1) In comparison to the US, Canada and Australia; UK is the easiest country to get University admission and procure Visa.
2)
A Masters Degree in the UK is quicker or faster to get - it is 1 year
while those of US, Canada and Australia are often over 1 year.
3)
Make sure you have money for at least 1 year tuition fee. Although you
will be allowed to do 20 hours of work per week, the money you will make
from this will only take care of your expenses or part of it. If you
rely on it to pay first year tuition, it may not work. You can get
subsequent session’s tuition fee or part of it by working hard during
the summer holidays when you are allowed to work full time.
4)
You are expected to return back to your country after completing your
studies, except you are offered a job by a UK employer. This is very
difficult to get because there are laws tying the hands of the employers
from employing non EU immigrants. If you must come, never resign your
job in Nigeria if you have one.
5) Having an additional skill
like hair barbing, hair weaving for girls, web design, web marketing,
etc may put some extra money into your pocket if you know how to market
yourself but this is not guaranteed.
In conclusion, conduct an
extensive research on what to expect academically, financially and
generally before taking the step. This will enable you to hit the ground
running and know what to do after you finish your studies.
