Um. It's great that none of you like Indians. Well, can't say anything to that.

To be honest i don't really care. The point is that we subsidise these university places with our tax, and you international guys just take OUR places!

Why can't you stay in your country and study there? I'm sure you can get a good, if not a great education back in India

Why do you have to come here and study and then STEAL our jobs!! Do you know how much that pisses us off! If your gonna study here, atleast have the decency to go back and work in your country.


Are you a prospective Economics student.
haha this cheered me up, love a good debate! btw guys just finished a new website, check it out in my sig.

Seems to me that this year is all about get as many international students as you can... the unis will need money


Tell me about my international friend who is Korean is doing his A levels here he got BBBD in AS and has applied to manchester uni city bristol durham and nottingham all for business management i know its not economics but they all require AAB normally for home student. He has offers from city AAB bristol AAB and Durham and Nottingham for ABB which is a bargain all because he is international. While we pay taxes and bust our backsides off at college and still face a major risk for rejection :frown:.

I dislike indians as well though, regardless of nationality. I think it's the smell.


Dude do you have any frigging idea how offensive that was?
To make such a degrading generalization based on some *******s who don't care about personal hygiene. Believe me, the Indians you'll encounter at university will not be like that.
economics - that is, economics - applicants raging about skilled immigrants, priceless

Doesn't even matter whether or not they're particularly skilled. The way some arguments are being put forth are not even arguments - merely ridiculous statements being thrown out there.

I am kind of shocked that they are Economics applicants even at school to be honest.

Hey, some of my friends are in the same position as you, from what they've told me about their fees, is that they have to pay the international rate at all Uni's. I don't think home fees are applicable unless you have a British or a EU passport.. (I'm not sure about the EU bit :confused: so don't quote me on it!)
