The number of students from Nepal going to study abroad is increasing every year. Some of the reasons include but not limited to poor technological infrastructure, nominal or no research support, uncertainty in exams, on-campus political activities, limited areas of study and employers’ preference to hire foreign graduates. Similarly, prospects to work/earn money and to obtain permanent residency (which are not easy as they hear) are also major reasons.
Based on the public reports (as on May 02, 2020), Australia has been the top preferred country Nepal with the student population of 46,011. After Australia, the main destinations for students are Japan, Cyprus, India, China, Canada, United States, New Zealand, South Korea and UAE.
Study abroad offers a lot of unique opportunities. You will experience a brand-new country with incredible new outlooks, customs and activities, natural wonders, etc. You can choose to do a major that may not be available in Nepal. You will also be exposed to new cultures, which would be a great asset when you graduate and return home. You will also have a chance to immerse yourself in a new language. You can also make lifelong friends abroad as most of the quality universities abroad have students from different parts of the world. Another important reason for you to study abroad is to prepare yourself for an exciting career. In this globalized world, employers prefer foreign graduates, and employers in Nepal can’t be an exception to this.
An important thing for you to consider before you plan to study abroad is which country you best fit in. You can take a look at it from different perspectives- financial, academic, career goal, etc. You need to talk to a professional consultant/advisor who can give you a comparative analysis.
