Students are generally expected to attend classes 2-3 days a week.

**Part-Time Jobs: **You can find part-time jobs outside of the university and you don't need to learn British slang to get one.

Passing your exams is crucial: You are given 12 months to complete your Masters program. If you fail your exams and can't pass within an additional four months, you will need to return to India.

Laptops are recommended: While not mandatory, a laptop is recommended for your studies.
