The SI-UK University Fair is an outstanding opportunity for Indian students to meet representatives from UK universities, colleges, boarding schools, summer schools and language schools in one place.
At the Fair, Indian students can speak to UK representatives directly by visiting universities’ booths. The Fairs are focused on providing study options in the UK, where you can talk in person with delegates from leading UK universities, collect their brochures, and submit your application or evaluate your profile.

12 UK University Fair Tips for Indian Students
1. View information on attending universities
Use the SI-UK fair site to determine which universities are attending before the event. You can also view more information on university rankings, courses, and scholarships here.
2. Check the schedule
Check the final schedule before the event to ensure you don’t miss any presentations or talks.
3. Learn about your study options
Spend quality time researching your study options based on your eligibility. It will bring immense benefit to get specialist knowledge rather than the information you can check online. There are over 65,000 courses in the SI-UK database, so have a search and see what you might like to study!
4. Decide which universities to meet
Now you know who is attending, you must decide who to meet. Some booths will be busier than others, and there will not be enough time for everyone to see each other!
5. Make a list of your questions
Be proactive and research thoroughly. Write down five major key points based on the crucial issues for you. You can ask specific questions about your needs and interest in course structure, admission requirements, tuition fee and application deadlines. Remember, representatives will have limited minutes to speak to you.
6. Make sure you know how to get there
Reach the venue in good time, planning ahead what modes of travel you will be taking.
7. Stay open to suggestions
You must be focused and fully prepared to ask your specific questions. Do remain open-minded to new study options, possibilities, or scholarships you might not have previously known.
8. Be transparent with representatives
The attending universities are keen to recruit talented students, and they might have something to offer you. It can be bursaries or scholarships. Let the representatives know your financial needs, too, so they can guide you in the right direction.
9. Be confident
Get yourself ready as if to face an interview. You should make an impression on the delegates. So, duly think about your dress choice, appearance, and mannerisms.
10. Bring guests
The SI-UK Fair is free, and we encourage bringing guests along. From asking the right questions to sharing accommodation in the UK, your guest can help you recall and sort the information after the Fair.
11. Collect brochures
Gather brochures, business cards and other materials at the booth and keep them safe until your application process starts.

I sincerely thank SI-UK for getting me accepted to UCL. The MSc in Urban Development and Planning is extremely competitive, but the right guidance provided by SI-UK made my dream of studying at University College London a reality. The services were exceptional from beginning to end.
