Know your interests and passion

Find your interests and passion by examining what you enjoy learning. Note the subjects that excite you, if you like solving numerical or answering analytical and reasoning questions or if you are inclined towards business or healthcare sector. Make a list, and it will help to shortlist the courses.

Reflect on your motivations

It is crucial to reflect on the reasons for choosing a specific course. Consider all the factors and do extensive research. Decision-making at a young age is an arduous task but has a significant impact on your life. Pursue a course based on your interests and lifelong dreams, not under the influence of friends or family. You are the only one who knows what is best for you.

Career Prospects

Align your interests with rewarding opportunities. It is important to follow your passion, but always make sure that the chosen career offers promising options in the future. Research on the demand of the field in the next 20 years. If it comes under in-demand job roles, you will be financially secure. Some students choose a course related to their passion, but after completing their studies, they realize there are fewer jobs in this field. You can go into a rapidly expanding field with plenty of job opportunities. There are no straight answers, so know and understand what is important for you.

Course Curriculum

Selected a course? Now, look at the course curriculum by visiting the official website of universities & colleges and explore different aspects of the course along with the semester's duration. Ask yourself whether you have the willingness to learn this particular subject. Choose wisely and always select the subject you love studying the most.

Access if you are eligible

After choosing a program, check that you meet all entry-level requirements for the particular program. Studying abroad requires proof of English language proficiency, so appear for the standardized tests. Some programs may have higher requirements, such as Health Sciences or MBA.

Course affordability

It is essential to know the cost of the course and how much you can finance your education. Check what amount has to be paid per semester or year. There are several options like grants, scholarships and bursaries to fund your education. Find the study abroad scholarships available for your program and apply to them.
