Study Abroad Consultants
When going gets tough, the tough get going. Today, this saying is true like never before. The pandemic times have brought the world closer and demolished borders of culture, nations, and religions. The survival of humanity through these tough times has proved like never before, that only those who continuously evolve and learn from their experiences, will be the ones to progress and prosper. But what is learning?
Why online learning can never replace university education
In times when information is available at the click of a button, we need a clearcut understanding of the distinction between information and knowledge. Just to simplify our argument, we would say – information is a one-way process. Knowledge, on the other hand, is a dialogue that evolves through continuous interaction between the student and the teacher.
style="text-align:justify;"This precise aspect is what brings us to emphasize the fact that digital education and online learning may advance to whatever unforeseen levels in the future. But will never be able to replace the classroom learning format that created some of the greatest minds in the world and brought humanity to the current levels of technological advancements.
Why study abroad? (Study abroad vs study in India)
As we said earlier, the globe is shrinking and only the best minds that have exposure to global standards of education, processes, and skills will be the ones to rule businesses in the coming decades. And a growing population of students is waking up to this fact. According to government data, a whopping 4.45 lakh Indian students studied in overseas universities.
So if you are a bright mind with a global outlook, there is nothing that stops you in your pursuit to seek an international degree. While we are strong believers in the India story and the fact that India is a major economy set to play a significant role in the world, the drivers of this engine are people like you, and us, who need to have a global picture in view. In this regard, the universities in the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, and Europe are the major global hubs of education. Certifications from these internationally acclaimed universities can significantly lift you from the masses and place you among the best in the world.
Another key aspect that is often gets neglected is that most top foreign universities deploy a ‘sandwich course’ model, meaning the integration of theory with industry interaction. Besides giving you exposure to the best in the world faculty members, these universities also introduce you to industry leaders, who can be your mentors, and even become rewarding members of your network. And who knows, they could even become your next employers!
What is the right age to study abroad?
There is no age limit for learning. From graduation to master’s courses that can form the foundation of your professional career, global universities in the USA, Canada, the UK, Europe, and Australia offer you specialized certifications, long and short-duration courses, diplomas, and even executive programs.
So, you could be a student freshly out of college, a mid-career professional between 35-45, or for that matter a top executive between 45-60, there is a course for every need of yours. Age is just a number is true, especially when it comes to education, we must say!

Course fees and cost of living
Argument: Overseas education is expensive
Our take: A big NO
Naysayers argue that overseas education is expensive. Visibly, when you convert a dollar for rupees and, or, Euros for INR, the fees of foreign universities may look mind-boggling. But there is one key element that those crying for the supposedly higher cost of education abroad are forgetting - the Return on Investment (RoI). Take for instance this case – The average salary of Bachelor of Computer Science graduates in India is Rs 3-5 lakh per annum. The same for freshers in the UK is 44000 EUR - That's a whopping Rs 35 lakh plus. In the USA, the average is about USD 50,000 - equivalent to INR 41 lakh plus. So, our prime argument is that when you are investing in foreign education and upgrading your professional competencies to global standards, you will be rewarded with equivalent returns. Remember, spending on quality education is an investment!
But what about the living expenses?
This is another argument put forth by many. But we want to ask - what stops you from working part-time as a student and earning your cost of living while you study? And no, you don't have to work at McDonald's only. It could be small administrative jobs or internships and skilled professional assignments for mid-career professionals. Check out some open-source information and you will be surprised to know how much you can earn while working as a part-timer in the USA, Canada, the UK, and Australia.
Financing: Overseas education loan in India – What are the options?
For those willing to take the first step, the world is waiting to be explored. There is a plethora of financial institutions and banks offering education loans at attractive rates. The repayment of education loans starts after completing the course. And guess what, there is nothing that can stop you from earning in dollars/ EURs/ AUDs and collecting the extra buck to repay your loan, which, we want to reiterate, is still in INR!
