British Council<br />
has answers<br />
<strong>to</strong> your further<br />
education in UK<br />
In Sarawak the British Council<br />
is the best conduit <strong>to</strong> accessing<br />
information on studying in UK; it<br />
has the complete list of universities,<br />
colleges and schools all over<br />
UK specializing in virtually every<br />
profession, trade and skills. The<br />
Council’s Education UK is the official<br />
website <strong>to</strong> assist international<br />
students <strong>to</strong> learn about all these<br />
educational institutions and<br />
facilities as well as useful tips about<br />
particular <strong>place</strong>s and courses. In<br />
fact, over 1.8 million people all over<br />
the world use the site each year <strong>to</strong><br />
learn about studying in UK.<br />
For many who may be unfamiliar<br />
with the UK, there are also over 3000<br />
scholarships available in UK institutions<br />
for students that can be found through<br />
the website. Apart from learning about<br />
these opportunities, the website also<br />
informs about the cultural diversities of<br />
the UK and prepares foreign students<br />
for their arrival in the various regions<br />
of UK. As one of the oldest and most<br />
trusted site for education UK around<br />
the world, the Council however,<br />
does not actively promote individual<br />
institutions over others in delivery<br />
of information <strong>to</strong> all those who are<br />
interested.<br />
