opportunities, location, student support services, reputation, and inclusive community. I also considered

5. Why did you not consider your home country for this course?

Universities in the United Kingdom have a very high world ranking. A degree from the UK cannot be
rejected without a doubt by any employer around the world. British Education is quality education that
provides hands-on experience and skills apart from the theoretical syllabus that is relevant and much
sought-after by companies. The UK has a shorter duration of courses which helps reduce tuition costs,
and there is a wide choice for selecting the field of study and the institution.
The education system of Pakistan is very old and outdated, it focuses only on theoretical learning, and
there is no practical teaching experience. Studying in the UK would help me broaden my horizons and
give me International exposure.

that I can easily accommodate myself after getting visa. Normally, room rent for students in Cambridge is
around £ 120 to £250 per week.

university and very reasonable for me.
