Northumbria student here: ask me anything!

Hi, I'm applying for a 2 years master in business, with an internship placement in year 2 at the school's clinic. Do you have any information about that internship? And how is the part-time jobs opportunities for international students there? Thanks for answering

Hey Wincist, which country are you from? I wouldn't exactly spend an extra 2k for an internship year, which to be honest you'll have to source yourself. You don't need to pay an extra 2k to get an internship, my advice is to go with the internship option end of year $596. I personally think unis that charge you for an internship are absolute scams. Also, 9/10 times, you'll end up interning at an SME where you'll be fetching coffee and photocopying.

Hi I'm from Vietnam I'm not very clear about the internship option end of year you mentioned, could you tell me more about it ? Thanks

Well if you don't opt for the 1 year internship thing (which is a waste of money) you can opt to do an internship at the end of your course instead which will only be about 500 pounds. Or, better still you could find an internship yourself instead of paying the uni to do it for you but they don't actually do anything other than help you write your cv and send it out to companies, which is what anyone with an internet connection can do.

As for part time job opportunities, I don't know if you're based in the Newcastle or London campus but the latter will definitely have more options.

what course are you doing?

what made you choose northumbria?

did you have a part time job before you started placement?

how far did you live away from northumbria before you started going to uni there?

Hi there, when do you get a moving in date? do they email you? I did a BTEC course at college so I have no exams to do. I already have my grade or is it after all exams?
