7 Quick and Handy Tips to Make Cultural Adjustment Easier While Studying Abroad

Studying Abroad comes with some responsibility on the student's part. As you will be living and functioning within another culture, it is important that you keep in mind the local cultural norms. This might influence the way you dress, the way you speak, and the way you interact with the locals. It is important for travelers to practice sensitivity throughout their journeys, as your behaviour may otherwise offend others unnecessarily or bring a bad name upon all travelers.

Here are Some of The Tips to Make Cultural Adjustments Easier:-

• Your Experience :-

Reflection on time spent abroad is one of the most important elements in making the experience worthwhile. It is possible to spend months abroad without breaking out gaining intercultural competence. Think about your goals before you go and spend time each week writing privately, talking with a new friend, or documenting in creative ways what you’ve been experiencing.

• Engage Yourself :-

Saying so, the more you are on the internet, the less you are part of the local community. The more your thoughts are with people and events back home, the less you will understand the nuances of your immediate environment. So, it is advisable to spend time with the locals to feel at home.

• Cultivate Humility :-

Listening to what people have to say, and assuming that there are logical reasons why people do things the way they do, can go a long way towards creating positive relationships across cultures. Being willing to concede that your way of operating in the world is just one of many valid ways can make your encounters with different ideas and people.

• Embrace Opportunity :-

Street music, local team sports, family visits, religious services, fish markets, political rallies, and impromptu dance parties are all potentially fascinating experiences, but ones you will certainly miss by not actively participating in your community abroad.

• Don't Be Judgemental :-

One of the characteristics of moving from one culture to another is irritation with what appears to be the absurdities of local practice. Keeping an open mind is one of the best strategies for a productive and enjoyable time abroad. Of course, these are not absurdities, but cultural differences – to be observed, examined, understood, and ultimately even appreciated.

• Be a Good Observer :-

It can be extremely useful to write down a brief account of interactions or behaviours you find puzzling and then ask someone local for help in decoding what you’ve seen, as it can spark really enlightening conversations.Done in the context of journal writing, it can also form a record that you can revisit in the future when the details of your experience are beginning to blur. Cultivating the habit of observing the ordinary is surely one of the most useful ways to affect our own behaviour when abroad and recognize how much we take for granted in our own local and national culture.

• Adjustments :-

As you develop a routine abroad and accomplish the goals you set out for yourself, see if you recognize yourself in one or more of the common phases of cultural adjustment. Students encounter a wide range of adjustment processes abroad. You might cycle through these phases at different times, not necessarily in linear fashion. If you have no feelings of discomfort whatsoever, you might consider whether you are actually making an effort to interact with people in your new environment.

5 Mistakes Indians Make While Applying For Overseas Education

More and more Indians are opting for study abroad these days as it has better prospects and greater number of opportunities considering the future of the candidate. Choosing a country to study in and a program are the most crucial decisions the candidate has to take care of in order to avoid problems.

Here Are Some Tips To Help You Avoid The Most Common Mistakes While Applying for Study Abroad.

• Inadequate Research :-

Students are in so much hurry to go abroad that often they ignore a lot of basic but crucial information related to the program they are applying for or the university or institution they would choose. Always prepare a set of questions pertaining to your areas of interests. Gather as much information as possible of the program you are applying for by asking these sample questions.

• Is this the right program for me?
• Does this program have as much value it has in the host country as in any other country?
• What different contents are there for the same program in different institutions or universities?

• Feeble Financial Planning :-

This is one of the most important factors to be given serious attention to. In a way, it is the soul of your whole study abroad dream. Feeble financial planning definitely leads severe reverberations down the line.

Accumulate all the information related to student loans, tuition fees and other expenses. This will help you to sort out a number of insipient issues in advance. Good money management skills will help you in saving extra money and ease the pressure. It will also help you in finding a suitable part time work, which will supplement your finances.

• Incomplete Application Form :-

More than 70% of the applications are rejected because a student has failed to attach all the necessary documents with the application form. Make sure that you've filled all the necessary information in the form and also double check all the required documents that need to be sent with the application form. Prepare a check list to help you with this process. Ensure that all the documents and paperwork is in the format as expected by the institution/school. Don't forget to include your test scores and application fee.

• Wrong College Name in the SOP :-

It has been widely observed that many students write an SOP and change the name of the college for different applications. You should always prepare a separate SOP for each institution you are planning to apply to and also make sure that the correct name appears in the essay wherever it is required. It will not look good at all if the admissions manager finds a different name of college in the application essay.

Get your essays proofread by atleast 3-4 people before think about sending it to the institution. Rereading and rechecking can help you to avoid such a silly mistake.

• Fabricating Credentials on the Application :-

Most of the students are aware of the fact that falsifying qualification on the application is a serious offence, but still there are some who tend to falsify their grades in the application to get admitted to the desired university. Fudging ones information while filing an application to study abroad should be avoided at all costs as it can ruin any reliable credibility the applicant may have, and possibly bar them from studying in a foreign country.

