As the level of competition keeps increasing, we’re sure that you’re doing everything it takes to get into the top schools out there. If your goal is to make it to the top university of your choice, then, believe it or not, it takes a lot more than just solid grades.
Studying abroad is a popular choice today, so how does one stand out in this crowded space? The simplest answer to that could be to attend education fairs!
We’ve got some really big education fairs coming in this season such as the Global Education Fair. Here are a few reasons why you should sign up for one of these right away:
Quality guidance from Admission Officers
The top schools of the world out there witness a huge wave of applicants every year and so do their Admission Directors. Education fairs give you an opportunity to interact with these very Admission Directors. Talking to them will help you develop a stronger understanding of the elements that are considered important during the admission process, along with understanding what the admission team is looking for, so that you can craft a winning application A conversation with them will also give you great insight on the school and help you decide which ones are the best fit for you.
Usually, small group meetings are conducted, but some education fairs such as the Global Education Fair give participants the opportunity to hold one-on-one minute meetings with the officials and even get spot admission offers! No we’re not kidding!
Learn more from Study Abroad Consultants and Test instructors
These events have consultants and instructors of entrance tests like GMAT/GRE/SAT, etc. to help you strategize and improve the quality of your preparation along with your score. Instructors not only teach you ways to reach your maximum potential, but they also evaluate your profile and help you recognize your strength & weakness as an applicant. We feel that it’s always better to remain open-minded towards some expert guidance as it churns out the best in you and could be the difference between getting an admit or not. And why not to, especially when it comes for free?
Meeting the alumni
With schools coming in from all over the world, they’re usually represented by school officials and alumni. While it’s important to gather clarity and understanding regarding the application process and the programme from the school officials, the alumni give you valuable information which cannot be found anywhere else. They’ve already completed the journey you are about to begin. This is your chance to get answers to all your concerns, be it regarding academic pressure, housing, future job opportunities or even about the best hangout spots within the campus.
Pro tip: Quoting these conversations in your application or interview can even add brownie points to your profile as the school feels you have done your homework and can see that you are genuinely interested in them.
Finance your way to the top – Scholarships
Being an Indian, paying international tuition fee is always a bit stressful and that is another reason you’d want to attend one of these education fairs. You might enter the fair with an empty wallet, but you could be taking back home an enormous scholarship. The Global Education Fair is not just providing spot admissions but even scholarships! Just carry all your documents with you and get access to scholarships worth millions! If not a scholarship, talking to the experts there, along with alumni and fellow applicants will help you understand various financing options which you may have never even considered before. You can even explore various work+study programs, another way to manage costs better. These will definitely make your study abroad dreams an easier reality.
Everybody is a winner here
The coolest thing about attending one of these education fairs would be that besides all the learning and academic growth, no one ever really leaves empty-handed. From gift vouchers to the opportunity to attend fun workshops, there’s always a winning moment at these events. The Global Education Fair has something for everyone. You maybe an MBBS student, a starry eyed undergrad or and engineering or MBA aspirant you’re bound to leave atleast one step closer to your goal!
