Thinking of going abroad to study? Exciting stuff! But be warned - it's not for everyone. Be ready for a long spell away from home in an unfamiliar setting. Check out the quick guide to make sure you've got everything covered.
Choosing a Course
Check the entry requirements and identify what results you will need to facilitate any further study. Make sure you've passed any tests you need to get on the course and always choose an accredited institution.
How Much Will It Cost?
Tuition fees can be fairly costly. Usually, international students will pay higher fees and you have to pay for a visa application just to apply. After tuition fees, also remember you'll have living expenses, accommodation, travel costs, books. It all adds up!
Can I Get Funding?
Possibly there are plenty of ways to gain funding for study or research abroad. Awards and scholarships are usually specific to an institution or country but funding from external bodies is also possible. Also contact the institution you're interested in joining for more information.
