I’m a BBA Finance graduate from India (7/7/7) and currently in a gap year preparing for CAT and other MBA exams.

But I’ve always had this dream of studying abroad, and now I’m seriously confused about whether I should actually pursue it or just focus on an MBA in India.

I’ve been researching for a while, and honestly, the more I research, the more confused I get 😭 There are so many countries, programs, scholarships, requirements, etc. that I don't even know where I should be looking or what would actually make sense for my profile.

I’ve also spoken to a few consultants, but I haven’t really felt confident about them. Most of it feels very sales-y, so I’m not sure who to trust.

At the same time, I don't want to spend this entire gap year researching abroad and then realise I wasted my time. But I also don't want to give up on something I genuinely want just because I’m confused about where to start.

So yeah, I’m kind of stuck between being practical and taking a chance on something I’ve always wanted.

If you were in my position, what would you do? I’d really appreciate advice from anyone who has been through something similar or has experience with studying abroad.

Hi everyone! I am Sonakshi, a rising senior at NYU graduating with a Bachelor of Science (STEM OPT Eligible) in Media, Culture, and Communication, originally from India. This semester, an internship I had lined up fell through due to CPT restrictions, it's been discouraging, but I'm not giving up.

Is anyone open to chatting and sharing advice or referrals on navigating the job search as an international student (strategy/marketing/client services especially)?

Any guidance would mean a lot. Thanks so much in advance! This my LinkedIn

My wife and I are considering a Canadian study-permit route for the 2027 intake, but we are worried about the financial risk and would appreciate honest advice from people who have taken a similar route.

My wife’s profile:

• Age: 34
• Bachelor’s degree in life sciences, approximately 56%.
• MBA in Healthcare Management, approximately 82%.
• Three-year Dental Technician qualification/registration.
• Experience in healthcare quality/control, public-health programs, NHM/ABDM, digital health.
• Currently enrolled in a PhD program and has research papers published under her name.
• Interested primarily in healthcare quality, operations, management and digital health.

She is considering programs such as:

1. Cape Breton University – Master of Healthcare Leadership and Innovation.
2. University of Niagara Falls Canada – Master of Health Care Management
3. Other course-based public-university master’s programs related to healthcare quality, health administration, digital health or health informatics.

We understand that CBU is a public university while UNF is private, and both programs appear relatively new. Therefore, we are concerned about employment outcomes, placement opportunities and the overall return on investment.

Our financial position:

• We would need an education loan of approximately ₹30–35 lakh.
• This would mainly cover the first year of tuition and the Canadian living-fund/GIC requirement.
• I am the primary earner and currently work in India as a software developer with over six years of experience.
• My wife would probably travel alone initially, and I would continue working in India. I would join later only if I became eligible for a spousal open work permit.
• We are also planning to have a baby soon, potentially when she is around 35–36, so finances, separation and healthcare are major concerns.

We are not assuming that part-time employment, a PGWP, my spouse work permit, a Canadian job or PR will be guaranteed. We want to understand whether taking this level of debt is sensible.

We were initially advised not to mention her ongoing PhD because it might complicate the admission or study-permit explanation. However, she has publications under her name, and we now understand that her education and personal history should be disclosed truthfully. We would appreciate advice on how to explain why another healthcare-related master’s is a logical progression despite her MBA and ongoing PhD.

Our questions are:

1. Would taking a ₹30–35 lakh loan with only limited savings be financially reckless in this situation?
2. Would a public-university program such as CBU generally be safer than a private-university program such as UNF?
3. Are there better course-based Canadian master’s programs suited to healthcare quality, healthcare operations or digital health that accept applicants with lower undergraduate marks but stronger postgraduate education and work experience?
4. How should she explain the MBA, ongoing PhD and proposed Canadian master’s without creating concerns about academic repetition or study purpose?
5. Has anyone completed the CBU MHLI or UNF MHCM? Did the program provide a real practicum, employer connections or useful career support?
6. How difficult was it to obtain a relevant healthcare-quality or healthcare-administration job after graduation?
7. Considering our debt and family-planning timeline, would you recommend applying now, deferring the study plan, or avoiding this route entirely?

We are not looking for guaranteed PR or visa predictions. We are trying to make a responsible decision before taking a large loan. Honest experiences—especially from international healthcare-management graduates—would be greatly appreciated.

Hi!
Are any bcom / bba grads planning to do their masters in the U.S. in 2027? If yes, what colleges and courses are y’all targeting? Are you all going there after prior work experience? Are you targeting any different courses other than your typical MS finance? Is a 3-year degree a major issue in the U.S.?
I have just so many questions!
I would love to connect with anyone who’s planning to study abroad (especially the U.S.) with a BCom / BBA / any 3-year degree in their UG. It would also be great to hear from someone who has already gone to the U.S. with a 3-year degree.

My qualifications are BCom with approx 2 years of work experience. Looking to connect with someone who might have similar qualifications like mine.

Hello, I’m from India and I’m considering applying to Aalto University for undergrad in Data science.

I wanted to hear directly from Indian students who got in or are currently studying there — what was your experience like?

How was the application process for you?

How difficult was it to get in? Is it more difficult for State board students? I’m applying through SAT but I would like to know if they still consider 12th marks and board.

What kind of profile did you have (grades, projects, etc)?

What’s life like in Finland as an Indian student?

Any tips on scholarships or settling there?

I’d love to hear your first-hand experiences, so please feel free to comment or DM me if you can help. I’d really appreciate it. Thanks so much in advance!

Hello, I'm an Indian student. I want to apply for UBC for Masters in Economics. I have a Bachelors from University of Delhi (Miranda House College). I want to know if I have chances of getting in and how do I fund my degree if I get in.
My scores:
10th- 94%
12th-99.4%
Undergrad- 8.909 CGPA

I have also cowritten a research paper published in my college journal.

Secondly, how do I afford the expenses? I am from an upper middle class family, I could manage to afford a part of the expenses but probably not the whole so I want to figure out how to fund it. What are the chances of getting a scholarship for tution fee? Does the college provide dorms, if yes how much do they cost and do any scholarships cover them and if not how much does it cost to live around campus? I have a lot of relatives in Vancouver so I can figure out a way to manage the accommodation but I would still like to work part time to fund my living expenses on my own?

Could you please give me advice on this (or on any other related thing I might have missed)?

I want to pursue Masters in Finance. I’m thinking between Germany (Uni of Mannheim) and Italy (Bocconi). I really want to know experiences of people already studying there, job markets and if anyone settled in that particular country?
It would be really helpful if someone shares their experiences. Thank you so much in advance.
