Hello


Good to see that you are considering to study in the UK, something related to accounts.

1. Study options: You can study any course related to accounts in Luton. The common courses that you are eligible to apply in accounts are:
  • MSc Accounts
  • MSc Accounts and finance
  • MBA with accounts
  • ACCA - Professional certification
I understand you are already an MBA degree holder but there is no harm to study an another MBA. I have plenty of friends who have done their second MBA abroad apart from doing their first MBA degree in India. Otherwise you can also do a Masters or ACCA. Any degree from a UK Institution will keep you high in searching for jobs. While doing a Masters, you can do an internship and this will keep you upfront to being selected for full time jobs soon after your graduation. If I were you, I would either go for an MSc Accounts or an ACCA certification. As you are in Luton, you can find colleges that support ACCA training and offer weekly classes.

2. University options: As you are in Luton, you have only one option and that is to study at the University of Bedfordshire. This is the only university based in Luton. However if you want to move else where to study at other reputed universities, then you might think of other schools in and around London. So it is a wise decision to take part in ACCA certification in London or neighbouring cities. Most of these classes are held on weekends and you can travel from Luton only on the weekends to attend such classes. Otherwise choose to study at University of Bedfordshire which is also pretty good.

3. Visa status and tuition fee status:You have stated on your query that you are on a spouse visa. So that is a dependent visa. May I know how long have you been there in the UK? If you have lived there for more than three years on a spouse visa then you are eligible to study at any UK university as a home student rather than an international student. As a home student you will only pay around 3000-4000 pounds as tuition fee for a year where as an international student will pay between 12000-15000 or even more depending on the university for a one year tuition fee. If you have been there in the UK for at least three years, please claim to pay fees at the home status and this will help you save close to 8-10lakh in Indian money. I have friends who were unaware of this and ended up paying high fees, I am glad I could inform this to you today.

4. IELTS test: Similarly, if you have lived in the UK for less than 3 years, then you should appear for the IELTS test. You can visit on the website to register for the test at your desired time, www.ielts.org Once you register, they will send you free preparing materials for the exam. You have to get a minimum of 6.0 overall for studying at Bedfordshire. IELTS score is mandatory while you are submitting your study application.

So choose an ideal course among the ones that I have indicated above and submit an application before 1st July2014. This way you can enrol in your accounts course from September 2014 itself. My best wishes to you for your studies. If you require any information further, please contact us and we are happy to help. Good luck.
