A new study has revealed that over half the students start searching for international universities six months before their study abroad journey begins. Only 29% of the students start searching for study abroad universities, 6 to 12 months before the study abroad journey begins. Only 10% of the students start looking for universities, 12 to 14 months before the study abroad journey begins. It is important for international students to understand that the process of selecting your dream university and course takes a lot of time. Following the university and course selection, accommodation has to be selected as well. Generally when students start looking for universities, it is already very late and the deadlines are near. This also decreases the chances of acceptance.
