80,000 Nepali students have taken an NOC to study in a foreign university since the last one year

As per latest reports, around 80,000 Nepali students have taken a No Objection Certificate to study in foreign universities from July 2022 to March 2023. This data is indicative of the rising trend in Nepal for studying abroad. The foreign study permit branch from Nepal has said that around 600 students in Nepal apply for study abroad every day. Out of these 600 students, on an average 500 students get their permits approved.

Many of the students are not aware about the proper deadlines and dates to apply for NOC. The branch has stated that since the time they have informed all the candidates about the particular time and date, the number of students applying has decreased. For the convenience of these people, the branch is also providing them with free Wi-Fi. The branch has been consistently working to make sure that most of the NOC requests are looked and sanctioned within a day or two of application deposit.
