Study Abroad Frequently Asked Question!
Can a middle-class student afford to go abroad?
Absolutely! Many universities offer scholarships, grants, and need-based aid that cover most, if not all, costs. Choosing affordable countries or programs and starting at community colleges are also great ways to make it happen.
Why is the U.S. still the best choice even though it’s so expensive?
The U.S. offers top-notch education, diverse programs, great research opportunities, and fantastic career prospects. The payoff in skills, experience, and earning potential often justifies the investment.
Am I too late to go abroad? Or too young?
Nope! Students go abroad right after Class 12, for postgrad, or even mid-career. It’s all about timing that fits your personal goals, not a specific age.
How easy is it to get FULL financial aid?
It’s competitive but doable! Schools like Harvard and MIT have need-blind admissions for international students, which means your financial situation won’t affect your application. Strong grades, extracurriculars, and a standout application boost your chances.
I’m an average student—can I still get into Harvard?
While Harvard is selective, they look at the whole person—not just grades. Show passion, leadership, and dedication in activities beyond academics. Plenty of “average” students have landed spots at top schools through persistence and strong applications.
We even have an entire YouTube video about this.
Can I work while studying abroad?
Yes, most student visas allow part-time work on campus, and some countries let students work off-campus, which can help with expenses.
How easy is it to transfer to another university once I start abroad?
Pretty manageable! Many U.S. universities and colleges accept transfer students, especially from community colleges, so you can move to your dream school as long as your credits and grades align.
When should I apply for studying abroad after 12th?
Start researching and prepping in Class 11. Applications are usually submitted by the beginning of Class 12 for the following year. Aim to complete exams like the SAT/ACT by then, too.
Will I get completely RICH if I study abroad?
A degree abroad can open high-paying job opportunities, but “rich” depends on your field, location, and career path. Think of it as a strong investment in your future rather than a guaranteed ticket to riches.
Do I need to take an English proficiency test?
Usually, yes—most universities require TOEFL or IELTS scores unless you’ve studied in English already. Some schools have exceptions, so check each school’s policy.
You can give DET as well. It’s quite popular for Indian Students.
How do I choose the right country or university?
There’s just so much we can talk about this particular questions… But in short, think about your budget, field of study, and career goals. Look for universities that excel in your field, and consider the cultural fit and post-graduation opportunities.
Can I stay in the country after graduation?
Many countries offer post-study work visas or pathways to residency. The U.S., for example, has the OPT program, which allows graduates to work for up to three years in certain fields.
Choosing particular universities like Drexel and others could give you an edge in this.
