Anyone at college?

I was wondering if anyone on the forums has successfully, and recently, moved to the UK on a student visa tier 4, and attended a college for 1 or 2 year course.

I just need some stories, and I have some questions, as it seems that most people on student visas are doing post grad or undergrad.

Thank you.

Well I came to the UK in October 2009 to do my undergraduate and this coming year will be my last I'm in the process of getting Bulgarian citizenship so I can stay in the UK for a couple more years after I graduate. You won't find them on this forum, but there are a lot of students who go to the UK for studying English.

Though it seems like going school in the UK is a far away thing, however I've noticed that a lot more US students are coming over here in recent years. I've had a loads of ups and downs but I don't regret coming here. Life is far from perfect but I'm more adjusted to life in the UK than I was my first year. If you have any questions, feel free to pm me

There was one younger poster on here a few months ago who was trying to get to college (not undergrad) but she was having trouble with funding. I'm not sure if funding is different for colleges or why she couldn't get a federal loan. You'd have to look into that.

Have you looked into starting from foundation year (1 year at a university) and then plunging into your degree? Foundation year catches you up to all the things required of you in uni. It's like college but accelerated. It's not intimidating at all. I got a 1st average that year so it's not hard either (hehe does that mean I can say I got all A's on my "A levels"?  ). Anyways the reason why I'm suggesting this is because 1) It's easy to get in. 2) If you pass you go straight into uni with a course of your choosing from a list they give you, 3) you get federal loan funding for it just like you do for undergrad.
