Mistakes you Should Avoid when Applying for Foreign Education

Preparing for foreign education is a hard task and only those who are studying or are preparing for the same know it very well. In the midst of the entire hustle bustle, it is common for students to make these mistakes.

However, it is never too late to correct or learn from your mistakes. Seek consultants, Student Immigration Services in Delhi brings to you a list of all the things which students must consider before packing their bags for an international university. Let’s get started!

     1.       DON’T CONSIDER ONLY TUITION FEE WHEN BUDGETING: This is where most of the students drop their plans as foreign education is expensive. However, education loans are available but they only cover the tuition fee and that too up to a limit of 80% - 85%. The rest of the tuition fee is to be managed by the students.

Aside from the tuition fee, other expenses like travel costs, visa, accommodation, food, clothing etc. form a pretty significant amount for the duration of your stay. These costs are even more if you decide to study in the UK. Therefore, consider these expenses also when budgeting for foreign education.

      2.       IGNORING SCHOLARSHIPS: Foreign universities offer a bunch of scholarships which the potential students aren’t even aware of. Thinking they might not qualify, some students don’t even try for it. But the truth is, even a simple 500 – 600 words essay about yourself and what you will be able to do for the university can land you a scholarship.

      3.       WRONG DOCUMENTATION: Different countries have different document requirements which are perhaps the main cause of sending wrong documents. Even a single wrong document can cause a delay in the whole process. In case of any query, you should promptly get in touch with the international affairs office of your university. It is better to seek advice than to send wrong documents.

      4.       TAKING VISA FOR GRANTED: Once you have got the acceptance letter from the university, you should immediately start applying for a student visa. Don’t think that it is easy and will be done with a snap of your fingers. Depending on the country you are aiming for, document requirements could be relaxed or complicated. Whatever be the case, don’t take it for granted and consult Seek Consultants - Immigration Services in Delhi in case of any doubt.
 

      5.       HAVE A “PLAN B” IN PLACE: You applied to your dream university and now you are waiting for their reply. Your dream university is the dream University of Thousands of other students and the seats are very limited. Therefore, it is better to have other universities on your radar in case things don’t go as you would like them to go.

CONCLUSION

It is never too early to start applying to your dream university. It will only give you a head start and help you complete the documentation ahead of time. The time left before you leave can then be utilized to pamper yourself and buy new clothes to look and feel good at the new destination.
