I am very pleased with the outstanding services and support offered by SAKUN. My
hometown is in Haldwani (UP) but I never felt that I have chosen a consultant at
a far distance (Delhi).Iwish, this organization goes on and on supporting millions
of deserted students like me who would surely get misguided unless there is someone
like SAKUN to shelter them.

According to me it was the best decision of my life when I chose SAKUN Educational
Consultants as my foreign education consultant. It was great experience as all the
Jammu staff members are very kind and co-operative. They provide a lot of personal
attention during the Visa file preparation. This is the best place where student
can get more detailed information regarding their admissions and visas. Thank you
so much.

Jammu was deprived of professional overseas consultancy but SAKUN has given the
opportunity to the local students to avail the best of the best services in the

My experience with SAKUN Education’s counselors has been great. Besides helping
me in the selection of course and college, they were always available for my endless
enquiries. I live very far away from Delhi but they shortened the distance by guiding
me regularly. Their pre departure orientation programme is worth mentioning and
I always recommend SAKUN to all my friends.

I would unhesitatingly recommend SAKUN, to all those who wish to study abroad. They
have been very helpful right from day one. They keep regular contact with their
students even in the destination country. I would call it a post landing relationship,
which makes us feel very close to our native country and gives us an understanding
that we have somebody close to us in the new world (destination country). They are
superb.

LOCATION AND GEOGRAPHY
The United Kingdom is a sovereign state situated west of continental Europe; its
total area is 244,820 square kilometers. It comprises four countries: England, Scotland,
Wales, and Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland is the only part of the U.K. with
a land border (with the Republic of Ireland); the rest of the state is surrounded
by bodies of water (the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea, the English Channel, and
the Irish Sea. The English Channel separates the U.K.’s southern coastline from
France. The United Kingdom is renowned for its level plains and rolling green countryside.
These predominate in the south and the east, whereas to the north and the west,
the landscape includes rugged hills and low mountains. The capital is London. Students
from all over the world come to study in uk.
STUDY IN U.K
The UK provides a vibrant, creative and challenging environment with people from
different walks of life where they can feel very comfortable during his/her stay.
UK is a leading trading power and financial center. UK education is recognized and
respected throughout the world and one will gain an insight into their customs and
culture that will shape your view of the global economy in which you’ll soon be
looking to make your career. Over 6,00,000 English language students come to UK
each year. Close contact between students and teachers is a biggest strength of
UK education.
At Post Graduate level, students have to do most of the work by themselves which
develops their thinking and technical abilities. UK institutions maintain high quality
standards and there more than three thousand educational institutions that welcome
international students in the UK. The advantage of living and learning in UK is
to get highly regarded qualification with a multicultural experience. UK postgraduate
programs are either research degrees or taught course. Your UK qualification will
be a solid foundation for building your future, boosting your career and prospects
for a higher salary.
EDUCATION SYSTEM
Higher education typically begins with a three-year bachelor's degree. Post-graduate
degrees include master's degrees (usually one year and/or research) and PhDs (at
least three years). Universities require a royal charter in order to issue degrees,
and the state finances all but one with low fee-levels for students. While the four
countries of the U.K. have differing approaches to vocational education and training
(VET), the training and qualifications are interchangeable and of the same standard.
Three of the countries (England, Wales, and Northern Ireland) share a common system
of external qualifications within the National Qualifications Framework. There are
separate bodies within each country responsible for regulating these qualifications.
England has approximately one-and-a-half million full- and part-time students studying
in higher education. The Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education monitors
and assesses standards across the range of qualifications offered. Further Education
(FE) focuses on development of business and work skills and encourages ongoing lifelong
learning and a skilled, efficient and productive workforce in England. The Learning
and Skills Council and associated bodies formulate policy and administer further
education.
In England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, higher education bodies are independent,
self-governing institutions active in teaching, research, and scholarship. The state,
not the institution, issues degrees and higher education qualifications. In Wales,
the National Assembly is responsible for the broad direction of policy for further
education through the Department of Education and Lifelong Learning (DELLS). There
are 12 universities and 25 further education colleges and institutions in Wales.
English-language programmes are offered within many of these and access to free
language support is available at all Wales’ institutions. Over 8,000 international
students currently study in Wales, with about 10% of these from non-European Union
(EU) countries. Most of the universities are located fairly close to the southern
and western coasts. NEW POINTS-BASED SYSTEM IN U.K. UK businesses and universities
who will now be required to sponsor migrants and help to ensure that those they
sponsor adhere to the terms of their visa.
- Any student who is looking for a Student Visa need to obtain 40 points under new
migration system, which can be obtained from:. a. Visa Letter issued from ‘A’ ranked
universities/institutions (registered in UK Border Agency Sponsor Register) will
give the student 30 points. b. Satisfaction of fund requirement as stated by Border
Agency will make him/her eligible to get another 10 points and thus obtain Visa.
- Evaluation and acceptance of academic criteria for any given course by any given
university is solely at the discretion of university and UK Border Agency will not
BOTHER for the same. For e.g.: a student completed his graduation in 2005 and is
idle for 4 years and would like to take up further studies now. Now UK Border Agency
will not investigate the reasons for gap etc.
- Visa Letter from university shall mention the course, tuition fee and payment received
towards tuition fee advance and explains the evaluation criteria for accepting the
student.
- Cost of living to be demonstrated is as follows: a. Living within London Boroughs
require GBP 800 per month if the course duration is less than 9 months and only
GBP 7200 if the course duration is more than 9 months. b. Living outside London
requires GBP 600 per month if the course duration is less than 9 months and only
GBP 5400 if the course duration is more than 9 months.
- Students who are enrolling for hospitality and healthcare related courses need to
get their medicals done if the visa officer is willing to issue the visa. The process
of completing the medicals may take up to one month.
- UK Border Agency is ready to issue the visa 3 months PRIOR to the course start date.
REQUIRED TESTS
Candidates for admission whose first language is not English normally need to have
A qualification in English Language before they can be admitted to any course or
programme in a UK institution. A general guide to the accepted English language
