Why should I consider studying in the UK?

UK schools, colleges and universities offer students a world-class education and with a strong reputation for research, innovation and creativity, UK institutions attract some of the world’s leading academics and industry professionals. Students are encouraged to express their own ideas and think for themselves. UK degree courses develop critical thinking, decision-making and creativity – skills that are valued by employers worldwide.

This attention to quality is reflected in the UK’s excellent results:

  • International undergraduate satisfaction in the UK is very high, at 91% overall. Meanwhile, 85% of international undergraduates would recommend or actively recommend their UK study experience, higher than any major English-speaking study destinations. (UK International Unit, December 2015)
  • Check out this link to learn about famous Canadians students whose study in the UK inspired them to achieve: http://www.britishcouncil.ca/study-uk/experience
    The UK is a multicultural society, and UK campuses are international communities. By studying in the UK you’ll gain an international perspective, learn about new cultures and socialise with students and teachers from around the world – valuable experience for a career in an international company. http://www.educationuk.org/canada/articles/have-the-adventure-of-a-lifetime/
  • Many UK higher education courses are shorter than in other countries. Typically, Bachelor’s degrees are of a three year duration and most Master's degrees take just one year. This means you can start your career sooner, getting a head start with real professional experience.
