Category: Study Abroad

Our study abroad guides explain what happens after you choose a course: the student visa, the money you must show, the costs you should plan for and your options to stay and work after graduation. We cover popular destinations such as the UK, Canada, Australia and Germany.
Scholarships and study abroad guides do different jobs. A scholarship post tells you about one award and how to win it. A study abroad guide, on the other hand, explains the rules every student must meet, whether or not they have funding. For example, it covers how much money a student visa requires and which bank statements are accepted.
We base every guide on the official government immigration website. We link to the exact page each figure comes from, and we show a “Last verified” date. When a government changes a rule, we update the guide. So you can rely on the numbers, but always confirm them on the official page before you apply.
Choose your destination to see every guide and scholarship for that country: study in the UK, study in the USA, study in Canada or study in Europe.

You will find three kinds of posts here. First, visa requirement guides, such as proof of funds and financial requirements. Second, cost guides that show worked examples using official figures. Third, post-study work guides, such as the UK Graduate visa. For the official UK rules, start with the GOV.UK Student visa guide.
Looking for funding as well? Browse our scholarships for international students. If you plan to work after your studies, our visa sponsorship jobs section explains the work routes.We add new guides regularly and refresh existing ones whenever a rule changes. If you spot an outdated figure, tell us through the contact page and we will check it.
