In order to explore the international student life, we created
00:04 - 00:06
a questionnaire which gave us many answers to all off
00:06 - 00:08
the topics we could explore within the subject.
00:09 - 00:12
The following results are amazed of opinions and experiences of
00:12 - 00:15
more than 20 international students for from different levels currently
00:15 - 00:21
studying at the University of First Course and University related
00:22 - 00:26
questions. The first question in one of the most important
00:26 - 00:27
ones was the following.
00:28 - 00:29
How did you find University of Gloucestershire?
00:30 - 00:33
A majority of students found it on the Internet, but
00:33 - 00:35
friends and family comes in second place in third place.
00:36 - 00:37
We have the Yukos, a system which has been proven
00:38 - 00:39
to be one of the best systems to guide international
00:40 - 00:41
students in their application process.
00:44 - 00:48
Most courses are available in their home countries, which indicates
00:48 - 00:51
in most cases international students are not only interested in
00:51 - 00:53
the course, but also in the life experience.
00:56 - 00:59
On the most popular reason for international students to study
00:59 - 01:02
in the United Kingdom is cultural, which involves learning language,
01:03 - 01:04
new environment, etcetera.
01:08 - 01:11
The application process was rated seven in difficulty for the
01:11 - 01:13
majority, but for some others it was well guided and
01:14 - 01:25
they rated it a form learning and studying in a
01:25 - 01:28
new language is one of the most challenging changes in
01:28 - 01:29
the life of an international student.
01:30 - 01:33
Nevertheless, international students in pretty confident with their English level
01:34 - 01:36
as the rating, is above a five.
01:36 - 01:41
In most cases, most students think the university offers the
01:42 - 01:46
same opportunities toe all students, but a 21.7% don't agree.
01:50 - 01:53
Many examples of the support provided by the union were
01:53 - 01:54
brought up in this question.
01:54 - 01:57
The International Cafe was the most popular one, as it's
01:57 - 02:00
a space for international students to socialize and make new
02:00 - 02:02
friends at the chaplain of Francis Close Hall.
02:03 - 02:05
In addition, such a big change in the student's life
02:05 - 02:08
might create in securities stress on dhe.
02:08 - 02:11
That's why the mental health support or even activities such
02:11 - 02:13
as the dog walk are so important.
02:16 - 02:19
Most students voted to difficulty to fit into the human
02:20 - 02:23
environment off university with the five, which is in the
02:23 - 02:26
middle, indicating that with a little effort, it's easy enough
02:26 - 02:28
to fit but also complicated if you don't have many
02:28 - 02:29
social skills.
02:43 - 02:50

02:50 - 02:53
globalization, which is why we asked about their trip to

For many students in the European Union, it was easy
02:57 - 02:59

03:13 - 03:16
travel with their own families on to be able to
03:16 - 03:17
study in the UK in the first place.
03:22 - 03:26
