Tips for Indian students who are going to study abroad
This is a short article, covering only the most crucial tips and points.
#1 Make sure that you carry these essential documents when you travel abroad-
Don’t forget to carry important documents like- Passport, Ticket, Academic Certificates, Currency (of the nation that you are traveling to), and Offer Letter. These documents are very important ones and travelling without them can result in trouble once you reach your destination.
#2 Don’t forget to take these things with you-
Clothes (based on the climate of the nation you are going to), basic household items, essential food items, etc. It is better to carry these things rather than buy them from the nation abroad once you reach there.
But while packing, keep in mind the restrictions that the nation you are traveling to has, regarding food items. Some nations don’t permit certain edible items to be carried there.
#3 Carry these health and medicines related documents-
In case you suffer from some illness or you have any particular medical condition, then make it a point to get a medical certificate from your Doctor. Carry the medical certificate while you travel abroad.
Also, carry necessary medicines and prescription slips also. Once you reach your destination abroad, consult a Doctor there, describe to him/her your situation, and get a prescription slip from him/her. This step will make sure that you have access to the necessary medicines.
#4 Things to do once you reach abroad-
Consult the International Students Guidance Cell of that particular nation. Take their help to get documents and do procedures like- Student Travel Pass, Student Insurance paperwork, opening a bank account in that country, getting a working phone/mobile connection, etc.
