Life as an International Postgraduate Student
Read Anamika's blog"When I moved to Birmingham, I was sceptical. Making the decision to do my Masters was a big one, and I was so nervous, I had a million things running through my mind. Would I be able to make friends? Would I even like the city? Would I understand my professors? Would I adjust to the weather? Would I like the food here? But all my doubts vanished as soon as I landed."
