What education abroad can give, Part – 2
What difficulties will you have to face
Few dispute the advantages of studying abroad, but isn't it too difficult, expensive and incomprehensible? Here are the main difficulties you will have to face when applying to a foreign university or school:
It is expensive
For a year of study at a private American school, on average, you will have to pay 50-60 thousand dollars, for a semester of study at a university - from 18 to 50 thousand. Sometimes scholarships and grants help, but even in this case, foreign education will require significant investments. You just need to remember that these investments will definitely pay off: it is more profitable to invest in education than elsewhere. The starting salary for graduates of The University of Illinois in Chicago, for example, is 71 thousand dollars, and for engineers who graduated from the University of California, Irvine can go up to 125 thousand.
Language barriers interfere
Explaining in English at the airport is one thing, but writing a 500-word essay on the prospects for the development of artificial intelligence is quite another. You will need to understand complex lectures, participate in discussions, make presentations and write research papers.
It's hard to choose where to go
Even if you already have a rough list of requirements and expectations, choosing a school or university is very difficult. In the United States alone, there are about 5 thousand universities and more than 34 private schools. There are a lot of selection criteria, and the ratings give only the most general picture. Where can I find a good computational linguistics program, and where is the best place to study engineering? What about the climate in this district, is the transport convenient and what is the food in the canteen? Details that seem insignificant can actually make a difference.
Red tape with documents
Translation of a diploma and certificate, motivation letters, recommendations, portfolio and visa - to study abroad you will have to go through many bureaucratic obstacles. All this must be done on time and without errors - otherwise you simply will not have time to enroll in the required program.

How an educational agency can help
For more than 17 years, IQ Consultancy experts have been helping students enter foreign schools and universities. Our task is to overcome all the obstacles that stand between you and admission.
Let's improve the language: The language school IQ Consultancy conducts various language courses, prepares for international language exams and is even an official TOEFL reception center. We teach both spoken English and English for study. After these courses, you will be able to understand lectures and terminology, write essays, read and analyze complex texts. We also have courses in subjects that are not in the Russian school, but in the British and American ones - for example, Critical Thinking.
We will help you to submit the documents correctly: Each educational institution has its own entrance requirements. We are familiar with all these subtleties - you don't have to waste your time on paperwork. IQ Consultancy experts will help you write a convincing motivation letter, prepare recommendations and copies of diplomas, apply for a visa on time, buy tickets and book accommodation.
We know how to choose an educational institution: IQ Consultancy is the official representative of more than 300 schools, universities and language centers in 20 countries of the world. We will help you choose an educational institution that suits you in terms of cost, location and educational programs. Every year we organize exhibitions and arrange individual meetings with representatives of schools and universities, who personally answer questions from parents and applicants.
Many would like to study abroad, but doubt: they are afraid of high requirements, a different culture, difficulties with exams and documents. Not all of these problems can be solved by an educational agency. But we will be able to provide all the necessary information, answer questions, organize a meeting with representatives of the school and university and introduce those who have already gone through this. Leave a request and we will help you make the most balanced decision.