Myths and Facts about Studying Abroad

Due to these misconceptions, thousands of dreams are shattered every year as the students step back and stop trying to get into top foreign universities to complete their higher education. When it comes to a foreign education, a lot of false information reaches potential students that projects an alternate reality and causes them to make uninformed life-altering decisions. Instead of listening to heresy or rumours, it is best to get information from an official or authentic source.

Here are myths and the facts about studying abroad:-

• Expensive:-

Education abroad is typically higher than education in India, no doubt. The cost will vary depending upon factors like the university, location, and duration of the program. If you plan your finances well, your education will not seem like a burden. Play cautious and avoid redundant expenses by being minimalistic, and practical. In addition, you can take up on-campus jobs, teaching assistance, research assistance, or other work to supplement your income. The icing here is that by working part time, you also gain valuable work experience. After completing your education, you get an opportunity to work abroad with some high profile, leading companies. In most cases, students manage to pay off their EMI or education loans in the first few years of joining their new job.

• Not Safe:-

With so much happening around the world, like rising instances of terrorism worldwide, there is a common fear and concern among parents about sending their children abroad to study. International universities too understand the concern for safety and have strict protocols and measures in place to ensure safety of students at all time. Moreover they also run intensive crash courses, offer handbooks and have special orientation sessions for international students to help them acquaint them with the alien place and new culture.

• Communicating With Foreigners:-

In most foreign colleges, English is the spoken language and also the medium of instruction. However, before applying, take a look at language pre-requisites or criteria prescribed by your university. Before commencing your course, you can expose yourself to audios that help you understand foreign language accents, speech modulation, and foreign tongue. Take this as an opportunity to a new language or different English in a foreign country is an immense opportunity to enhance your linguistic proficiency. The most effective and fastest way to language learning is to acquire it in a natural context. Furthermore, you will attain near native fluency in English that would enrich your communication skills.

• Not Returning to Homeland:-

Studying overseas goes beyond academics and hones your skills and personality. It helps you get out of the comfort zone and adapt to a different culture. Studying abroad is an excellent opportunity to grow both professionally and personally. With its practice-based learning, world-class academics and facilities, career-focused courses, and a global student community, pursuing higher studies overseas opens a world of opportunities for you. That apart working part-time while you study further helps you learn invaluable life skills. It helps you understand and discover yourself, your culture and your career in an altogether new perspective while offering you several opportunities, both at home and globally. There are many successful entrepreneurs who graduated from top-tier business schools overseas, yet chose to return to India and start their entrepreneurial ventures.

• Indian Students Get Neglected:-

At colleges, professors are more like mentors than teachers; very approachable to help students resolve issues related to academics or otherwise. The education culture in foreign universities is based on the ideology of unhindered learning and creating a conductive educational ambience. They believe that for effective learning in no way should students feel threatened. You must know that hundreds, if not thousands of Indians have gone abroad much before your time, and have gained immensely. They are very welcoming.

• It’s all about Party and Fun:-

It’s about studying, learning and building valuable skills. There is no doubt that some students’ view studying abroad as a vacation, going just to party, drink with other students. It expands personal horizons while opening up a world of personal and professional opportunities. Although it should be fun, it’s also a serious undertaking that will challenge students on a personal level and have an impact on their academic career. Studying abroad includes taking classes, preferably taught by local professors on locally-relevant subjects — and in the local language if possible. Students will learn about different education systems and ways of teaching. They will find themselves challenging their own ideas and beliefs once they’ve had a chance to experience an alternate perspective.

• Employers do not value Foreign Degree:-

Employers are always looking out for diversity in the organization which is why they strongly focus on cross-culture promotion. Employers will always value your foreign degree, provided you can prove them that you have the required skills that the organization is looking for. The organization will be interested to see how your foreign degree can help in their profit and long-run.

• Profiling

Participation in extracurricular activities displays a candidate's strength and capabilities, and so when applying to a degree abroad, one must be sure to include these activities. Additionally universities also look to other factors such as a candidate's academic record, eminent leadership qualities, overall personality development and financial stability. Edwise assists in selecting universities that are deemed appropriate for you, by taking into account your academic, personal and financial aspects, thereby customizing every individual's career path to meet candidate requirements.

• Field of interest

An increasing number of students today pursue a degree based on a decision made by their parents or influenced by their fellow peers. While the confusion is understandable, it is vital for every individual to know where their interests lie. For this purpose, Edwise has designed the Academic Pathway Planning Program, a process which not only makes candidates aware of their strengths and weaknesses, but also defines their likes and dislikes. This way students are able to choose a course program based on their choice and preferences.

• Gathering your documents

Every university has certain prerequisites that are needed at the time of seeking admission. Some universities may require you to submit your academic and standardized test scores at the earliest, while others may require essays, recommendation letters and other documents. Our team of counselors guide you on the necessary requirements, and ensure that you submit an application that is well presented and error free.

• Keeping an open mind

Studying abroad is more than just traveling to a new country, it marks the beginning of a new journey. While living in a new country allows you to embrace change and develops a sense of cultural understanding, you'll be surprised at how much you are able to learn by just observing life in another country. Edwise fulfils the needs of those looking for an overseas education, and helps students get the most out of their study abroad experience.
