Loading

So, you’ve made up your mind to travel abroad to study? That’s fantastic! You’ve put in the hard work and efforts to get all the information that you need, you’ve done your research regarding your university and then finally studied really hard and gotten through.

But, what next? Can you just buy tickets and get there and start off? Well, unfortunately, things aren’t that simple. There are quite a few things that might come as an unexpected shocker once you settle there. You go with a certain set of ideas and believe that things will be a certain way, but they just aren’t.

What do you do then? You obviously can’t hop back into India! There’s a lot of investment that you’ve put in and it doesn’t make sense letting it go. This is where Travel Visa Insurance comes into play. Students who go to study abroad must definitely have their insurance done.

No one actively wants to get hurt, but just in case things don’t go as planned and you end up hurting yourself, you can always rely on your insurance to come through for you. There are many companies in India that offer travel visa assistance, you just have to go through your requirements and then match up the service offerings to get the right one.

So, how do you choose which one is the best for you?

Here are the major points that you should consider when you get your travel visa insurance done:

Sponsor Protection

This feature is aimed at protecting your financial investment. The Study interruption feature is essentially something that allows you to get reimbursed for the tuition fees of the college that you are going to study for the remaining period in case the sponsor of your course (education) dies. The sum insured will determine the extent of reimbursement.

Discontinued Course

In case you choose to discontinue your course due to any reason, this feature will help you get reimbursed for the fees that you have paid in advance. This is a very important feature that you must look for in insurances because it is always best to be prepared for any eventuality.

Compassionate Visit

We can’t really tell what tomorrow holds for us. In case of a medical emergency where the student needs to be hospitalized immediately in the foreign country, this feature of the insurance allows travel and accommodation expenses that a family member might incur while traveling to visit the student.

Liability and Bail Bond

It is possible that you are unfamiliar with the laws of the foreign country and end up making a mistake that puts you in hot waters with the government. An insurance plan with features that include personal liability and bail bond with protect you from such a scenario.

Medical Coverage

This is by far the most important feature that you must look for in your insurance cover. No matter which country you go to study in, it is of critical significance that you get your medical insurance done in time.

The cost of medical care in any other country is quite high. This is why most people prefer to get their insurances cleared on time. A medical cover will ensure that you can get immediate and appropriate medical assistance when you need it without having to worry about the costs that you might incur.

Who to get your insurance from?

Now this can be a tricky question. There are lots of companies in India that offer travel insurances for students however, how will you know who you should rely on and who you should avoid? Well, it’s not very difficult really.

The first and foremost thing that you must look for is the experience that a particular company has in handling students for the country that you are aiming to go to. Once you have established which seems to be the most reliable company, speak to them and get a feel of how they operate. If you get the right service, then go for it!

Pick the Best abroad consultancy in Ahmedabad

Loading

The first step to securing your admission in an overseas University is to pick the right Abroad Consultancy in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Once you do that you have already taken the first step in a smooth journey abroad and a fantastic career thereafter.

But selecting the right reputable consultancy to assist you might sound a little difficult. Let make it easy for you. Here are the following things that you should be absolutely careful about when you choose your overseas education consultants in Ahmedabad.

How old are they?

We don’t want to sound biased against new comers in the industry, but when it comes to handing over your future to someone’s guidance, it may be advisable for you to ensure that whoever you choose has some established footing in this industry.

Look for a company that has at least a decade of experience in sending students abroad for their education and jobs. A company with such a back ground will have the right kind of affiliations with different universities as well.

Number of students successfully sent

Now this number is a clear indicator of the success or credibility of a consultancy. So, if you want to check out whether the consultancy will be able to get you through or not, simply ask for their cumulative number of students that they have been able to send across.

Now, divide it by the number of years they have been established in the market and you will have the magic number that indicates their annual success rate. You can also ask them for their percentage of success. This percentage means how many students per 100 applicants they have been able to set up abroad. At Rao, our visa success ratio is over 90%. It’s hard to beat us!

Can you get a scholarship?

Let’s face it. Going abroad to study is an expensive affair. Not everyone has that kind of cash lying around at home. Some people do, and it’s great for them, but if you don’t, you definitely need a consultancy to assist you in getting a good scholarship at a university.

A good abroad education consultancy should be able to line you up and prep you for eligibility of a scholarship with any decent university you like. And if that is not materializing, the consultancy should at least be able to provide you with the right assistance in order to apply for educational and overseas loans at fair interest rates. At Rao, we ensure that you don’t end up burning a hole in your pocket.

Preparing your move

Is the college the only thing that you need to worry about? Not really. There are a thousand things that are associated with a move as big as the one that you plan for yourself. You don’t just need to think about getting admissions and getting a visa, you also have to worry about your preparation.

Look for a reputable consultancy that will hold your hand right from the first step till you are safely enjoying your first day at your University. Every country has a different requirement for Visa. Every University has a different eligibility. There are a few important Common tests for entrances like GRE, GMAT, IELTS, TOEFL and more.

A consultancy should be able to train you, examine you and finally ensure that you pass out with flying colors. The higher your score is, the higher is your probability to get into the best colleges and get a scholarship.

Choose Wisely

You don’t make these decisions every day. One mistake can make the whole process of moving abroad not only arduous but also a bitter memory. Choose expert professionals who have done this for thousands of students.

When they handle your application, they will know exactly what the best thing to do for you is. We, at Rao, treat all our applicants as family. We put your interest at the top and ensure that your overall experience of moving abroad for studies is so seamless that you promote and encourage others to pursue their dreams in this direction as well.

If you are hesitant and confused about which abroad consultancy in Ahmedabad, Gujarat should you approach, search a little wisely. Shortlist at least 2 consultancies and speak to their counselors. Meeting them personally will help you take the final call. Make sure when you meet them, you ask them all your queries and view their previous records.

Go through their website online and see for yourself what the statistics indicate. This is your life and no one can take a better decision that you will. So, be calm and collected and think wisely. Once you have taken the decision just stick to it! A little perseverance and dedication will get you where you want to be!
