University of Science and Technology Manchester (UMIST)

Life on the campus is easier when you first arrive in a country you don't know, lots of activities are organised by the hall of residence and this allows you to meet new people and usually to make good friends for the rest of the year.

Good location and a lot of international students, but if you meet local people it is just by mistake.

Food in england is very expensive if you want to eat properly so it is more expensive than in France. My phone bills were not so expensive because my friends and my familly phoned my back (4 times less expensive when you phone from France to England than from England to France). I spent more for the night life because I went out much more, but for the same amount of money you can drink much more in England. In Manchester night Clubs are not to expensive £4, so it is very tempting. Paris-Manchester with airfrance cost you FF1280 or £125, so I had the same budget than last year I just had to manage it.

u will miss your old life and u cant turn back after u decide on moving overseas

very because empoyees love to recruit from it in the UK and the uni is very recognized in the UK

there were no surprises...

It is a good university, and Manchester is dominated by students, so there is a fantastic nightlife. The environment, though, is not that appealing.
