Over 150 students from SE, TE, and BE participated enthusiastically in the event.
The session was conducted by Mr. Nitin Lathe from IMFS, who offered an in-depth overview of the application process for international universities. Key topics included visa requirements, documentation, standardized tests (GRE, GMAT, TOEFL, IELTS), and step-by-step admission procedures. His insights enabled students to understand the intricacies of planning their academic journey overseas.
Additionally, a representative from HDFC Credila addressed the financial planning aspect, explaining student loan options, eligibility, documentation, interest rates, and repayment structures, thus helping students grasp how to fund their education effectively.
The seminar emphasized crucial elements such as selecting the right country and university, understanding scholarships and budgeting, preparing for entrance exams, and handling common challenges. An interactive Q&A session allowed students to seek personalized guidance on university shortlisting, visa queries, and career prospects post-graduation.
The seminar concluded with a free GRE test offered by IMFS, with incentives based on scores. The event received overwhelming appreciation and successfully inspired students to take structured steps toward their study abroad goals. PHCET remains committed to organizing such impactful sessions that broaden students’ horizons and prepare them for global opportunities.
