Going overseas for higher education is a common goal shared by many Indian youngsters. After being delayed for two years due to COVID, students appear to be catching up on lost time in droves, as the number of foreign students from India surpassed one lakh in March 2022. This enthusiasm is reasonable, as overseas education offers both intellectual and personal progress, as well as a level of quality and variety not found in India. However, this ideal is unattainable without addressing the very real expenses of international education. Simply put, traveling overseas is costly. As a result, controlling it is critical.
Having said that, financial worries should never prevent us from taking a proactive step toward international education. Students enter their journey by researching the top courses, institutions, and colleges available and compiling a list of institutes to consider. This is when planning comes into play. Accounting for all facets of living abroad, from tuition to laundry, housing to the internet helps preserve financial security and a sense of mind. As a result, overall performance improves. Here’s how to properly budget for your overseas study.
The desired nation and its expense of living are possibly the most important factors to consider while budgeting for foreign schooling. This step is critical since these charges will follow participants off campuses and can significantly raise the price above and above the quoted course fees. As a result, a decent budget will consider currency conversion rates, the status of the country’s economy, projected cost of living, and so on. While this may appear complicated and frightening, there are several programmes and resources available to assist children and parents at every stage of the process.

Scholarships are sometimes perceived as a demanding endeavour by students. A specific tool utilised solely by the finest pupils and consequently out of reach for the others. Fortunately, this is far from the case. Almost all reputable colleges provide merit-based awards and scholarships. Students should apply for as numerous such chances as feasible in order to lower their total expenses. This is certainly relevant for overseas students, as international currency rates for the Indian rupee are rarely beneficial. Students can boost their chances of receiving a scholarship by casting a broad net and applying to all accessible programmes. Furthermore, there are several web tools that may assist you in compiling extensive lists of scholarships.
Financial instruments.
Borrow from abroad: A local loan originator from the nation of your choice can be one of the most efficient financial instruments in such instances. A student can ensure that the loan is administered and returned in the same currency acquired by getting loan providers from the destination country. This decreases risks while avoiding currency translation losses.
Investigate university-affiliated lenders: Some colleges work directly with financial firms to assist their overseas students. Educational loans obtained in this manner are better received, have reduced interest rates, and benefited from lesser volatility.
Fixed-rate loans eliminate risk:
Invest in overseas assets:
Parents may elect to invest in international markets to avoid currency changes and to hedge against economic swings. While potentially beneficial, such investment necessitates a certain level of cash and knowledge and is most successful over a longer period of time.
Consultation service:
Some families choose to outsource their financial concerns to specialized educational firms that have direct contact with colleges. Such services have become dependable stalwarts in international education funding across the world.
In conclusion, while planning to study abroad can be a difficult and tedious endeavor, it ultimately assures a happier and more rewarding stay abroad and allows students to fully explore the new environment. And perhaps that makes all the work worthwhile.

Best thing about Vivek Gupta Sir is his selfless counselling.

In any other country, it would have taken by 5.5-6 years. Ms Kanimojhi in Chennai office of GKWorks was equally supportive in coordination regarding documents, departure and all other formalities.
We live 100 Km’s away from Varanasi. The internet connection in our town is very weak and my parents are not that educated. For us, understanding the word RTGS was also very difficult. Thanks to Amit Pandey Sir, who is Gkworks Varanasi incharge, he helped us to do all small things. Going with us to get forex to helping us doing RTGS for fee payment, he was always there with us. He only helped us to apply for passport online and went with us to passport office Varanasi. Such support at ground level was provided by GKworks team both in Varanasi and Delhi.
My parents were not very comfortable to send me abroad especially my mother as I am the only son of my parents. I really wanted to become a doctor and thus approached Hemant Mishra Sir, director of Bareilly branch of GKWorks. He went out of his way to convince my mother. He would have come 5 times to my home, invited us to his office and home 10 times before my mother was finally convinced. It is only due to Hemant Sir in Bareilly that I am pursuing my course today. I wish GKworks and especially Bareilly branch all the very best to help many more students for their life dreams.
