Interested in studying abroad in England? Follow these tips to get started.
1. Research programs and universities
While studying in England, you'll come across plenty of history, stunning architecture, and of course, high-quality academics from world-renowned universities.
There are a few different ways to study abroad. You can apply through direct enrollment, join faculty-led programs at your university, or go through a third-party study abroad program provider, who will handle logistics, room and board, and additional support.
When deciding which is the right route for you, consider cost, the type of study abroad experience you're looking for, and how much support you'd like to have while abroad.
2. Prepare essential documents
To study in England, you'll need to have a valid passport, student visa (if studying abroad longer than 6 months!), and proof of funds.
3. Find accommodations
If you go through a third-party provider, likely your accommodation will already be sorted out for you! But if you go through direct enrollment, you can see if your university offers housing options.
4. Start budgeting!
Now that you're enrolled, got your room and board figured out, and the real excitement of studying in England is starting to all kick in, it's the perfect time to begin budgeting! Make sure to establish a budget before you head overseas, to ensure you don't max out your credit card over the semester.
5. Have the best time studying abroad in England!
Be sure to join clubs, meet new people, and enjoy day trips throughout the UK!
