As per a report by MM Advisory Services titled ‘Indian Students Mobility Report 2016, US numbers from India jumped almost 30% in 2015.

“In the US alone, nearly 45% of international students are either Chinese or Indians. That’s almost half the market. Canada seems to be headed that way too. In 2010, the percentage share for China plus India was 30%. In 2014, it was almost 42%,” the report stated.

Most of the Indians who go to study abroad prefer subjects like finance and economics, engineering, computer science, art and design, etc.

The most preferred universities by Indian students are MIT, University of Chicago, Princeton University, University of Cambridge, UCL (University College London), Imperial College London, University of Oxford, National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University Singapore, Australian National University, etc.

“However, it’s important to note that a student may prefer to study in a popular university, but getting accepted into it is altogether a different scenario,” said Natasha Chopra, Managing Director, The Chopras’ that offers educational services to student world over.
