Student Advisor Posts:  written by our Student Advising team based on their own experiences studying in the UK and and common questions we've received over the years while woking with students. Topics cover everything from application support to our best travel hacks to some of our favourite parts of living in the UK as a student. 
 

Student Ambassador Posts:  written by students who worked with an Across the Pond advisor to apply to the UK and share their experiences of arriving, adjusting to life in the UK, and other highlights from their first year abroad.
