heard about racism and new xenophobic policies (in the name of safety) of uk like non-british nationals have to carry identity card always.

sarious answers invited from indians only as they can understand my dilema better.

Answer 1

I am an Indian student in UK. So far I have not faced any kind of discrimination in this country. There is no need for you to carry any kind of indentity proof all the time. I am based in Scotland and have found that the people here are very friendly. Talking to people here will make things easy for you. Do no hesitate to ask for help from anyone whenever you need it.

What you must however worry about is the cost of living which is extremely high. Make sure that you have your finances worked out before you travel to Britain. If you have any friends anywhere in this country then make sure that you stay in touch with them. They can be of great help.

Answer 2

in this big world if you have confident then you should not worry about that. yes communication wise london is very fast other than any uk cities. first of all be always positive about uk. i am telling because i came from a middleclass family to study in uk. i did that and i got my study complete. it is sure you may face some job problem here for first time. but british nationals will not bother what u r coming for? you respect them . they will respect you.

Answer 3

I think....i have provided enough information for your first question before...and for the cost of living in Manchester or any major cities in UK is normally little bit high than the normal places or towns...

Manchester City...Cost of living is MODERATE and not as much as London City.....

1) Shared Accommodation with other university students in a private houses.....GBP 200 to GBP 300 per month including all Bills(Gas/Electric/Water/Internet)....Bu... sometimes...it also depends upon the house landlord...Cost may be PLUS or MINUS ...GBP20 - 40/per month.....

2) Food Bills...Average....GBP20 - 50 per month

3) Mobile Bill...Average...GBP 15...Min....
