| Where should I
study? |
| This question

one wants to do, are the courses offered by
the universities in that country, what are
the opportunities after finishing the course
in that country. |
| |
| Which is the “Best”
University & which is the most popular? |
| There is no such
thing as the “best” university.
Almost all Universities are excellent in different
areas. Popularity of the university depends
on the individual preferences and perception
and also on the course one is selecting. |

of the university & which university would

exam required? |
| There are no entrance
exam required but you will have to take English
proficiency exam that is IELTS (International
English Language Testing System) which is
mandatory for Australia & New Zealand.
One can also take TOEFL (Test Of English as
Foreign Language). |
| |
| When should I
apply? |
| If you are planning
to study abroad you must apply at least 4
to 5 months before the course commences, as
the admission procedure takes at least 4 to
5 weeks and visa procedure takes another 5
to 6 weeks. Besides you would also need some
time for your own preparation such as shopping
for personal belongings, meet your relatives
before you depart to your new study destination. |
| |
| How much does
it cost? |
| Overseas education
is expensive but gives you value for your
money by opening global career opportunities
for you. Your major expenses would be incurred
in the tuition fees and living expenses which
varies upon the course and country that you
choose. The other major expenses would be
on travel, visa and shopping. |
| |
| How do I apply
to study? |
| You must meet
our counsellor and take counselling for the
course you are interested to study. Once you
have narrowed down on the course, you need
to complete the application form of the institution
which you have selected and provide all relevant
documents such as your IELTS and TOEFL score,
10th, 12th mark sheet. If you have completed
your bachelors and applying for masters then
your undergraduate mark sheets and degree
certificates are also required. If you don’t
have degree certificate you can apply with

I am studying abroad? |
| Yes very much.
You can work up to 20 hours per week part
time and full time during vacation in Australia,
U.K and Ireland. You can work up to 15 hours

overseas students who obtain a qualification
in demand in Australia and New Zealand. You

Ireland and New Zealand after finishing your
course. In Canada you can apply for one year
work permit after finishing the course. |
| |
| Is there a minimum
score requirement for admission to universities? |
| Institutions vary
in their requirements. Moreover, individual
departments usually set requirements for admission
(especially at the graduate level) with the
result that different departments in the same
institution often require different tests.
It is important to remember that these tests
are only one of the factors in the evaluation
of a student's application for admission.
Most universities do not always have a "cut
off" score for these tests. First, the
bad news! If no financial aid is available,
education in USA is very expensive, and is
beyond the reach of most Indian students.
Tuition fees for an academic year for graduate
education can range from $3,000 (in many state
universities) to as much as $14,000 in some
reputed private institutions. |
| |
| For
two years of graduation, the average tuition
fee alone could therefore be $20,000. Living
expenses, even on a conservative estimate,
could be around $500 per month or $10,500
for 21 months. Adding the travel cost, the
total expenditure for securing a graduate
degree from a good institution in USA can
be of the order of $32,000. In terms of Indian
rupees, at today's exchange value ($1=Rs.45.40),
this works out to around Rs.14, 40,000, a
staggering sum indeed! |
| |
| The good news
is that all deserving students, whether US
citizens or foreign nationals, can hope to
get substantial financial assistance, either
from the universities themselves, or from
various other agencies, which will cover most,
if not all, of this cost. A vast majority
of Indian students currently pursuing graduate
and doctoral studies in USA are from middle
class families who could not have afforded
such expenses themselves, but have been enabled
higher education only by awards of such liberal
financial aid. |
| |
| What are the sources
of Financial Aid open to international students
at the Undergraduate level? |
| Most of the financial
aid programs at the undergraduate level are
generally funded by the Federal Government.
Some of the universities (state as well as
private) provide funds to the international
students depending upon various factors such
as the academic achievements, scores received
in TOEFL and SAT, etc. Competition for these
scholarships (which are limited in number)
is very keen. |
