Bulgaria

Bulgarians have been coming to study at the University of Glasgow for decades - our first known student arriving in 1942 - and alumni are now active in technology, academia and other professions the world over. In fact, we welcome over 350 students from Bulgaria every year, one of the highest of any EU country, attracted by student life at a world top 100 university in one of the world’s best student cities.

Why not consider joining them and share our love of mountains, wine, bagpipes - and perhaps even open our eyes to the joys of yoghurt!

In the meantime, why don’t you check out our Bulgarian and Central and Eastern European Studies societies?

Meet Us

Students who choose to be counselled by an agency should expect the following standards of service:

  • Representatives will support students throughout the application process, providing advice and assistance in the preparation/submission of documents. It is, however, the applicant who must remain ultimately responsible for their account and the management of communications.
  • Representatives will have full access to student data contained within the application form and may manage a student application by discussing all aspects of the application with the University of Glasgow.
  • Representatives should be honest and accurate in communicating information about the University to the student and vice versa. At no time should representatives disseminate false or misleading information to the student or to the University.
  • Representatives will conduct themselves with fairness and integrity at all times and are subject to a rigorous selection and ongoing training process by the University of Glasgow.
  • Representatives are paid by the University for their services and will not pass on charges to prospective students.
