Studying of Indian students in Belarus
Considering the fact that most education programs are taught in Russian and education itself is not considered the most prestigious one in Europe, in most cases Belarus is the choice of students from India who due to some reasons don’t want or can’t study in Poland, Great Britain, Germany and other European countries. It is important to note financial availability of getting higher education in Belarus, as well as low level of related expenses.
Therefore, low prices for education and accommodation, but at the same time fairly high quality of education attract students from India to study in Belarus. Some universities have even developed education programs of first and second degree especially for Indians.
Indians have an opportunity to get higher education not only on a paid basis, but also for free. It depends on availability and terms of the agreement between an entrant’s native country and Belarus.
At present, more than 1,100 Indians study at different faculties of Belarus. Students from India come to join the MBBS program in the English instructional environment. Many of them also study at engineering faculties. Indian cuisine is also available in Belarus. Students from India receive visas from the Embassy of Belarus in Delhi. Indians do not feel that they are far from their homeland, as they have a large Indian community in Belarus.
Indians who get admitted on a paid basis may find it more cost-efficient to select evening-time education or extramural form of study, which enable them to work and cost less.
If to talk about accommodation, it’s better not to count on a room in the dormitory, because they are usually full. But don’t worry, it is possible to rent a cheap apartment for Indian even in the capital city, not to mention a suburb.
According to the latest news more than 110 scholarships are available for students from India in Belarus. The only thing that should be taken into consideration when choosing paid education is that prices for the same specialization may differ in various universities. So, when submitting document don’t limit with only one educational institution.
