Schooling Abroad With 500k? by QuestionGuy: 11:37pm On May 27, 2015
Good day all. I am a guy in my late teens who is determined on studying off the shores of Nigeria due to our low educational standards. I recently got a raise of about 500,000 thousand naira (asides the monthly pocket money) and i'm worried and also wondering if it's enough for such an endeavor.

My course of study is information technology, and i'm hoping to study in a country like INDIA due to it being an IT HUB and it's low tuition fees/cost of accommodation and general standard of living. I have also heard of some universities in Europe with almost zero tuition fees but i lack the know-how/information about such schools and on how to apply.

I would greatly appreciate any advice/information from those with experience or those studying abroad regarding my situation.

Thank you all.

Just check out the threads here and get some hints from them ask questions in any of the threads and you will get the needed info.. personally I will advice you start making enquiries from the schools that interest you from your preferred country, as some require a test of English while some don't and again do more research on their requirements as per qualifications. I recommend this site www.findaschool.org it's cool has a list of all countries and their uni with colleges.

Wish you the best!

This is a thing that the people promoting these countries will not tell you!

They have their native language of Estonian.
The majority of people will probably speak and understand Russian.
Most people in shops etc will not understand English.
There will be a few who speak English but not many.
Even if your course is taught in English many of the students will speak mainly in other languages.
To work even part time you will need to be able to speak and understand the local language.
