The information for the first question can easily be found in the Internet as it contains numerous websites which provide full info about British colleges and universities. All of these websites give quite a complete list of UK colleges and universities which is duly updated. Such lists have additional info about the courses available at each educational institution. Now British colleges and universities offer more than 50,000 courses! One of the best references of such websites would be educationuk.org which contains the greatest and continuously updated list of UK educational institutions, some useful links for foreign students and additional info about study courses available.

There are two types of British education: students can study either full-time or part-time. It is important for applicants to decide first which type of education fits them best because each type differs in applying procedures. Undergraduates which apply for a full-time study should pass UCAS application process. UCAS is Universities and Colleges Admissions Service ‘that processes applications for full-time undergraduate courses at UK universities and colleges’ (see UCAS official website ucas.com). UCAS provides online downloadable application forms for students and some tips for successful application assessment procedure. At ucas.com you can also find other useful information for students such as UK colleges and universities location, entry requirements, benefits of higher education in the UK and useful links regarding financial aid, accommodation and travel advice.

Those students who are looking for part-time study opportunities do not have to pass UCAS application process. They can choose the course and educational institution online and contact its administration directly from this institution website by email.

The UK higher education tuition fees considerably vary depending on the course and college or university a student has chosen to study at. Be ready to pay the lowest one-year tuition fee of six thousand British pounds. The highest tuition fees rate may require from student twenty thousand pounds for one-year study.

Most students prefer to study at the place other than their native town/city/country. Thus, accommodation is the important question. Like many other educational institutions the UK colleges and universities provide a wide range of accommodations and even assist their students find the very accommodation they can afford or prefer to live in. Colleges and universities can offer their own halls which are bedrooms inside the institution. The halls can be shared with another student or you can live there alone. Most students prefer to rent lodgings, houses and apartments which are located nearby the college or university. Usually UK students have to share their accommodation with other students to save money on accommodation payment because its cost is quite high, about six hundred British pounds per month. If you are quite short of money ask your college or university to help you find cheaper accommodation. They would gladly support you with such help.
