It looks like some fairy tale to me
as it was yesterday to when I
submitted my documents for
admission to MBBS at EW Office. I
was very happy. And today I called
my father after receiving my
degree from the graduation
ceremony “Baba I am a doctor
now”. It felt like closed my eyes as
a student & opened as a doctor.
Expertise of EW saved my 1 year,
when I had to work up whole night
with EW processing officer to
meet the dead lines on special
request (Marcus,
Canada)
I was lost in depression when I
could not get admission in MBBS
after passing my intermediate. I
am teaching at a local college.
Then one good day my teacher
advised me of contacting EW. That
one call on time, & I am a 4th
year
medical student now. (Ali)

Study in Germany
1.8 million Students around the world go abroad to attend a university. Nearly one tenth of those students choose to come to Germany. Germany has a lot to offer to foreign students, be they first-year students or postgraduates. Germany's universities combine age-old traditions with modern technologies. More than 300 universities are featured on Campus Germany: from time-honored institutions offering students the classical repertoire of subjects such as Medicine, Law, English and German to innovative new institutions of higher education with inter-disciplinary study programs. German universities are open to anyone who fulfills the prerequisites and academic freedom is one of the basic principles of the German university system. When study regulations do not require a work placement, it does not hurt to get the experience. Employers especially look for students with work experience like they look for students with good marks. There are several organizations which offer financial support for a course of study in Germany. The magic term is “Promotion of talent”. Whereby “talent” does not strictly mean just intelligence or the ability to achieve good grades. Personality and social commitment are also important criteria when considering a person's eligibility for a scholarship.
Study in Australia
Australia is one of the best places in the world to live while you learn. The standard of living is amongst the highest in the world, yet costs remain competitive The Australian education system is divided broadly into four levels of schooling: 1. Primary; 2. Secondary; 3. Vocational education; and 4. Training and higher education From 26 April 2008, your student visa allows you to work up to 20 hours a week on a casual basis. All paid, volunteer or unpaid work counts toward the 20 hours a week limit. Invest in yourself......it’s the only sure thing!
