How do I know if choosing UKEC is right for me?

With a high success rate, our team of Counsellors are specially trained and have vast experience in international student support.

We guide you every step of the way to help you make the right choice, and that you have the right documents needed to apply.

Whether you want to study in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland or Australia we are dedicated to supporting you into choosing the right course and university.

Our counsellors provide a unique 1-1 service (either face to face at one of our 14 branches, or via video call), ensuring you have everything you need and are prepared to make that submission!

What is the difference between applying myself and using UKEC?

We find that many students find the application process can be quite challenging and overwhelming.

Students must be prepared for personal statements, entry requirements, accommodation, Visa, scholarships, deadlines and much more.

With so many things to consider, it is important that you have a professional on side to ensure that your application is fully complete, accurate and ready to go!

Futhermore, UKEC has strong partnerships with universities which may mean we can access scholarships not available to students directly.

What if I am unsure what I want to study?

That is OK. We understand and we are here to help!

We always start with a free ‘discovery session’. This exercise helps us to understand your personal situation and asks questions about the type of career you would like to pursue.
Your counsellor will recommend suitable courses and  universities to you and give you more information about  international student life at those universities.

We also invite you to bring along a partner, parent, or friend. This is a life-changing decision, and one that is often made easier with moral support!
