 Wahoo, thanks.  You're the best. :)  

 Another thing: I'm not sure if you'd know but, in Canada, when it comes to studying Psychology we can take either the Arts route or the Science route.  

 How is it in England?


I've never heard of a BA in Psychology in England, I think it is generally regarded as a science, if a social science.  

although, I doubt there's much funding for psychology students tbh.

(btw, PP is right about LSE. It's pretty much the tip-top)


So you think I would have a much better chance at financial aid studying business?

some universities seem to award generic scholarships for internationals (UCL and Bristol are two I've found), but subject-specfic - I think you're much more likely to find business scholarships than psychology. psychology is very over-subscribed here.

this is partly my conjecture, but I do think that you'll be more likely to find business funding.

it's very vague to say so though, like someone said before, it's not cut and dry. I think you'll have to start looking more generally at universities, and then you can narrow it down based on financial aid.

what sort of uni do you want to go to? city/campus/london?

I have absolutely no idea.  I really should do some research on English universities.

just remember that you need to apply about a year before you plan to start if you're applying to oxford or cambridge.

Uni fee's are roughly £3145 a year
Then theres accomodation and living costs on top of that

There arnt really scholarships over in this country but there is quite a good student loan system.. Not sure how it works for students from overseas


Thats for home students, it's round about the 11,000 mark for international. Which taking into account the exchange rate is still probably cheaper than a top rate Uni in the USA

i think you need to realise that only your own country will actually want to make sure you get an education  

 being able to dash off to england for 3 years is a privelage and you might just need to forget about it if you're not from a wealthy family


It's only 3 years if you do a crap course here.

4 years for real courses.


It's 3 years for most courses actually...unless you are in Scotland.
