In most universities they cover only the UK/EU rate for international students. I think for UK/EU nationals it is around 3000 and for international students it is around 13000.
But they offer stipend of 13000. Will that be enough in Nottingham or Newcastle. Those are the two universities I am looking for now. With a part-time job and a stipend of 13000, will it be enough to manage all the expenses including the tuition? And how hard is to get a part-time job? I know international students can work for only 18-20hrs a week.
Thank you for your responses!

I no idea about expenses in UK. Lets say I get a PhD studentship with 13,000/yr stipend and my tuition fees covered at UK rate. I would still have to pay 10,000/yr for my tuition (I have to pay international student fee). Do you think I can cover it with my stipend and a PART-TIME job on campus? Can somebody please give me a little idea about expenses in UK. I am sure each place is different. But a rough idea will be greatly appreciated. Thanks a ton!

Thank you Satchi. I hope I get it. Well, this is not my first trip overseas. I was in US for the past 5 yrs. I just came back to India this past June.
Merry Christmas to you too.

Hello,
I have received an invite to attend an interview for a PhD program at Berlin Brandenburg School for Regenerative Therapy (BSRT). I was just wondering how many people get to attend this interview / assessment center.
I am definitely preparing well for this interview that is to take place in Jan 17-19 of 2011.
Since they are paying for my trip and accommodation I am assuming not many people would have got invited.
I am just trying to figure out what are my chances to get selected in that program. Can somebody please help?
