Shine! International Student Awards

Shine! & Shine Plus! Two chances to win!

Shine! International Student Awards 2012 is an exciting competition that celebrates the achievements of international students and their contributions to life in the UK. Shine! is run by the British Council, the UK's international organisation for educational opportunities and cultural relations.

“By telling us about the things that make your time in the UK so exciting and rewarding, you can earn some well-deserved public recognition and prestige for your out-of-class achievements.

It’s easy to enter:

Simply write a letter to someone back home telling them all about your time in the UK and how the UK has challenged and excited you. You can talk about ways in which you feel you have contributed to life at university and in the surrounding community and send the letter to us online at www.educationuk.org/shine.

The panel of judges – other students, education professionals and British Council colleagues – will choose the best letters to become shining examples of UK life for future international students.”
