Employers worldwide respect Wales for its 12 fantastic academic institutions, which deliver more than 5,600 courses to over 100,000 students. The universities boast a significant number of 4* rated departments, which are the highest ratings you can achieve and demonstrate the international standing of academic staff and their work.
Many campuses are based within short distance of areas notable for their beauty, and many surveys have shown that students in Wales consistently enjoy a better quality of life than other students across the UK.
Various funding and scholarship options are available to international students who wish to study in Wales. Scholarships varying between £1,000 and £5,000 are available across a broad range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses, including Business, Computer Science, and Engineering.
Wales might be small compared to its bigger neighbours, England and Scotland, but it more than makes up for this fact by offering scenic landscapes with plenty to do and cities with much to offer. Mountains, hills, and rivers offer plenty of inspiration for art students, while places such as Cardiff offer exciting big-city thrills.
Over 8,000 international students call Wales home each year, benefiting from a warm welcome and a strong sense of community.
I sincerely thank SI-UK for getting me accepted to UCL. The MSc in Urban Development and Planning is extremely competitive, but the right guidance provided by SI-UK made my dream of studying at University College London a reality. The services were exceptional from beginning to end.
