First Day in UK

When we reached the Heathrow airport last Tuesday, we were being welcomed..



We proceeded to the university and then hopped in the UNO bus..
The UNO bus which operates to and fro the University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield.


Some views of the College Campus of the university..

the main reception


Hutton Building
the students' union


We reached the Telford Court where the undergraduates are staying..

Day 1: 
I followed my girl to settle some stuff and finally I did my most important duty ie paid the tuition fees in full. Got a rebate of 500 pounds but the interest being charged on my credit card was 1.5%.

    what do mean there is an interest fee?
    so they add additional cost if you pay in credit card?

    What a surprise to hear that they offered such a huge rebate! During my time, the students could not enter the classroom if they had not paid the fees! The lecturer would shoo them out as they really mean "business is business!"

      Even local colleges and universities are also good enough. I was so stupid that local universities would not take me in that time.

      Now that the pounds have dropped, it has become more affordable to study. I hope the pounds will drop even lower so that Yvonne and Yannie can send their kids there!
