10 Important Things Indian Students Should Know When Planning to Study Abroad

Studying abroad requires some preparation so that you know what to expect and enjoy both learning and living abroad. Many Indian students who come to study in Australia, Europe, or the U.S. find this a little daunting. To turn your student journey into an enjoyable one, you need to know 10 basic things as follows.

1. Be well informed (Research)

Before moving to another country, it is good to research the area online.

2. Packaging

Take all the necessary documents, medications, and proper clothes according to the weather conditions. 

3. Prepare for living abroad

Australian, European, and American cultures are vastly different from those in India from a cultural viewpoint. The reality is that although you may be concerned about butchering the language, locals will appreciate you for adopting their culture. 

4. Hostel accommodations

Contact your university or your overseas consultant about accommodation facilities; they will often be able to help you.

5. Upon arrival

To begin, you must register with the Admissions department or Registrar department at your college/university. Enroll in Bank accounts and all the required licenses and permit to live and work where necessary. 

6. Having a bank account

Getting a bank account in the country you are studying in is recommended. It will make it easier for you to keep your money safe. 

7. Learning while earning

You can earn extra money for expenses or entertainment by working part-time in some positions called ‘blue-collar jobs.’ 

8. International student scholarships and Bank Loans

If you have questions about the funds available for your studies, you can consult your respective universities or your overseas consultants.

9. International calls

You will frequently call India when you live far from your country and people. In that case, you might ask if your current phone will work in a foreign country, and the answer is likely yes. Some countries may demand you different mobile phones due to frequencies and wavelengths

10. Traveling

The international student identity will help obtain cheap travel costs. 

These are some of the basics you should know about studying abroad. This region’s natural and cultural beauty awaits you, and I hope you will enjoy your stay.
