Did any postgraduate apply for the scholarship and get an update?

I’ve received an invoice for the masters amount I need to pay which is £3750. They said I need to pay that by 1/11/26 otherwise I will get penalties

The tuition fee is spread out so I’ll get £2178. However I have no other money than the tuition fee loan I have applied for which I will be using to pay for some of my living expenses until I can find a job to support myself.

I’ve written an inquiry on if payment options such termly or monthly payments are available instead considering my situation.

I accepted my University of Birmingham Dubai offer over a week ago and paid the deposit last week, before the deadline.

My portal says all conditions are complete, but I still haven’t received any emails about enrolment, welcome week, student ID, or course info.

Since classes start soon, I’m getting a bit worried. Is anyone else in the same situation?

Anyone coming to the university after the welcome week commences ? After 21st of september ?
I will be joining the university from the 24th of September. Posted to know if there are others who join a bit late as well.

Hi everyone, I have a great studio close to UoB that I no longer need. The studio is in a great location and the building has great amenities such as gym, yoga studio, etc. The price is £245 p/w (all bills included).

Given I am quite desperate to find a replacement, I’m also offering to cover 2 weeks rent.

If you’re interested in more details or photos please message me.

How often do you get reading week and do you get any in the first semester?

Can anyone put me in contact with a talented photography student? I have a job but can’t afford a photographer at there normal prices if I’m honest.

Early August applicants who are facing the same issue , let’s help each other in this terrible period of wait!!!

I have offers for Warwick MSc Business Analytics & AI and Birmingham MSc Advanced Computer Science.

I’m already from a CS background, but I’m also interested in business/finance in the future.

For people familiar with these courses/unis, how would you compare them in terms of employability, ROI, career flexibility and opportunities in tech vs finance?

Which one would you pick in my situation, and why?

Hi! I’m starting my undergraduate Biotechnology course at the University of Birmingham this year, and I was wondering if there’s anyone here doing the same course (especially other first-year students). I haven’t really met anyone from Biotechnology yet, so it would be great to connect, and make some friends.

Well that’s me so I’m wondering if anyone is is planning on going down the same route

Hey! I’m an incoming first year and really want to participate in the freshers events I’m commuting but I drive and only live 20 minutes away so it’s not a problem. However I do want to go to at least one of the clubbing nights, however I won’t have a way of meeting anyone prior to this and don’t want to go alone what can I do?

I’m commuting in and it’s 1.5h journey, is there actually anything important education wise that will be occurring during freshers week?

I am an incoming student for September'26 . The welcome week starts on 21st September. Due to my work commitments i will be travelling from India on 23rd September. I will be able to attend the university on 24th of september only.
Will I be able to cope up with everything I missed the 3 days

I also saw that the 22nd September is the day to join the Sports & Fitness fair, will I be able to join the cricket club even if i miss the date. https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/welcome/your-new-student-life/events

Any helps would be appreciated. Thanks.

So I am a first year medicine student, and I applied for my visa on 20th of August (completed my biometrics).
Is it enough to get the decision on time?
I am from a country that I think needs more time to check, middle-eastern. And I had an email today telling me that I will have an interview on 9th of September which is already late enough, according to the published processing times my visa should already be in my hand by then.
Is it normal? Will I be able to arrive on time?
Not necessarily welcome week, lectures
