Everything You Need to Know About Study Abroad

Planning to study abroad? Do you know everything you need to know about study abroad? Are you feeling nervous?

Of course, you are.

When you are flying abroad, you could never feel 100% ready for the new life in an overseas country but you can check out the following things to make your transition a little less scary and stressful.

¡Comencemos!

Keep all your important papers and documents in order

Get your passport ready and apply for your study visa on time (if you are reading this and thinking visa… what visa?). If you do not know about the visa requirements of your dream destination,

Simply  contact T2S for easy and quick assistance. In addition to this, if you have a valid passport, check multiple times for the expiry date. Ensure that your passport lasts beyond your semester abroad.

Secure your programs, housing, and flights

Every study abroad program is unique but most of them have traditional coursework. Collect details of what classes you will be taking so you can plan all your activities accordingly and where you will be staying to determine your travel.

If you are planning to travel a bit before your semesters, that is a great idea to get familiar with the local routes and transportation system. Before anything, book your flight first to make things easier and smoother.

Keep up with the latest currency exchange rates

While going to study abroad, some students consider daily expenses but even the cheapest countries are the least stable many times.

Do not assume that the US dollar or Euros or Pounds will have the same value every time. It becomes even more important if you are visiting a country that has a volatile economy.

Even a minor change can make a huge impact when you are budgeting and ruin your dream of studying abroad.

Keep yourself up-to-date with your destination

You will want to know countless things such as whether your preferred study abroad destination is experiencing major political upheaval or not, whether the economy is fluctuating or not, whether their metro or any other transportation system is falling apart or not, or they are going through any serious health crisis. Some of the best destinations to study abroad are in political or economic flux. So, it is suggested not to panic over little incidences. Simply work on your plans. The only worst scenario is if the country closes its doors and trips of international students get suspended. However, you can protect yourself in these events with student travel insurance. To get details on the same, you can ask us and we will explain it all to you.

Register your course and semester with the government of your native country

Undeniably studying abroad is so exciting but it is something that makes you vulnerable too. Take comfort in the fact that no matter what happens, the government of your home country is there to rescue you or tell you who to contact to seek help during emergencies.

Get all required health checkups and vaccinations

Your family doctor may suggest you visit a travel clinic at once. In such clinics, you will get to know all dos’ and don’ts’ to stay healthy and active overseas. You can also get in touch with your health insurance provider to let them know about your study abroad destination and complete schedule. In case you have any health issues, you can ask them to provide you with prescriptions in advance.
