I have an eviction & bad credit on my record. If I move to the UK for school, will the bad credit follow me

I have an eviction & bad credit on my record. If I move to the UK for school, will the bad credit follow me?
I don't have any outstanding debts, but after discovering that it is almost impossible for me to get an apartment here after my dad defaulted on my last lease agreement I've decided to go finish my schooling in the UK. Will my bad credit follow me?

yes it will because of your decision to not pay your bills. You think your credit will change like a magic wand? It will show up and you should be ashamed!
2 :
First of all unlike what the guy below said you definitely should not be ashamed of yourself unless you got bad credit on purpose. Having done loans for a very long I can tell you most people have something like this in there background and it makes you no better or worse of a person. That said no it will not follow you around, you will start fresh and new. Your SS number is only good in the US so there is no way for it to follow you.

I worked in one for about two years. Then someone discovered the glory hole in the girls bathroom.....They then fired me and brought up a whole lot of legal charges against me. Lucky for me i was a illegal immigrant of the country so the school should have never hired me. So i counter sued them and got off scott free.

Would it be a good idea for an American to attend medical school in the UK

Would it be a good idea for an American to attend medical school in the UK?
I am a seventeen year old American very interested in becoming a doctor. I am told medical school is only about 7-8 years in the UK compared to about 11-12 years in the US. I love the thought of saving four years if I attended schooling over seas. Would this be a good idea? If i did go, and became a doctor would i ever have to opportunity to practice medicine in the US after so many years if i desired so? feedback?

The UK has top flight medical education, so if you want to study there then go right ahead. If you want to practice in the US you will have to take the State Board exam for the State in which you wish to practice and you will required to show evidence that you have completed your medical education in the UK satisfactorily.

Well, first you'd have to get in. One of the reasons the courses in the UK are shorter is that they only take the absolute top academic candidates and the courses are amazingly intense. Plus of course you start on them right away as an undergraduate. No concept of pre-med. It's not normally recommended to qualify in one country if you want to work in another, but it's possible.
