Which course should I apply for?
Based on our experience and according to our students from previous years, the student should always choose a course he can identify himself with. Forget any preconceptions you might have about choosing a course that may guarantee work placement, courses that are in the same area as your secondary education or courses which may bring substantial salaries.
1st A student chooses a course for the reason of "guaranteed work" is most times on the wrong track. As it is more than proven that all courses in the world may guarantee you a job as long as you are good at what you do and we are only good at something, when we love doing it. Furthermore anything that may be required on the job market at the moment you apply may not be so much needed in three year’s time. After the experience of studying abroad most students broaden their horizons and look for work all over the world.
2nd If you think you should only choose a course within your high school studies area you are also wrong. In the UK you may progress in any area of study you desire. There are no entry exams for the majority of the courses, what counts is you final grade average
So in order to find the course for you we suggest you reflect on your interests and ask yourself this question:
What job do I see myself doing for the next 30 years with a smile on my face?

Which Universities can I apply for?
As you can see on our course list there are several Universities we work directly with. Around 85% of our students tend to choose Partner Universities. The advantage of these Universities may be a smoother integration as there are already many of our students on Campus.
You can also apply to any other University other than those in direct partnership. In these cases the OK Student will also handle the entire process; however information regarding the city and the University may be limited.
Which courses can I apply for?
If you have not completed the 12th grade yet and you are under 18 you can only apply for a Foundation Degree or Access Course. These courses provide access to higher education allowing you at the end of the academic year to enter directly into the intended Higher Education course. This option is not avalable for all courses and some may not be supported. This means that the student may be responsible for the payment of the fees. However, on entering the first year of your undergraduate course you will have access to all grants and loans like any other student.
If you do not have the 12th grade and you are over 18 and have at least two to three years of professional experience, you may have access to a Foundation Degree or Access Course or the ability to enter directly into a course in Business or an area where you have enough professional experience in.
If you have the 12th grade, you can apply to any course described above or to any degree. If for any reason you do not have enough qualifications to enter directly into your desired course you will have access to the Foundation and Access Course.

What are the conditional and unconditional offer letters?
The conditional letter is issued by the University after your application. This is a conditional letter of acceptance which means that the University accepts your registration automatically once you have laid down the requirements for your course. These conditions may be:
- Finish high school with an average of X (X will be stated in your conditional letter)
- Take the IELTS Exam and achieve a grade of X (X given to each student individually depending on the University and the course).
The unconditional letter is the letter issued after submission of documentation demonstrating that the student has succeeded in obtaining the required conditions. This letter is to confirm that the student has been finally accepted into the University.
