The following are a set of common documents you will need while applying for UK universities.
Let’s see the list of documents required in the entire process to procure a visa.
Note:
Several educational institutions offer scholarships to international students. Various government scholarships cover full tuition fees. However, one needs to be exceptional to get them owing to the volume of the applicants.
Other sources of funding you may want to consider are the British Chevening Scholarships, the British Council Fellowship Programme, the Commonwealth Scholarships and Fellowship Programme (CSFP), the Shared Scholarship Scheme and the Overseas Research Students Award Scheme (ORSAS).
Note:
Apart from this, one can look at the scholarship and bursaries page of each shortlisted university to find out scholarship offers, requirements, eligibility and deadlines.

When it comes to studying abroad in the United Kingdom, your way of life will depend on where you stay. A big city like London may seem bustling while a small town like Bangor may seem quiet and at ease. Punctuality, queue system and minding one’s own business are the primary traits of the British. One may seem a little creepy trying to be too friendly with strangers. The British are too polite and you may find no shouting or uncanny noise anywhere.
The cities with maximum students in the UK are London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, Oxford, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Nottingham, Newcastle, and Coventry. Starting from small towns like Essex to big cities like London, one can find courses such as Media Studies, MS and MBA anywhere in the United Kingdom.
For all international students, the visa applications include a payment of Immigration Health Surcharge if they are to study for more than 6 months in the UK. It costs around £150 which will cover you for one year.
Just like life in the UK, the weather also depends on where you stay. Overall, it is known to be one of the most unpredictable. English weather is hardly bad enough that it stops you from doing something but it makes everything less enjoyable. It rains a lot. The hottest it gets is at 38 degrees, at times come triggering storms. The coldest can be -26 degrees.
