Every year, thousands of students excitedly set out on their study abroad journey. But they often lack a clear approach. Some rely on Internet research, others on personal advice from friends, or even university rankings. Regardless, at a certain point after applying or arriving abroad, it’s clear that missed deadlines, wrong courses, visa complications, poorly situated universities, and many more obstacles are common themes.

This is where professional help could have made the difference. Overseas Study Consultants in  Coimbatore such as TeamOverseas not only streamline the process, but also guide students to construct actionable, strategic decisions from day one.

What Students Realize Too Late

Students make a lot of decisions to get to the goals they would like to reach from changing majors to building experience or struggling with cost of living are often reasons students realize too late that they should have addressed the issue by consulting a professional. Here’s what many people regret not doing sooner:

1. Choosing the Wrong Course or Country

A trendy program is not always the best program for students. Often students choose courses because they are trending and not because of future potential or area of interest. Similarly, students choose countries, based on other people doing well, the realities of issues with language, climate, or finding jobs emerge over time.

2. Missing Out on Scholarships and Funding

Most students do not realize how early scholarship deadlines are and what documents are needed. Students often miss the chance to apply for significant funding because they failed to learn the timelines and documentation needed until it was too late.

3. Visa Confusion and Delays

Students often skip an entire intake (admissions and enrolment term) with simple issues that stem from visa rejections, wrong submissions, or delays. Students do not dedicate enough attention, or underestimate the detail required from the visa application process, which is a simple process for consultants with experience.

4. Overlooking Post-Study Opportunities

Students who live in countries that do not have post-study work rights or pathways to permanent residency are often frustrated later on. Their choice for study may mean their original destination state does not support what they ultimately want to accomplish (i.e., employment or immigration for the long-term).
