    I'm an international student and the course that I applied for is Computer Science (BSc.G400). So, please let me know which uni would be the best for my course.

    I think if you're an international student, you might want to go with Manchester or Nottingham because in Scotland the degree is 4 years long compared to 3 in England (so you could save around £15,000!).

    If you've saved up enough for a 4 year degree, then go with Edinburgh/Glasgow because they're incredible institutions

    They're all very good universities, and I think you'd be happy whichever one you went to.
