Choosing to study at the University of Nottingham was the best decision I ever made. Being awarded the Developing Solutions Scholarship has provided me with the opportunity to learn the most up-to-date skills at a world class facility under expert supervision. I have never met a more enthusiastic group of people than my course lecturers!

My love for this university is not only based on its academic profile; Nottingham caters to every leisure activity possible through its diverse student societies. I am having a wonderful time being a member of three ensembles in the Music Society (Mussoc) and can you imagine that there is even a Quidditch and Harry Potter Society? I would recommend that all international students participate in a few of these groups because it is a great way to make new friends who share your interests. So if you are looking for a well-balanced, world renowned university, Nottingham is the right place for you.
