Is UK a good option for me to apply to for my second master's degree?
Yes, the UK can be a good option for your second master's degree, especially if your new course clearly builds on your previous studies and supports your career goals.
- Academic progression is important: your second master's should relate to your first (Social Work) and your work experience.
- GPA: Your 6.6 is slightly below the typical 2:1 (about 7.0), but your 7 years of relevant experience can help offset this.
- English proficiency: Most UK universities require an IELTS score of 7.0. You'll need to take the test if you haven't already.
Highlight your professional experience and how the new degree fits your goals in your application. If you need help choosing courses or preparing your application, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
