Hi, I’m a 3rd year international student coming to Strathclyde in January and wanted to know if there was a deposit to pay after you get approved for accommodation?

I’m a Canadian student coming on exchange in January. I was just applying for student housing and was wondering if there is some sort of student meal plan at the school. When I was in first year here in Canada we were able to purchase a semester long meal plan, and we could swipe our student cards for 3 meals a day. On the Strathclyde website I didn’t see anything like that so just wanted to check with students. If not, is cooking in the common kitchens the main thing people do? Definitely not looking to buy every meal

I am currently looking to move in with a friend and need someone to take over my tenancy at Strathclyde University Accommodations. It’s an all girls flat in the middle of the student village. The room comes with a hand-wash basin and is available to be taken over anytime starting November.

If anyone is interested or knows someone who might be, feel free to send me a message :)

Hi everyone! I’m a politics exchange student in 3rd year, coming in January to study for a semester. I was wondering if anyone had taken any 2nd/3rd year politics classes, and if there were any that stood out as easy. I plan to travel a lot as it’s a rare opportunity for me to do so (from Canada) so I’m hoping to find easier courses. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I applied for MSC advanced computer science Jan2025 intake I got my offer letter accepted it and paid the deposit amount.

I recently applied for an MSc in Business Analysis and Consulting and I'm both excited and a bit anxious about it. My background is not in tech, and I don’t have a strong foundation in math. Given that this is a practical course, I'm curious about a few things:

Course Content: What are the main topics covered in the curriculum? Are there specific areas where a strong analytical or technical background is particularly beneficial?

Difficulty Level: For those who have completed or are currently in the program, how challenging did you find the coursework? Was there anything specific that you found difficult due to a lack of math or technical experience?

Support Resources: Does the program offer any support for students who might struggle with quantitative aspects? Are there tutorials, workshops, or study groups available?

Career Outcomes: For those who have graduated from this program, how has it prepared you for the job market? What kinds of roles are accessible, and do you feel the lack of a tech background has limited your opportunities?

Advice for Success: Any tips on how to succeed in this program without a strong math or tech background?

Any insights or experiences you can share would be immensely helpful as I weigh my options. Thank you in advance for your help!

Hey I am browsing for my exhange university and I really like Strathclyde and the city of Glasglow, however I can only go during semester 2. The key dates for 2026 mention that the assesment period of semester 2 is 5 weeks which is a lot and it conflicts with my home university summer semester which I will be registering for. Does anyone of you know if exams could go until 22 may or if the 22 may date is for replacement exams and others.

I would be applying for Electrical Engineering if that helps.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I’m a new international student in Glasgow and have quite a few questions as I settle in. I’d really appreciate any advice or tips you might have. Here are a few things I’m particularly curious about:

1.	Areas to Avoid: Are there any neighborhoods or areas known for higher crime rates, such as drug-related issues, robberies,or red-light districts? I want to ensure I stay safe.

2.	Scams: Are there any common scams or things to watch out for as a newcomer?

3.	Shopping Tips: Where are the best places to shop for essentials like food, groceries, utilities, furniture, and kitchen supplies? Any hidden gems for bargains?

4.	Public Meet-Ups & Outdoor Activities: Are there any apps or communities for outdoor sports, running, or hiking where I can meet new people?

5.	Public Commute Apps & Discounts: What apps are best for public transport? I heard that student discounts are available—is that true? Also, any must-have apps for international students in general?

6.	Golf Commute & Stores: How is the public transportation if I want to travel to and from golf courses with my golf bag? Is it allowed? Also, are there any golf stores or studios known for great deals on new clubs? I’m planning to get fitted, so recommendations for pros or places with sweet deals would be amazing!

Any and all recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance, and looking forward to exploring Glasgow!

Cheers,

I just finished submitting my dissertation and will be graduating this November. As per the student visa rules, we’re allowed to work 20 hours per week during term time and 40 hours during vacations. Since I've submitted my dissertation, I’m not sure if I’m now allowed to work 40 hours per week before graduation or if I still need to stick to 20 hours. Has anyone been in a similar situation or knows the rules around this? Any advice would be really helpful!
