Study-Abroad Trends: US Is No Longer the Only Choice
A new report from The Economic Times shows Indian students are increasingly looking at destinations beyond the US for overseas education. Factors include policy uncertainty, rising costs, and shifting immigration/work-rights prospects.
Why Europe & Asia Are Gaining Traction
European countries and Asia are becoming preferred choices for Indian students thanks to lower costs, clearer post-study work rights, and more stable immigration pathways. Germany, France, the Netherlands, Singapore, and the UAE are cited as leading alternatives.
What This Means for Students & Families
For many Indian families, the question has shifted from “Which university?” to “Which country offers the best pathway to work + residency?” Your migration strategy now includes education plus long-term mobility.
