My facts were right.  

Everyone pays the £3145 fee a year (aprox) and overseas studnets can get the Student loans!


No, overseas students pay much more. For example this is the fee for Nottingham University students.

Faculties   Cost (per year)

Arts, Law and Social Sciences£10,200
Science and Engineering£13,500
Medicine£14,230 - £24,500
Veterinary Medicine and Surgery£18,430

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

Lmao, aw really?

unis rely on internationals to make dosh, because they can charge the hell out of them without the cap on fees that they have for home/EU students. basically, the only scholarships you're going to get are going to be subject-specific and no university in this whole sodding country gives out arts scholarships.  

I'm a home student, and nowhere I applied had scholarships available for my subject (english lit). basically, because we're useless and expendable.  

unless you're outstanding in academics (which you may well be!), I mean really outstanding - I think you'll struggle to find funding.

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

4 years for real courses.

How do you define really outstanding in academics - percentage wise?

I have a pretty high academic standard as well as many extra curricular activities and such.

Don't be so ignorant. In fact most Bachelors courses are 3 years, Masters are usually 4. You can get 4 year courses with one year abroad or in industry.

I'll be doing Biochemistry for three years from september. Any asshole that tells me that it's not a 'real' course can get lost.

Most of us over here get bursaries (well those of us willing to look) Mine will be paid for by the army provided I pass AOSB in september. I'll also get paid while I'm there for doing UOTC.

that would really depend on which university you went to. competition at higher education level in england is pretty fierce everywhere though.

what are you looking to apply for, and where?

Lol I know whatr you mean, but most "artsy" courses are only 3 years. It's job specific courses mainly. Ie. Biochem is 3 years, biochem engineering is 4.

I didn't really mean crap I meant non job specific. I'm tired and was too lazy to type it.

I am not 100% sure of what I want to apply for but it'll probably be business - maybe psychology.  But I do phenomenal in business courses.  

I'm not sure where I would want to apply exactly - to a pretty good school though.

Business is good everywhere but LSE would be my recomendation. Espescially for overseas students.

oh, you're doing business! oh, ok, that's a BSc, so you are more likely to get funding in this area. If you were doing an arts subject, like english lit or history of art - you'd be buggered.

really you should shop around unis with funding in mind. I just looked at my uni website, and Manchester Business School doesn't offer any scholarships, but Warwick Business School does.

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)
