London, UK
A London university with a distinctive fashion, business, computing and nursing mix — and family familiarity through its Dubai campus.
Middlesex University's main site is a single, purpose-built campus in Hendon, north London — a quieter, more residential setting than central London, with fast Underground access into the city. It's particularly known for fashion design and textiles, business and accounting, computing and cybersecurity, and nursing and midwifery, alongside solid criminology, psychology and law departments. Many GCC families already have some familiarity with the university through Middlesex University Dubai, which shares academic standards and can make the UK campus feel like a less unfamiliar choice. International tuition typically runs £17,000-£19,000.

Informational only — scholarship amounts, deadlines and even which schemes are running change often (sometimes per intake), so treat this as a starting point, not a guarantee. Always confirm current details directly with the scholarship provider or Middlesex University's financial aid office.
Beyond government-level awards, most UK universities offer their own merit-based international scholarships — commonly a partial tuition reduction for strong A-Level/IB/IGCSE results, sometimes auto-considered from your application and sometimes requiring a short separate form.
Chevening and Commonwealth are postgraduate-only. For undergraduate applicants, the university-specific merit scholarships are usually the more relevant route.
