Want To Study Abroad? Then Read This First by 9jaStudyAbroad(m): 12:35am On Nov 24, 2015 |
Study abroad doesn’t have to break the bank. There is a lot of information out there online, on campus, and in the form of firsthand experience from friends and other students who’ve recently returned from studying abroad. Here are some helpful tips for anyone that is dreaming to study abroad. Lets go there *1* Apply for Study Abroad Scholarships.* Most colleges have a straightforward framework for applying for study abroad scholarships, one that lays out the potential amounts available, the process and deadlines for applying, and any restrictions that may exist. General scholarships for study abroad assistance, as well as targeted scholarships for diversity, first-generation (if you are the first in your family to attend college), and financially needy students are usually offered. Students must apply for scholarships and some can be very competitive. Be sure to look beyond your college scholarships, and ask your on-campus mentor or study abroad adviser. For further advice and ideas: Call us on 08137615238 *2. Pursue destinations off the beaten track.* The best way to get a handle on the cost of living in your temporary home overseas is to compare the cost of living between the two countries, taking into account the fact that individual cities or regions can be above or below the national level. Study abroad program advisers should be able to provide you with the exchange rates and cost of living statistics for your host country, including those for food, housing and local transportation. Individuals who have studied abroad in the same location or on the same program recently should also be a good source of practical, on-the-ground information. Certain locations such as Spain, England and Italy are inherently going to be more expensive than others such as:Cyprus,Ecuador, Peru or Senegal. It all has to do with the host country’s overall standard of living, especially as reflected in the post secondary education system, and the overall price of basic commodities and services. *3. Opt for a short course.* Many universities have been encouraging students to go on short experiences abroad, coupled with on-campus coursework before departure and after their return. Because these programs involve only a limited time overseas – two to four weeks – they usually have the advantage of being considerably less expensive. However, many of these short courses do not have the same number of scholarships available. *4. Look for Ways to Save Money on the Ground.* Two of the biggest expenses are housing and food. Participating in a homestay is considered the cheapest option and includes meals and laundry, and offers the best immersion. You can also save money by preparing your own meals, if possible, and eating at local restaurants. You should also manage your money wisely, an important lesson to learn as a student that you can carry through life as a traveler. We help most of students with Free AIRPORT services. Won't you be part of this experience. Call us on 08137615238 *5. Work or intern abroad – but do so legally!* Internships abroad are a growing area in education abroad, and they are not only in the purview of study abroad offices. You can also seek guidance from your academic department or career services department which often work with the private sector to arrange internships for their students. More often than ever before, universities are reaching out to their alumni to develop internship opportunities for their students. Plus you might be able to find some sort of work when you arrive, but make sure you investigate and follow local labor laws. *6. Enroll directly in a foreign university.* Perhaps the most cost-effective way to study abroad is to enroll directly in an international institution, taking its courses and making your own travel and other arrangements. This can be done under the auspices of your own university or independently. Depending on the university, your costs can be significantly less (some students have claimed it only paying $2,000-3,000 for a semester, plus travel), plus you’ll have more flexibility and independence. You will be attending classes as an international student, and chances are you will need to know the local language well enough t participate. The amount of time commitment and risk involved (credit transfer can be complicated) on your part is much greater than going with an established program. Study Abroad is a great idea but you must have load of correct information before you travel either as an undergraduate or a post graduate student. More tips next time as you stay with us here.
