India has become one of the biggest markets for various countries when it comes to global education. Most of the top study abroad destinations like the US and Canada receive Indian students in abundance every year. In fact, in many of these countries, Indian students make up the largest group of international students from a particular country. Today we will talk about some common factors that Indian students consider before moving abroad and choosing an international university.
First of all, like all other students from different countries, Indian students also go through the bandwagon effect where they choose the country that is currently popular among other students. This means that the final decision for Indian students is between the US and Canada.
Over the period of time, Indian students have enrolled themselves in STEM programmes, which is why Germany has also become another favourite study abroad destination among Indian students.
Around 45% of the Indian students who want to move abroad have shown keen interest in exploring other unconventional study abroad destinations as well.
Around 67% of Indian students are open to the idea of blended learning where some of the lectures or semesters can be attended in the universities in self and the others can be completed by sitting at home.
Indian students also give a lot of weightage to the after study work opportunities and it plays a major role in their final decision making process.
