Tips for applying to a college:
Decide the country first, if it is US of A then u have to sit and spend hours on the internet or get hold of a good counselor who will then help narrow down your choices to 5 colleges,
to appear for TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language)try and get a date when TWE (Test of Written English)is also held.
3.depending upon Undergraduate studies or postgraduate studies you then also have to appear for SAT’s or GRE (if science background) GMAT (if commerce), you can send your scores to the five selected uni’s for the application process to start. (US DOESNNT RECOGNIZE ANY INDIAN UNIVERSITIES EXCEPT MS UNIVERSITY BARODA.
IF you choose a country in the Commonwealth - AUSTRALIA, NZ, then your current scores (CBSE ?STATE BOARDS or University will suffice).
But an IELTS exam is required (IELTS is held by the British Council Library) in several cities across India in a month.
EDUCATION FARIS ARE A GOOD PLACE TO COLLECT BROCHURES:-
There are fairs held annualy for all of these countries where a lot of institutions recruit students.
Unfortunately you appear to have missed them as the UK, CANDIAN US Fairs took place in Feb and the Australian in April 2nd week.
NZ is due to arrive soon.
Please let me know if this helps let me know the country to which you want to apply to and your past academic record. I can help you with every stage as this is my full time job Counseling and Recruiting Students for Studies Abraod.
ABOVE ALL CHECK THE FACULTY THAT WILL DELIVER THE COURSE DONT GO BY REPUTATION
More the faculty is studded with Ph.Ds and research the better it is as they are the ones who teach you.
SO choose wisely as it is a matter of your career and your money (lots of it)
