It depends. A degree from a deemed-to-be university in India can impact your UK admission chances, but the effect varies by university and program.

- UK universities review international degrees individually, focusing on your university's accreditation, curriculum quality, and your grades.
- Some UK institutions may be cautious about deemed-to-be university degrees, but many assess them if you show strong academics and relevant experience.

To strengthen your application, consider getting a credential evaluation from UK ENIC and prepare detailed information about your degree and university.
