Over 2000 visitors visited the exhibition, taking the opportunity to speak to the representatives from the institutions, who were on hand to offer advice to students on a wide range of topics, including top concerns such as courses, fees and accommodation – every aspect of studying in the UK.The exhibition serves as a one-stop-shop for prospective UK scholars and their families.

Also present were experts from the Ministry of Education, including the Scholarship and National Accreditation Council, who provided guidance on procedures for applying for scholarships.

Seminars were held concurrently with the exhibition, enabling participants to drop in on in-depth presentations from different institutions, on “How to write a great personal statement,” “Choosing your course” and “Studying Law in the UK.”

British High Commissioner, David Campbell, said that the Education UK exhibition was always a highly anticipated event. “The institutions represented cover the length and breadth of the UK, so it gives students an opportunity to get expert advice on the huge range of courses available, and also get help with the important decision on where best to study.”
