    MOEC, DUBAI

    In the UK, many institutions with similar origins, adjacent geographic locations, and ambitions join themselves together in order to encourage collaboration, build relations with local businesses, and impactful research.

    Russel Group is one such university group (public-funded university) consisting of 24 member institutions.

    Russel Group is a catch-up name for a university group with a shared focus on research and a reputation for academic achievement. This group includes the 06 ‘Red Brick’ universities as well.

    1. All Russel Group universities are at the top of university league tables, with a high reputation although the selection criteria are tough and fee structure is very high.
    2. The universities and courses among Russel Group universities have their own entry requirements, fee structure, and selection criteria.
    3. Admission to Russel Group institutions are only through the online system – Universities and Colleges Admission Services (UCAS).

    How did the name come?

    The origin of the Russel Group dates back to 1994, with 17 original members sitting out to ensure their interests were represented by the government. The heads of these institutions met unofficially in the Hotel Russel in London, which is where the name came from.

    There are currently 24 universities with Russel Group as of now.

    What are the general selection requirements & fee range?

    IELTS requirement is 07 bands minimum/relevant admission test conducted by the university/interview, etc.

    Fee range per annum 20 L – 45 L.

    Admission process through the UCAS portal.

    Public Funded Universities:
