Confused about how to navigate yourself in the rush and noise of which Graduate school to pick for your Masters abroad? Well, do not worry as we have condensed a list with 6 steps to short-list your dream school below! Read the 6 C’s to find out.

● Step 1: Career

Although passion and interest in a subject is vital to pursue it in Graduate school, it is important that you research a lot about the career opportunities that follow after you pursue a particular degree. You have to follow your heart, but don’t forget your mind with you as well.

● Step 2: Country

Researching which country you would like to study in is of critical importance. Given that you will be spending several years of your life in a foreign country and institute, having knowledge about what you might encounter there in terms of people, environment, and education can be a major deciding factor.

● Step 3: Catalogue

Make sure to be realistic about this process. This is not to say that you should not aim high, but you must judge your own potential and create a catalogue of both, preferred colleges, and backup colleges. Although it may be disheartening, it is a vital step in the possibility that you do not get admission from your preferred college.

● Step 4: Curriculum

In any college, in spite of an outstanding faculty, good campus, and good reviews, there always exists a possibility of the curriculum not fitting your taste, or falling behind what you expected. Thus, checking out all possible options for your own fit can be an essential ingredient.

● Step 5: Circuit

A severely important aspect of education is the faculty, after all, they are the ones teaching you! For a college to be reliable and of actual help to you, the faculty must be good, otherwise, you might end up with a degree that does not really help you in the long run. Thus, researching the faculty, from permanent to guest, is a must.

● Step 6: Cost

Last but not least, this can (unfortunately?) be labelled as the most crucial step to determining your dream college. This decision often feels like it’s too heavy on your pocket, so make sure to consider both, your parents’ current financial situation and your situation in the future as well because you might have to pay off student loans.
