Has somebody been on an student exchange program in india for a year?
I'm asking this question because in August I will be leaving with the AFS program for a year in India..I was wondering whether anyone has had my experience already and could possibly give me some information on how do things go usually.. I can't seem to find anything on the internet, and since it's India, and not USA i'm going to, i have no idea what to expect >.<

^^ well i didn't go to India but I did go to Japan for a year. I loved it so much, I actually stayed for another year. It's a great experience no matter where you go. Seeing another culture and immersing yourself in it. The festivals were amazing and the people were very friendly (especially my first few weeks when all I could speak was choppy japanese). I was so nervous the night before I left, but I just told myself, this is the chance of a lifetime. Whatever happens, happens. So go for it and have fun!

Try looking through the discussions on cultures-shocked.org. Or perhaps AFS can supply the contact info for someone who has gone there. Good luck!!

You are questing for the impossible. You canny simply decide to become an American citizen. You need to apply for a green card and IF you are accepted (a lengthy process), you can live in the united states and after the passage of several years, apply for citizenship.

It is better to go as a student. For immigration purposes, you will be better off. Being a student allows you the time to learn about the place. As an employee, you need an employer to employ you. Won't that be difficult if you have never been there and you are inexperienced, you are only a fresher.Sart small and you will grow. If you really want to work there, as a student, you will have ample time to inquire directly about jobs while studying and it is also easy if you have some experience living in the place you will be better equipped and your immigration statue will also be better. Students are allowed to apply for work permits after a certain period.

List of almost all nursing colleges.. http://education.newkerala.com/india-education/Nursing.html Each will have a different fee structure depending on what you want - Degree, Some expertise, Some certificate course smthg else...
2 :
Very Cheap , If you manage to get admission in Govt. College, [ I got my Engg. Bachelor Degree (04 Yr. Degree course) in 500$ (less than 25000 Rs. only], there it is subsidized by Govt., but entrance exams are tough, However in Private college, admissions are easy to get, but the entire education may cost you between 10,000$ - 20,000$ ( 05 Lacs to 10 Lacs ), you can even get the Bank Loans for that, One can easily get the living accomodation in Metro Cities in 100$ per month for students... Please feel free to ask for more if required.

How Much Money do i have to show the Canadian Embassy to get a Student visa ? question from india?

The fee for a Canadian Study Visa is $125 CDN. In regards to what financial documents you have to show, you will have to show officials your last four monthly banking statements, a bank statement from a Canadian bank showing that you have one opened, any financial scholarships or assistance from the college (you can obtain this from the university). You will have to show that you will not become a burden to taxpayers and therefore you should check the cost of living in the town/city you plan on residing. Get an average yearlymedian salary from that town/city and then multiply it by the number of years you plan on studying. For example, if you plan on living in New Brunswick and the average median salary there is $35,000 a year, and you plan on studying for two years, you should have at least one year's salary to cover you while studying UNLESS you plan on workingw hile studying. In that case you will have to present proof of employment while in Canada and most likely officials will waive a large financial requirement before issuing you a visa.

Hi, I m an 11th grade student from India. I want to get into MIT or Princeton or Caltech.What should I do?

I wanted to ask what more should I do? I have been in my school council too. I want to be a physicist. Can you please guide me on what kind of research should I do too? Thanks!

I think you should first contact those schools and ask for an Application Packet. It will tell you a lot, not everything, but you will NOT be admitted without submitting the correct Application. What you should also do is find people near you who went to those schools. You want to sit down and talk to them about it, as personal recommendations from alumni will often go a LONG way with the people making the decision. Do not be shy about asking them for a Letter of Recommendation, you may be the first person to ever ask them and they will be honored by the request. They might have other tips for you as well, LISTEN.

With a resume like that you can probably get into almost anywhere you want, so find some research that you think sounds interesting. Once you actually get into the lab everything starts to look differently, so you might end up switching your research topic before you find what you like.

All the information for international students is online at the schools' websites.
