My overall experience at this University was really great. I am very grateful for everything that I was able to learn here. The syllabus for all the subjects was completely up-to-date which made us ahead of everyone else. The teachers were always motivated to teach new things that are happening in the university. The University supports the students financially as well. Overall- Yes, I would absolutely recommend this University in the UK!

Course Curriculum

9

My syllabus was completely up to date. They keep holding seminars and sessions for latest inventions in technology including AI as well. The syllabus was completely relevant with my course. I was given a residential trip experience where we were taken to Liverpool for a week. This experience was the best thing about Middlesex University for me (personally), since I gained too much knowledge and experience during this whole trip which had been very carefully planned by my respected professor.

Faculty

9

We used to have 70-80 students in our class. Faculty to student ratio was perfect since for the workshops/seminars, the class used to get divided into parts to maintain the ratio. The teachers were very well versed, especially in their respective subjects. Around 90% of the professors were easily approachable. They are very helpful and kind. Mr. Thomas and Mr. Sukhbinder had left an incredible impact on me and I am very grateful for both of them.

Campus Life

9

The campus life is absolutely perfect. Infrastructure is top-notch. Nothing to complain about. They maintain it really well. Perfect library with plenty of books. They even had a tech lab where students can use MACs as well. Free Wifi available throughout the campus. Too many extracurricular events including Pyjama night, teacher-student social events, dj night, cultural events as well, like bhangra night and Garba night.

Placement

8

Big companies, like Wamo, had also visited our university during placements. Some students really got great jobs with great pay. I do not know the median salary as I didn’t ask anyone personally but from what I heard, everyone was satisfied.

Accommodation

Off Campus
9

I would suggest to go for University Accommodation because of the proximity to the university and the safety as well. Also, there would be no additional utility charges which makes it easier. Otherwise, some student accommodations like Scape, Wembley is another good option. Close-by, great infrastructure, great crowd from different universities, all bills included and safe as well.

Exams

- Admission based on merit: BBA (G) 95.7% ; - 94% in CBSE 12th boards, 85% in English (Hence, no IELTS) ; 9.8 CGPA in CBSE 10th Boards - Received 2000 pounds merit scholarship as well. - I had to submit a Statement of Purpose (SoP) where I had to describe what motivated me to pursue this specific course from this specific university and the reason I chose UK for my masters. I also attached a couple of LORs received from my undergrad professors describing my willingness and potential to pursue this course. - Interview round: Yes, I had total 2 interviews. First interview was a telephonic interview where I was asked about my whereabouts and everything that I had mentioned in the SOP. It felt like the purpose was to confirm my identity, and my willingness for this education, as well as basic knowledge about the UK. This interview had been taken by an Indian regional manager of Middlesex University in India. The second interview was taken by staff at Middlesex University, London itself. It was a video call. This time they asked me questions related to the university and my course. The purpose for this interview was to examine if I really am interested in the course and college or not, since they even asked what all subjects are there in my syllabus and if I know what all facilities, subjects, residential trips, etc does the university provide.

Fees

16800 pounds was my fee as an international student, out of which 2000 pounds was reduced as scholarship.

Scholarship

Yes, I got a scholarship of 2000 pounds under the scholarship titled “International Merit Award”. I just had to submit all my marksheets and transcripts since 10th standard.
