@Pseudonym I lost my job first. But I thought hey, at least I have an offer. But no. Smacked down by the Italians.

@Topumasum This is the UK university I went to. They call it the International University because they take students from a lot of backgrounds.

Here is the admissions page for international postgraduates: https://www.kent.ac.uk/internationalstudent/entry-requirements/entryrequirements-bangladesh.html

And here is the UK government pages detailing entry requirements for UK student visas: https://www.gov.uk/tier-4-general-visa

Worth a read if you would consider the UK to study. I have no idea how funding etc works for international PhD students, so I'm sorry but I really cannot give advice on that.

@Pseudonym funding rarely comes for international students in UK.
