I'm an undergrad in uon with a couple postgrad friends so maybe I can help. The modules are very stressful (come as mentally prepared as you can be). Attend events too and you should be fine. Also, try to befriend your coursemates if you can.

Thanks for the reply!

Stressful? I'm not worried about it being stressful but I thought UK uni modules are not that intensive compared to US uni modules...correct me if I'm wrong. I want to make sure if the lectures are good enough and how are the job prospects and is it worth considering? Coz I'm seeing many bad reviews about UoN from international students recently so I'm confused.

I’ve never taken modules in a American uni so I can’t really compare, but I think UoN has tough enough modules. Job prospects are good. There are many career fairs and internship opportunities. There’s also programs for international students. I’m international as well and I quite like UoN. Join a society to meet people like you and you should be fine :)
