🎓 7 things you should research BEFORE choosing a university
Choosing a university is about more than just its ranking or reputation.
Before adding a university to your list, make sure you check these 7 things 👇
1. 🎓 Your major & courses
Check what exactly you’ll study. Look at the curriculum, required courses and electives.
2. 💰 Scholarships & financial aid
Does the university offer scholarships for international students? Are they merit-based, need-based, or both?
3. 🌎 International student opportunities
Look for exchange programs, international communities, study abroad opportunities and support for international students.
4. 📊 Admission requirements
Check GPA requirements, IELTS/TOEFL, SAT/ACT, essays, recommendations and other application materials.
5. 🏠 Cost of living
Tuition isn't the only expense. Research accommodation, food, transportation and other living costs.
6. 🔬 Research & extracurricular opportunities
Does the university offer research programs, student organizations, competitions, internships or leadership opportunities?
7. 💼 Career opportunities
Check internships, career services, employment opportunities and where graduates usually go after university.
✨ Remember:
A university being highly ranked doesn't automatically mean it's the right university for you.
The best university is the one that fits your goals, interests, budget and academic profile.
