Why Study in UK?

Being home to four beautiful and liveable countries – England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, the UK is one of the most popular international study destinations for Malaysian students. 
 
The advantages of studying in the UK are limitless as it is undoubtedly one of the top destinations to study abroad. Reportedly, 90 UK universities have been ranked in the QS World University Rankings 2021. So for such a small landmass, the UK certainly has a strong concentration of university-level education. 
 
The Universities in the UK provide fantastic benefits to students coming beyond borders. The Quality Assurance Agency (QAA), an independent body functions exclusively to set, monitor, and safeguard the quality of higher education in the UK. Hence, without a doubt, students in UK universities will benefit from cutting-edge infrastructure, research laboratories, better employability, and guidance to prepare them for a successful career.
If you study in the UK, be it the foundation, college, undergraduate, or postgraduate level, you will experience a vibrant multicultural life, from music, festivals, arts, food, football matches, ancient castles to modern cities along with quality education. Not just that, the UK can be your gateway to Europe, where another 40 countries await you.

In addition, with the new Graduate Route, international students who study in the UK will be able to stay in the UK and work or look for work, at any skill level for two years after graduation. From summer 2021, the Graduate Route is available to international students who successfully complete their degree at undergraduate level or above at a UK Higher Education Provider with a track record of compliance.

Living Cost in the UK for International Students

Students from over 200 different countries choose to study in the UK due to its affordability and high standards of education.

Tuition Fees/year £10,000 ~ £20,000 (Subject to the course)
Living Cost /year £11,000 (in London) £10,000 (Outside London)

One of the advantages of studying in the UK is that you can work for up to 20 hours per week during term time and full time when you’re on holidays.

If you study in the UK, as an international student who has completed an undergraduate or postgraduate degree you are allowed to get a Graduate Route visa (also known as Post-study work visa) that is valid for 2 years, and if a student has completed a Ph.D., it’s valid for 3 years. The validity of the visa is non-extendable, but being an international student you are allowed to apply for a different visa such as a Skilled Worker visa if your Graduate route visa expires. 

To apply for a Graduate route visa one must hold a Student visa or Tier 4 (General) student visa and the applicant must be in the UK when applying for the visa. You’ll need to pay the visa application fee that is usually £700 in addition to the healthcare surcharge of  £624 for each year you will be staying in the UK.

Furthermore, when applying for a Graduate route visa you would need:

  • A Passport
  • Biometric Residence Permit (BRP)
  • Your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) reference number
