Why Study in the UK?
Being home to four beautiful and liveable countries – England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, the UK is one of the most popular international study destinations for Malaysian students.
The advantages of studying in the UK are limitless as it is undoubtedly one of the top destinations to study abroad. Reportedly, 90 UK universities have been ranked in the QS World University Rankings 2021. So for such a small landmass, the UK certainly has a strong concentration of university-level education.
The Universities in the UK provide fantastic benefits to students coming beyond borders. The Quality Assurance Agency (QAA), an independent body functions exclusively to set, monitor, and safeguard the quality of higher education in the UK. Hence, without a doubt, students in UK universities will benefit from cutting-edge infrastructure, research laboratories, better employability, and guidance to prepare them for a successful career.
If you study in the UK, be it the foundation, college, undergraduate, or postgraduate level, you will experience a vibrant multicultural life, from music, festivals, arts, food, football matches, ancient castles to modern cities along with quality education. Not just that, the UK can be your gateway to Europe, where another 40 countries await you.
In addition, with the new Graduate Route, international students who study in the UK will be able to stay in the UK and work or look for work, at any skill level for two years after graduation. From summer 2021, the Graduate Route is available to international students who successfully complete their degree at undergraduate level or above at a UK Higher Education Provider with a track record of compliance.
