International students play a huge part at The University of Manchester – our student population hails from 160 countries. The welcoming, accessible and multicultural environment that is the city of Manchester provides the ideal base for your time studying in the UK. Choose Manchester and you’ll put yourself ahead of the competition when the time comes to begin your career. With an award-winning careers service and courses built with your employability in mind, it’s no surprise that 94% of our graduates go straight into jobs or further study.

If you're interested in starting a business in the UK, the Masood Entrepreneurship Centre offers resources and support for student-led start-ups. We’re part of the prestigious Russell Group of universities and our research and teaching quality is recognised across the globe, but our support for international students is just as important to us. We’ll help you at all stages, from before you apply to when you arrive – and you’ll be supported at all times while you’re here.

We also encourage you to become the best you can be by participating in Stellify – a journey through Manchester’s most transformational experiences, giving you a unique opportunity to experience true personal and professional growth during your time with us. We’ll give you an experience that will prepare you for a lifetime of achievement.
