What Not To Do When Studying Abroad?

Studying Abroad can be a thrilling idea, but it has its own set of challenges. Often it is not the educational hurdles but the challenges of settling down in a new society that require the biggest adjustment. From mingling with new people and adjusting to a new lifestyle to finding part time job and managing studies, you have to make a transition before you can get used to the new culture and people.

Given below are the few Don'ts of studying abroad:-

• Don't be Anti-social :-

Living in a foreign country can make you vulnerable. As you are not familiar with people and situations of the country, you need to be careful while making new friends. Whether your class fellow gets humorous or whether you take training tips from a gym mate, it is important to keep a decent distance until you get familiar with the person.

• Don't mess with your Academics :-

Always take your studies abroad seriously and dedicate most of your time to your academic commitments. A few institutions give only pass/fail credits, which imply that you need a C or better to even pass, whereas others calculate your international grades into your GPA. Attend your classes on time, participate in class, and do not miss exams.

• Don't be Homesick :-

Don’t miss out on opportunities because of homesickness. Do everything you can in the amount of time you are abroad. Conquer phobias, chance on making new relationships, and stick your neck out wherever possible. Don't hold back.

• Don't Indulge in Bad Habits :-

Now that you are abroad, you will meet new people and get invited to parties and social gatherings. At a party, there is a possibility that you may be offered alcoholic beverages. Sometimes, exchange students believe that it is part of the culture, so they want to immerse themselves in this new way of life and feel accepted among their peers. Drinking to excess is not a good idea. It is understandable that you want to fit in but it should not be at any cost. You might put yourself at risk and it is not worth it. The best piece of advice is to be reasonable and responsible.

• Don't Forget your Documents :-

Imagine you reach the airport check-in only to find that you have forgotten your passport and ticket back home. Having such drastic experiences on the day of your departure can have effects on your mood. Besides, you would not want to miss your classes as a result of any such futile delay. Therefore, it is important that you keep all important documents in your suitcase a day before your departure. It is also a good idea to have copies of them.

Study Abroad Options for Commerce Students after 12th

Commerce, despite the growing number of engineering colleges in the country, is a popular subject choice among students. Across the different boards of education in India, the Commerce group in higher secondary schools includes papers in Accountancy, Business Studies, Economics, Business Maths, English and the regional language. This opens up a whole world of undergraduate degree options for students. Students who wish to enter the Humanities or the Liberal Arts can choose from Literature to Drama and History to Music and much more.

Just a couple of decades ago, Indian students who aspired to study abroad looked only towards engineering, medicine, and law. The courses offered abroad were not just costly but not aligned with our education system here. However, things have changed considerably since then. With the progress of education and availability of various scholarships opportunities & loans, students are now exploring options beyond the traditional favourites. Nowadays, we see many students opting for undergraduate education in Commerce, Accountancy, and Management in top universities abroad.

There are a number of universities all around the world offering degree and diploma programs in the above fields related to commerce.

• USA:-

The USA is always the first choice for the Indian students who want to go study abroad after 12th commerce. After completing your 12th commerce, you can go for undergraduate programs like Bachelor of Commerce, Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting & Finance, Bachelor’s Degree in Financial Markets, Bachelor’s Degree in Banking and Insurance, Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration, Bachelor’s Degree in Management Science, etc. Courses like Bachelors in Business Administration (BBA) offer a generalized approach towards business studies, focusing largely on interdisciplinary courses and accounting, human resources, humanities and social science, math and so on. While opting for technical and in-depth Bachelors in Science (BS) degree in business, one must keep in mind the emphasis on mathematical technicalities and further specializations.

• UNITED KINGDOM:-

The United Kingdom has the longest history of providing education to the world’s greatest thinkers, leaders as well as artists. The Universities are well known and reputed to have taught for a hundred of years across Scotland, England, Wales, and Ireland. It offers varied degree courses, programs and other qualifications that can make a real difference to your career prospects at the undergraduate level.

Commerce opens up a whole world of undergraduate degree alternatives. Certain degrees in the UK have made mandatory provisions for the students to work in the industry for a year. These degrees are referred to as the Sandwich Programmes. The admission process for the UK degree program is organized and dealt with by UCAS, which has its own deadline.

• AUSTRALIA:-

There are many reasons why students are selecting Australia as their study abroad destination. Some of these are the low cost of living, exceptional lifestyle, a relatively good climate and of course world-class education. Also, it is a known fact that Australia makes huge investments into the education sector. No wonder it is the third leading study abroad destination just after the USA and the UK.

