A satellite campus is a branch of a university located in a different country, state or area from where the main campus of the institution is situated.

I recently graduated from Purdue University in the US and found a job at a start-up company. This feels like a dream for a student from a small village in Uttar Pradesh in northern India.

My father is a farmer, and my mother is a homemaker; our family’s annual income has always been less than $1,300. With limited means, my family struggled to support my education. I was 12 years old when I passed the entrance exam for VidyaGyan, a leadership academy in rural Uttar Pradesh founded by the Shiv Nadar Foundation.

With a range of world-leading universities to choose from, lots of courses taught in English and a comparatively low cost of studying, it’s easy to see why so many international students want to study abroad in the Netherlands.

If you’re planning on studying abroad in the Netherlands, one of the most important things to consider is how you will fund your studies. Luckily, the Netherlands has a range of scholarship opportunities that could help you fund part or all of your studies.

I’ve worked with many international students over the years, helping them to develop career plans, research career sectors and take control of their career future. An international education can open many opportunities, but you need to make the most of the experience to really benefit. 

Ensuring that you start to think about your career from the very beginning of the time you’re at university will ensure that you maximise all the opportunities available to you.

Middlesex University. We offer qualifications underpinned by the British education system, which are validated and quality assured to the same standards as those offered in the UK. 

Our application process is smooth and straightforward, and our admissions process aims to admit students who demonstrate potential to complete their chosen programme of study successfully. 

If you are studying in the US, it is possible to move from one university to another. This process is called “transferring”.

You can transfer from a community college to a four-year institution, or you can transfer from one university to another. If you’re transferring from a community college to a university, you will start at the university as a junior for the final two years of your bachelor’s degree.

I was drawn to the US because of the flexible curricula. With interests in geography and environmental science, I wanted to explore my preferences at my own pace.

A lot of myths and misconceptions surround clearing, perhaps more than ever for 2021 entry. The pandemic has brought challenges but also opportunities, and it is important to remember that while everything may seem different, the process of applying via clearing is broadly the same.

The main barrier I found when applying to an international university was not the application itself or obtaining a study permit, but the worry over how I would go from using my native language, Portuguese, to being taught in my second language, English.

I knew English from high school, but I questioned whether it would be sufficient at university.
