Student life
Studying abroad is not just about gaining qualifications. Student life gives you a unique opportunity to
broaden your experiences as well as your mind.
A vibrant social life is very much part of the UK student experience. Most universities are affiliated to
the National Union of Students and offer subsidised bars, as well as the chance to create or join interest
or sport clubs. International students often form societies offering food, films and speakers relating to
their national or cultural backgrounds.
Long vacations, budget fares and student discounts combine to make student travel an opportunity not to be
missed. The UK has an outstanding array of hip cities and natural landscapes, so whatever your preference,
go visit it! And with continental Europe on your doorstep, you'll never be short of a fresh destination.
