While applying for education abroad seems easy, it includes selecting a program that best matches the student's potential, submitting correct documents, writing an SOP, applying for a study visa, and more.
Traveling to a developed country for higher education has always been a popular choice among youngsters. Such an experience not only offers them the opportunity to learn at globally ranked institutions but also helps them to meet people from different ethnicities, develop communication skills and adapt to a new environment.
While applying for education abroad seems easy, it includes selecting a program that best matches the student's potential, submitting correct documents, writing an SOP, applying for a study visa, and more. An error at any step may lead to the refusal of the application, which is why it is always recommended that students seek the guidance of overseas education consultants to avoid the chances of rejection.
Why choose an Education Consultant?
An education agent plays a vital role in helping students make a hassle-free application or paperwork processing. An expert consultant provides delicate services in terms of shortlisting desired courses and academic institutes in their preferred country. The role of a consultant is to help students identify their strengths and use these to select the best institute based on their profile, requirement, and preferences.
What role do you think a consultant plays in the child's education?
Overseas education consultants provide help in many areas:
1. Evaluation of profile: The primary role of an overseas education consultant is to first understand a student's profile, their area of study, interests, future goals, etc., and then provide them with program possibilities that best match their profile.
2. Selecting the university: Often, choosing the right university can be a daunting task as there are a plethora of universities offering even higher number of courses. Here an education expert helps students find and apply to the academic institutes offering the course of student's interests.
3. Admission Processing: The study abroad consultant help students fill out their admission forms correctly and prepare financial documents.
4. Documents: The process of applying to a university abroad is a cumbersome task as it involves the submission of documents like marksheets, transcripts, SOP, LOR, loan papers, etc. Hiring an education consultant helps students keep a record of these documents and ensures that all documents are submitted on time.
5. Financial Aid Options: Study abroad counselors also guide students about scholarships, application fee waivers, education loans, and other types of financial assistance to help them apply to study abroad without worrying about a lack of funds.
6. Statement of Purpose Preparation: Education consultants help students prepare an honest and appealing SOP, an essay written to the university officials to help them better understand the student profile.
8. Process after getting accepted: The role of an education consultant is not confined to the admission of students abroad. It rather involves updating students on the change in rules and regulations along with assisting in accommodation, lifestyle and managing finance, etc.