• CANADA:-

The Canadian Universities has an excellent education system that ranks among the best in the world. It will provide you with the internationally recognized degrees as well as various diploma programs. The Indian students wanting to pursue higher education in Canada can either go for any 2/3-year Diploma program or a 4-year Bachelor Degree in the field of Commerce. Higher education in Canada does come with some additional perks. You can even work part-time while you’re studying. Thus, the Canadian Universities offers exceptional education, affordable tuition fees, a chance to work while you study after you graduate along with a great lifestyle in a diverse country.

• NEW ZEALAND:-

New Zealand with its friendly visa policies allowing one-year extension to secure a job after graduation is gaining in popularity among Indian students. New Zealand is also among the top 10 international destinations for the students who want to pursue graduation in the field of Commerce after their intermediate. Being an attractive destination for the Indian students, New Zealand is well known for its educational institutions throughout the world.

How Studying Abroad Helps you Launch your Career

Studying abroad is an exciting prospect, which is full of new places, people and adventures and a completely unfamiliar land. 

But what if you're more strategic in your decision to study abroad? Achieving that graduate job is a worthy goal to have in mind and study abroad experience can prove crucial to your future career. 

If you are planning to move across continents for your study abroad, the process of adapting to unfamiliar social, cultural and professional environments could make the key difference in your future profession.

• Becoming more independent :-

When you go away from your home country, you would leave a lot of support systems that you always relied on consciously or subconsciously. And at your study destination you would be forced to solve all the problems by yourself. Whether it's figuring out how to sign up for classes when your new university's registration system crashes, or registering with a local doctor, to making a meal from scratch without familiar ingredients. You’ll be constantly forced to take the initiative and solve problems. 

This newly developed attitude will help you in your new job when you would be asked to finish a task independently and will allow you to prove your confidence in your abilities.

• Language and Culture :-

Having an opportunity to live in a foreign country and perfecting another language are some of the biggest merits of studying abroad, particularly if you're from the east and studying in the west. Companies are more interested in employing candidates who are familiar with both eastern and western culture and language.

English is the main trading language of the world, and being able to speak English can really make the difference when employers are short-listing for jobs. It might be unfair that command of a language can have such a huge effect on your potential success in business, but that’s the way it is and – as the English say – if you can’t beat them, join them. Cultural knowledge is something that can be underestimated by many students and professionals, but is nevertheless immensely important to businesses.

• Better Employability :-

It is well known that studying abroad is great for graduate employability. From gaining fluency in a foreign language or earning a specialized qualification, to mastering soft skills, your decision to study abroad will definitely strengthen your resume. 

You might also have an opportunity to gain practical work experience during or after your studies, depending on your visa status and the country you are studying in, you might be able to take a part-time or full-time job or internship.

• Higher Earnings :-

Studying abroad not only helps you in finding a better job after completing your graduation but it also helps you in getting higher starting salary than those who did not study abroad. The recent surveys into earnings revealed that those who finished their studies abroad earned around $7000 more annually than those who did not go for international study.

• New Skills :-

Career benefits for those who study abroad go beyond higher salaries and faster job placement. Those who study abroad learn new skills and have a better ability to adapt in rapidly-changing work environments and to respond to people of diverse cultural backgrounds, both of which lead to better workplace performance. 

A number of studies and surveys concluded that 80% of their alumni felt that study abroad experience gave them valuable skills to survive better in the modern job market and also opened a lot of new job opportunities.

To be absolutely sure, yo can also check with the admissions office of the University to confirm your child's position in their institution.

• HEALTH AND SAFETY:

The two biggest concerns of parents about their ward living abroad is their health and safety. To circumvent this problem, it is advisable to find out about the climate and weather conditions of the place where the child is headed. That way, you can be prepared as to what to expect upon arrival. Another good option is to be aware of the medical clinics and facilities as well as hospitals in and around the University so as to be prepared in case of an emergency. Another measure that should be taken is to be aware of the vaccinations that your child needs to take that are required in the visiting country. Taking said vaccines would ensure that your child is immunized against possible contractions in case of any.

• COMMUNICATION:

Last but not the least, the most sure fire way for a parent to be at ease with their child in a different country is to have a flawless communication system in place. The technological advances of the 21st century have made this quite simple with multiple audio as well as video calling applications. All you need to do is have a phone or a computer which supports any of the n number of applications available online and a strong internet connection on both ends. Stay in touch with your child, but don't unnecessarily harangue them with calls to ease your paranoia as they would be following a different time zone plus they would be following a routine which would revolve around their University requirements.
