What offerai.uk is for

OfferAI helps turn a broad study-abroad idea into a shortlist you can verify. Ask Lina about programs, entry requirements, budgets, visa questions or family logistics. She can organise the comparison and, where appropriate, offer a hand-off to a UNILINK adviser. A chat response is not an admission decision, immigration opinion or promise of an outcome.

What to ask first

If you’re early-stage, try: “My profile is X. Suggest five UK MSc programs and show the official course link for each.” If you already hold offers, try: “I have offers from A, B and C. Compare tuition, modules, location and graduate outcomes, and separate facts from judgement.”

Useful inputs include your degree, grades, subject prerequisites, English test status, target intake, total budget and non-negotiables. Do not paste passwords, bank details, full identity documents or other information that is not needed for the question.

Where she gets the facts

OfferAI uses structured course information, adviser notes and links to official sources. Course fees, entry requirements and immigration rules change, so every important claim should be checked against the university or government page linked in the answer. If a current source is unavailable, treat the response as a lead for further research, not a fact.

A three-step verification habit

  1. Open the official course page and check the exact intake, campus and international fee.
  2. Check visa requirements on GOV.UK, not a forum or an old adviser post.
  3. Put subjective factors — prestige, city fit, teaching style and career goals — in a separate column from factual eligibility.

Frequently asked questions

Can OfferAI tell me whether I will be admitted?

No. It can help estimate fit and expose missing information, but only the university can issue an admission decision.

Can Lina give immigration advice?

Lina can explain and link public information. A situation-specific immigration opinion should be checked with an appropriately authorised professional.

What should I do when two sources disagree?

Prefer the current university or government page for the exact course or visa route. Record the page date and ask the institution to confirm any material ambiguity in writing.
