  2. Introduction As a parent or a student, the decision for choosing any institute or university outside of your home country is indeed an important one. Making the right choice can be the differentiator between the right career move or the not-so-exciting career move. It’s one of the key reasons why study in India for foreign students is rising. Internationally as well, these factors are beginning to get more recognition. The QS rankings analyze cities based on six composite performance indicators: affordability, desirability, student mix, rankings, employer activity and student view, ranks Mumbai and Delhi into its slot of top 100 best cities for students, marked at 85th and 86th position respectively.

  3. Admission Requirements Even as Indian government has created scope for 15% extra seats for NRI and foreign students; students of foreign origin or NRIs are not eligible to sit for many of the national level entrance tests which strictly govern admission criteria for many institutes. So, it is best to know in detail about the admission criteria, cut offs and other details before short listing institutes to apply to. Important to check – and plan a year in advance

  4. Ranking & Affiliations Indian higher education system comes under UGC (University Grants Commission) that forms the administrative structure governing education system and marks its national potency. It is important to look out for universities and colleges which are affiliated by either of the central or state universities, or have been granted autonomy by the UGC, and hold an A+ grading from UGC.

  5. Curriculum & Course Most of the colleges in India follow curriculum set up the Central and State universities they are affiliated with; only in case of autonomous and deemed university they can decide their own curriculum. In any case, it is important to understand the scope of course, it’s learning benefits, and the curriculum before applying for it.

  6. Faculty support A good institution is a reflection of its faculty. While choosing an institute it is important to take note of the faculty-student ratio; total number of full time faculty and more importantly qualifications of the faculty. A majority of Ph.D and Masters Degree holders are preferred over diploma and graduates teachers.

  7. Infrastructure Infrastructure that an institute offers is not binding of its physical structure but also includes the facilities and support provisions included like- library, computers, internet provisions, R&D support, sports, hostel facilities and more day to day interventions.

  8. Accommodation For international students coming to India for study purpose, it is imperative to look in for favorable accommodation options. These need to be safe, clean, accessible, and within minimum distance of their institute/college where they are seeking admissions. Many universities provide special accommodation to foreign students/NRIs, it is best to opt for college provided stay as the first preference.

  9. Conclusion India is on the right path towards internationalization of its education infrastructure- benchmarking international learning standards; working towards research and innovation; forming international tie-ups; building global campuses; working towards corporate inclusions; and creating holistic learning support systems. Thus, while choosing institutes to apply to while studying in India it is imperative for international students to look beyond affordability and focus on learning interventions that will help them towards securing their professional goals and aspirations. In the last decade itself, India has churned out several global CEOs of great success and repute. This stands as a testimony to the learning curve achieved in India through any of its streams. The inherent advantage of huge diversity is a great enabler for young minds, the open environment that encourages debate and research combined with a sharp focus on meritorious faculty is what has been a big benefit for students from Indian institutions. With the cost of living and tuition fees still very affordable, perhaps it is the right time to study in India.
