THE UK IS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE & STUDY

A FEW REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER STUDYING IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

THE ECONOMY

The United Kingdom’s economy is huge. In fact, it’s the sixth largest in the world and has enjoyed steady economic growth until the current world economic downturn. In essence though, businesses are still growing and people are finding work.

EDUCATION

The UK fulfills the criteria for many students’ needs and has some of the best universities in the world.

QUICK COURSE COMPLETION

In the UK, you can complete your course faster than other countries. An undergraduate course takes just three years and a postgraduate program takes only a year to complete. Shorter course terms enable you to fast-track your professional career. This also brings down your overall expenses of pursuing international education.

HEALTHCARE

Not every country in the world has a solid healthcare system. In fact, very few have a National Health Service (NHS) like the UK. Legal residents in the UK have access to free healthcare. International students can access the NHS upon payment of the International Health Surcharge (IHS).

CULTURE

There are few places with such a rich culture as the UK. With its mixed ethnic population and a long and interesting history, it is a fascinating place to explore.

GEOGRAPHICALLY WELL PLACED

The UK is ideally placed for taking short trips to other countries. Many European destinations can be reached in just a few hours from London, which makes it a great travel hub.
