Postgraduation in Accounting in UK ?
Postgraduation in Accounting in UK ?
Could anyone please recommend good universities here in UK (in particular around Midlands or London area), for doing postgraduation in Accounting, for an overseas student? Besides, he'd also like to know how many years it takes to finish such course and what sort of working hours would he be allowed to do, in his 2 year stay here and would he need certain type of visa or would student visa be sufficient to work part-time, while working towards his post graduation? What sort of living cost (accommodation, etc.) would he be looking for? Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1 :
Warwick and Manchester have very good accounting programs. LSE particularly excels in accounting. Here is LSE's accounting website for postgrads: http://www2.lse.ac.uk/accounting/prospectiveStudents/postgraduate/MScAccountingAndFinance.aspx It takes 1 year to finish the course (full-time) and at least 2 years if part-time. Not sure about the hours. Yes, he'll need a VISA. Yes, he will be able to work part-time with the VISA, but I think the limit is 20 (school year)-40 hours (holidays) per week. Here is the link: http://www.workpermit.com/uk/student.htm I'm not sure about accommodation. Living in the UK is more expensive than in many other countries.
