Admission Process

You should begin your application procedure at least a year before you want to study in the United Kingdom. You’ll have plenty of time to complete the admission exams and application procedures that UK institutions need. Universities are chosen based on a number of criteria, and your ultimate decision is dependent on your degree of comfort. In general, each country has its own ranking system that identifies the best institutions in each field. Rankings are simply one of the factors to consider when deciding whether or not to apply to a specific university. Rather, rely on data from former and present students. Remember that no matter which country you apply to, you must follow all of the country’s rules and regulations, as well as all of the application requirements.

Undergraduate students simply need to take the IELTS or TOEFL exam. Universities in the United Kingdom do not require the SAT or ACT. Only the IELTS or TOEFL is required for graduate students. There are certain exceptions, such as elite MBA programs that demand GMAT scores. Similarly, candidates to the London School of Economics may be required to take the GRE. Before you apply, you should check with each university to see what their admission criteria are.
