Bournemouth University-Best for Animation, Visual Effects professional degrees

Had chosen this university as it was the only one offering MSc in clinical neuropsychology in the whole UK for January intake. The university ranking was too bad, including the reviews, compared to others. Additionally, it was cost-friendly for an average Indian middle-class family to afford. The university also offers a scholarship for international students who have secured more than 7.5 cgpa in their bachelor's degree....Read More

I only chose this university from the start since i had a plan that i had to follow for certifications outside of the University and Courses within the University. This is mainly because i wanted to ensure that there were opportunities that were nearby me in comparison to that which were far away from me during my time at UK. I had to endure a lot of part time work as well which was suitable. My main reason for the University was because it was linked up with a Football club which was on my line of work. It also provides me an opportunity to do other certification courses that are nearby to the place where i studied. Entry was Mainly IELTS score and a CAS letter. No challenges were faced by me during the admission process but the visa interview process was certainly a challenge as such. I managed to get into the september intake. Main reason was again my planning with in terms of certification courses around the university and in my line of work. The admission process took around 3 months in total from time of application to CAS letter and to acceptance letter , the document submition process. Then once i arrived at the university , i was again asked to showcase my documents and it took 1 day for that....Read More

The SOP (Statement of Purpose) should be very strong and the IELTS/PTE scores should also match the criteria for the university which you intend to apply to. I had applied to various universities in the UK out of which I had got unconditional offers from them. One university, the University of Hertfordshire, had rejected my application, as they had different eligibility criteria in it. The main criteria for me were the cost of living and the commuting facilities while studying. I felt Bournemouth was a very nice place and it was also accessible from the Heathrow Airport in London via road transportation. The first thing needed was the updated CAS letter (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies), which was done once the unconditional offer was accepted. In order to get the unconditional offer, school marksheets, degree certificates, SOP and english test scores should match the eligibility of the university you are applying to. I had taken PTE (Pearson Test of English) in online format and I had got a very good score which matched the criteria for the university I was applying to. Minimum score required is 6.5 overall with the same score in modules namely reading, writing, speaking and listening but it can be waived if the English marks in high school are first class. I took the January intake and it was useful, as I was able to complete the course timely during the COVID-19 lockdown. During that point of time, I had finished my assessments and I only had to complete my thesis and submit it. The admission process was not very long; I submitted the necessary documents for it and I received the unconditional offer, which allowed me to prepare for the student visa process....Read More

This was one of the Top Most colleges in the U.K. at that time providing Animation, Visual Fx and Gaming Tech courses. The course was very competitive and the focus was on a lot of practical experience with the latest tools and tech. My scores were as follows: IELTS - 7.5; TOEFL - 781/900...Read More

I applied to 6-7 colleges in the UK Northumbria, shortlisted (conditional offer) Westminster, shortlisted Teesside, shortlisted Anglia Ruskin, shortlisted Bournemouth, admitted East London, rejected Hertfordshire, rejected I only received confirmed admission from Bournemouth University. I was rejected by Hertfordshire and East London I was probably rejected because my portfolio hasn't met the expectations for the particular courses. Bournemouth University is ranked in the top 5 as the best university for Computer Animation and VFX (in the UK); hence, i decided to choose them. I was given a conditional offer after i submitted my predicted marksheet, IELTS, CAS letter and Letter of Recommendation, then I was given an unconditional offer after I got my results. IELTS was considered for all the universities, with 7 being the minimum overall score in most of them I went through an agency that helped me with the entire process free of charge, which was a great help, especially with applications and visas. I applied for the September intake, as that was the only intake for my course at that moment The admission process did take quite a lot of time, as I was waiting for my results and that was delayed because of corona. I had to wait nearly a whole month for my results and then for the CAS. I was able to finish the process sometime in August last week or the first week of September....Read More
