The QS world university tour, organised by the team behind the annual QS World University Rankings, will be in New Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad at the end of April, to offer overseas undergraduate study-opportunities for students in India.
Mihir Patel, QS's marketing director for India and the Middle East says, "We've been bringing universities from some of the world's top destinations to India for over 10 years now. Despite recent reports of governmentimposed visa-restrictions for international students in certain countries, we found that universities continue to recognise the talent in Indian students and are keen to offer admissions, visa and funding advice to encourage their applications." Over 600 students and parents are expected to attend the free events and meet admissions directors from universities in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, Switzerland, Spain and other top destinations. Attendees will also have the opportunity to attend study-abroad seminars and dedicated workshops on how to improve their IELTS, TOEFL & SAT scores as well as meet with graduate alumni from the attending universities.
QS will also be giving away an iPad to one student in each city along with a copy of the 'QS top universities guide' - a guide to the world's best universities - to the first 100 visitors to each event.
