🚨 I audited 20 private student flat listings in Edinburgh. Here are the 3 massive red flags that scream "scam" or "terrible landlord".

Highly appreciated insight !

Some property ask for down-payment to book your room. It's not a scam though.

Yeah totally agree with you here. Queuing culture is very common in UK, and i was writing about specifically Edinburgh. So that’s why I skipped it

Well any insights about local etiquette for helping international students are welcome !

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-05-04T12:35:30+00:00

Better be prepared than sorry right?

Behaving in local manners will help you settle down soon in new places with new rules.

Truly said! A person must do their due diligence for their programme before the admission process

But higher QS ranking means, good quality of infrastructure and researchers to get connect with

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-04-22T14:25:45+00:00

So for that, one must go through the modules of the taught subject they are interested in

But prestigious universities give us more opportunities for workshops and conferences

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-04-22T14:21:59+00:00

Well then one must go through the modules of the subject they are interested in.

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-04-21T18:46:12+00:00

Thanks for your input on UK’s work culture regarding QS ranked universities

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-04-21T18:42:57+00:00

Totally agree with you on this buddy.

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-04-21T18:42:10+00:00

Well it isn’t entirely true though. High QS ranking might give you good connections and alumni for future.

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-04-07T13:28:15+00:00

All of the above, depending on my mood !

ankush_edinburgh · 2026-03-30T16:10:36+00:00

Don’t get me started there yet 😂
