Applications to universities in the UK

Universities in the UK have an international reputation of excellence, with many frequently ranked among the very top universities in the world, notably University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, and London School of Economics.

There are five main course types available at UK universities

Students studying in the UK usually begin higher education with an undergraduate (Bachelor’s) degree at the age of 18. Bachelor’s degrees typically last three years, although courses in Scotland are usually a year longer.

For some subjects you can enrol on an undergraduate degree that leads directly on to a master’s program – usually totaling four years. Some UK universities also offer fast-track undergraduate courses which can be completed in as little as two years. Master’s programs usually last one year and Doctorates (PhDs) at least three.

Universities in the UK are usually very accommodating to international students. Some have courses are specially designed or adapted to be more accessible for students from other countries studying in the UK.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US

I am writing to thank you for helping to organise the tuition for Quincy. My wife and I are indeed happy with the arrangements. Quincy found the tuitions helpful and is making progress at school.

Mr Kwok, Parent of Ronson
My homestay was so kind that I was very sad to leave the family after a whole year of staying with them.

Dominic, Notre Dame Catholic Sixth Form College
If I were a parent living abroad and had a child or children in a boarding school in this country, I should have peace of mind if I knew that Study Links were my child(ren)’s Guardian.

Headmaster, Rishworth School
I have very much enjoyed my association with Study Links and have found the office staff to be friendly, approachable, informative and efficient; I know from my experience as a Housemistress that many girls have also benefitted from and enjoyed the kindness and hospitality of Study Links staff and homestay families.

Director of Pastoral Care, Queen Margaret’s School
