UNDERGRADUATE STUDIES ABROAD

The percentage of students going overseas for Undergraduate or Bachelor programmes is increasing rapidly. We at Edwise have been assisting these younger students who need more help and assistance with their application process as compared to the senior students.

Sometimes it might be cheaper to study abroad than paying huge donations charged for management seats in colleges in India.

UK : A traditionally accepted world class education destination offers qualifications and degrees that can make a real difference to your career at the undergraduate level.  A “Sandwich” year is the 3rd year when the student does a work placement before coming back to study the 4th year at University. The admission process in UK is centralized and processed  through a body called Universities & Colleges Admission Services(UCAS). Students can also study vocational & technical programs as diplomas, Certificates and foundation Degrees. These are typically 1 or 2 years. Students should contact Edwise before submitting the UCAS form direct applications.

USA is one of the favored destinations of choice for international students who wish to study UG abroad.  She offers a wide range of degrees and programs and boasts of some of the best institutions worldwide.


Scholarships upto 30,000 dollars  are available to qualified students depending upon the university and program. There is also opportunity for on-campus employment, co-op programs and internships. The undergraduate coursework nutures students through experiential education after which they either opt for jobs in the US, or pursue higher education in USA. Edwise can help you get a scholarship.

Canada: Canada's education system is excellent and ranks among the best in the world.  Canadian institutions are both public funded and private colleges which include Community colleges/Technical Institutes, Career Colleges, University Colleges or Universities.  Due to government funding the tuition fees are amongst the lowest when compared to the other countries.
