Step-By-Step Guide To Study Abroad

  1. Do your Own Research:
    Do your own research! Investigate courses, universities and their locations. Look up on the teaching modules, research opportunities, campus life and employment prospects before you finalise your selection. You can ask your friends and family or reach out to the alumni of universities you are interested in for a wider perspective. Use Facebook or LinkedIn to reach out to them more effectively. Also, do remember to include your budget and available scholarships as a part of your research.

We understand researching can be an exhausting process, but we can help here. Come to your nearest Onebounce office for a free counselling session and we’ll guide you to your career path.

 

  1. Speak with one of our Onebounce counsellors:
    When you’re ready, make an appointment with an Onebounce counsellor. Our counsellors are professionally certified and many have been international students themselves. They’re a friendly face with the wealth of first-hand professional and personal experience from different study locations all over the world.

Bring your wish list and course preferences along with you to your appointment as a starting point. Your counsellor will work through all the big and small details to ensure the best possible fit between you, your future university and your area of study.

If you need to take an English test to qualify for your course, practice hard to get good grades. In a test such as IELTS, it is important to be grammatically sound besides having a wide range of vocabulary. You can join our intensive IELTS coaching to make your university acceptance chances more better. Our British Council certified IELTS trainers will make you Grammatically and Vocabulary wise  more stronger.

    Once your application is received, the university or school will assess it thoroughly and notify you of the result. It can take up to a few weeks (It depends on the universty) for your application to be processed.

If your application is successfully selected, you’ll receive an offer letter and an acceptance letter. Before you accept the offer, go through it carefully with your counsellor to check for any conditions that may apply and deadline to accept the offer letter and to pay the deposit amount to secure your seat with the university.

If you are accepted for more than one course or school, your counsellor will help you decide on the best option for you according to your interest of subject, location preference, financial budget and post study work visa opportunities for secured future.

The cost will vary from city to city. If you opt to rent an apartment, you will have to additionally pay for utility bills like electricity, internet, water usage and also tenant’s insurance (in some areas of housing).

Do check for the entry requirements in your host country and for baggage allowance fees. While booking a flight just inform the airlines that you are travelling on a student visa so that you get to carry more luggage than usual limits.
