
CAMBRIDGE
CAMBRIDGE
The Corn Exchange and the Arts Theatre, both in the heart of the centre have fabulous productions all year round, many of them touring here prior to a West End debut - guaranteeing quality. And then eat at Jamie's Italian, the Cambridge Chop House or the Varsity - all within a stone's throw.
CAMBRIDGE
Cambridge hasn't got the large selection of nightclubs that many other UK cities offer, but instead it is a city steeped in history reflected in its old pubs and restaurants. Because of the large student population there are also many student activities and performances from concerts to plays - visit one of the outdoor Shakespeare productions in August, or get along to the ADC theatre for Cambridge Footlights, where such stars as Emma Thompson and Stephen Fry started their careers! Cambridge also boasts a good selection of restaurants and bars, both in the city centre and by the river, or head to a pretty village such as Madingley or Grantchester, easily reached by bus or taxi for a fabulous meal and drinks with friends.

Shop til you drop

A classic mix of styles
Cambridge shopping ranges from the smallest dusty bookshops to the elegant Grand Arcade, recently refurbished and housing large department stores such as John Lewis. The Grafton Centre across town is also worth a visit.
You should visit... Grand Arcade

The newly redeveloped Grand Arcade. Enjoy three floors of shopping under one sky-llit roof with a choice of 60 fashion, beauty, home, jewellery, food and childrenswear retailers.

There's something for everyone; from the latest beauty brands to the finest Italian food, exquisite bed linens to beautifully cut suits, luxury spa treatments to fashionista accessories. Grand Arcade is where shopping comes to life.
Bookshops galore!
Cambridge is famous for its colleges and students so naturally bookshops abound. Visit the oldest bookshop site in the country at the University Press Bookshop, opposite the famous Senate House, or wander up the road to Heffers, opposite Trinity.
Going out
Life on the river
Cambridge is famous for its punting - travelling in a long low boat, steered by a long pole. Have a go yourself, or be in the safe hands of a chauffeur, whilst admiring the colleges along the 'Backs'.
Afternoon tea?
Take a punt or a stroll over the meadows to Grantchester the home of famous English Poet, Rupert Brooke. Enjoy tea in the leafy and beautiful Grantchester meadows before strolling back by the river to town.

Free time in Cambridge

Be inspired
Visit the famous Fitzwilliam Museum for its fabulous collection of art, ceramics and armour. It's worth the walk just to admire the classical exterior!
Dont miss... Kings College Chapel

This famous sight just embodies Cambridge. Its stunning architecture and beautiful ceiling is well worth a visit, and if you can, get tickets for evensong and listen to the world famous choir.
Both the Arts Theatre and the Cambridge Corn Exchange are great venues to see famous faces, great gigs and classic plays. Or see what's on at the ADC theatre, home to the Cambridge Footlights and the stars of tomorrow!
Why not try... Don Pasquale

Don Pasquale - the original & still the best Italian restaurant in Cambridge! Owned & run by the Benedetto family, you'll find Don Pasquale right on the market square in the centre of Cambridge. Whether you're looking for somewhere to go for a coffee, a lunch or an evening meal, at Don Pasquale you can be sure of a warm welcome. Either inside in our popular cellar restaurant or outside on our large patio area, where you can enjoy the lively atmosphere of the Cambridge market.
Something to eat on every street!

Well, almost! Cambridge has many of the high street chain restaurants such as Prezzo, Nandos and Macdonalds, but in beautiful buildings! Try Pizza Express on Jesus Lane - you won't regret it..
Traditional pub grub

Even in the city centre you can find good British food in the most traditional Cambridge pubs. The Eagle on Bene't Street with the famous RAF bar does great fish and chips. Or the Mitre on Bridge Street - a pie and pint at reasonable cost.

It is impossible to list the best places for enjoying a night out in London - but if you're into the clubbing scene, you should make a note to visit the superclubs such as Fabric, Heaven and Ministry of Sound.

Shop til you drop

Where to start?
If you're looking for souvenirs from your stay you'll find these kinds of shops all over the heart of the city or on most markets. Try Bond Street and Knightsbridge for designer boutiques (and Harrods of course!), or visit Camden or Greenwich for more ethnic and market style shops and stalls.
A shoppers paradise
You will never be far from any form of shopping in London. From designer boutiques to ethnic markets; from cheap and cheerful souvenirs, to upmarket and highly sought after delicacies. If you can't find it in London, it probably doesn't exist!
You should visit... Oxford Street - Oxford Street is the

place to shop if you're looking for clothes. A mixture of independent boutiques and high street fashion stores such as Topshop, Marks and Spencer and Zara - this is full of choice.
Going out
An afternoon off?
Decide what sort of thing you want to do and head out. There is so much choice in London - it'll be a hard decision! From cinemas to museums, boats on the river to just sitting watching the world go byit's hard to choose!
The tourist trail

Free time in London

South of the river?
Enjoy the views of the city from the South Bank - in fact why not take a Thames boat ride to sit back and admire the world famous skyline at your leisure? Enjoy the offerings from the world famous National Theatre, and finish up with dinner high up in the Oxo Tower.
Dont miss... Westminster Abbey

An awe inspiring cathedral - stunning architecture, steeped in over 1000 years of history, and still a living breathing modern church in the City of London. Most recently the marriage of H.R.H Prince William and Kate Middleton took place here, on 29th April 2011.
Need to stimulate your mind?

London is a haven for museums and art galleries. Don't forget to visit the Victoria and Albert Museum with its eclectic mix of permanent and temporary exhibitions. The Natural History and the Science Museums are also worth a visit!

Brighton has to be one of both the most fun places and the most attractive places in the British isles. The old fashioned pier, the fabulous restaurants, or the endless promenade that allows for gentle walking or cycling - not to mention the nightlife. There really is something for everyone here.

Shopping
You can't visit Brighton and not visit The Lanes. Wander to your heart's content around the quaint and quirky narrow streets, and admire the antiques, gift shops, and ethnic caverns - it's all so tempting!

It is an historic place for music - landmark memories such Abba winning the Eurovision Song Contest here, or the legendary Bing Crosby playing his last ever concert. And, to bring us right up to date, award winning DJ Fatboy Slim being a resident here, means that the coolest of clubs are right on the doorstep, in both Brighton and Hove, offering the best of dance mixes from Latino flavours to hard house beats. So whatever it is you're looking for to tempt you out in the evening, you can't do better than Brighton!
Eating out
Brighton is proud to be home to several very well established restaurants - and what could be better than fish and chips on the sea front? You'll find plenty of such eateries here, as well as more gastronomic delights! And what could be nicer on a summers' day, taking time out from your studies to just sit outside one of the numerous cafs on the sea front, and watch the world go by? Or if ethnic food is more your thing, you'll find plenty of Indian and Chinese restaurants towards the centre.

University of Oxford
Oxford University is the UK's oldest University. Founded around 1167, it is the second oldest university in the world. Most undergraduate teaching at Oxford is organised around weekly tutorials at the self-governing colleges, and backed up by lectures and classes through the faculties or departments. There are thirty-eight colleges and six permanent private halls. Each controls its own membership and is responsible for its own internal structure and activities. In addition to residential and dining facilities, the colleges provide social and recreational activities for their members. The Colleges take responsibility for admitting undergraduates and organising their tuition; yet for graduates, this responsibility falls upon the departments and faculties.
