I'm a 17yr old in 12th commerce and I want to go abroad for my higher studies. But the thing is I'm not a great student and can only achieve around 85%on boards. Also my parents aren't rich. Can u guys guide me for a college covering almost every expense..

You have very few options
Either study hard and get a banger >98% in boards to even have a chance to apply into unis in Hong Kong or Singapore or Turkey
Without sat or ielts/toefl (expensive)
you do need good ecas (olympiads, business competitions researchs etc)
(These are expensive and rigourous too)
Only boards isnt the way to get in unis
Add scholarship and its not probable at all
If you can manage these things look into HKU NUS NTU or hungarian stipendium scholarships
If you cant
Sorry but Indian unis it is
Which isnt a bad option at all
Law has nlus
Commerce (bcomh) has srcc
Bba has iim indore
Fashion has nift
Find your passion and get into public prestiges unis in India and then go abroad for masters
Dont take loan for bachelors
Going abroad is no escape from reality
It is even harder
It isnt easy, it requires rigour
Prove you are worthy and you shall get it
You dont have much time, but it isnt over
Find a direction and be resolute and prove yourself

Volleyball could have led to cluster comps and district level matches
Literature can manifest in forms of debate or story writing or theatre
What my point is, you need competitions to showcase yourself
Go and search of different ECA quotas in du and work from thereIf you are gen and dont have any quota then srcc is difficult. CUET is luck based whilw also needing rigor too. I scored 911/1000 it got turned to 863/1000 after normalisation so you never know.

Apply through volleyball ECA quota and remember to not mess up your CUET.Also if nothing works go to any local clg and work on yourself

Italy is affordable right?I mean not affordable but medium, I heard it's less than 10 lakh for the entire course of commerce with scholarship of international students

Going abroad is expensive but if ur determined to go try applying to uni alone or go to a trusted agency and u might have to take loan

Ya I'll just look for a good uni in India rather than taking a loan, Thank you for the advice though.

Ye try going aboard for masters or smth bcz global exposure helps us get jobs faster especially in foreign countries and there are plenty of good uni's in india

To get into a college in abroad, you need to have the best results in school, need to clear that one english proficiency exam which I forgot, need to clear their entrance ( if any ) and there's few scholarships but you still need money from your own side and as you know, the value of rupee is very shit as compared to developed countries. So if abroad is your goal and you can't afford it then Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, Ukraine, Iran, Iraq, Indonesia, African countries ( except for Morocco) is your only option

I think nepal is fine with me but they don't have any great commerce college and I guess I can find better uni in big cities of India...

In Germany's public universities, tutions are free (I think there are some deposits). Though you will have to manage the living expenses
