The principles outlined on these pages apply to both Home/EU and international students. Universities UK offer specific advice to universities on recruiting international students.

• Devise strategies for retaining international students already in the UK.
• Offer fee support, ie. international student scholarships.
• Develop guidelines for minimum supervision levels (PGR student expectations have been rising and value-for-money is important, especially for self or privately funded students).
• Ensure that websites address the needs of international PGR as well as PGR more generally.

Specific, professional advice about PGR recruitment and the international arena can be obtained from the Director of the International Office, Suzanne Alexander.
