Yesterday I was checking all the general information about finding and obtaining a phd in uk, and I found out that for a foreign student overseas ( I am albanian) you should have a Toefl score of at least 580 while my scores are 233 which is computer-based but converted in Internet-based test is 577 WILL THAT BE A PROBLEM ? I WAS REALLY UPSET when I realised this fact because currently I am an intern in an American University and I work as a student coordinator and house coordinator as well, my english is improving day by day. What shoul i do?:$

How do I find funded phd opportunities?
Where do students go usuallly?
Thank you:-(

Hi everybody, I am a student looking for a Phd opportunity in Uk, and I am finishing my post-degree studies in Italy (Rome) in International Translation and Literature (similar to a post-graduate degree). After that I really want to experience new methods of studying and explore the English culture, due to this I was wondering if someone could tell me if it is difficult or easy for a foreign student to find a Phd concerning Linguistics or other field related to it in Uk, are there a lot of fully-covered Phd or I will have to find a job? Any sort of information will be very precious for me! Thank you
