How is the Philippines as study destination for Indian Students? For last few months, we were approached by many students, who wanted to go to Philippines for study abroad. We were also approached by many Philippines educational institutes, who offered suitable courses for aspiring students from India and other subcontinent countries. Since Philippines does not offer many opportunities after studies and it has been perceived to be an unsafe place so we never uggested it to our students. However there have been many good success stories now so we decided to find out whether Philippines is actually a good study and career destination for Indian and Nepalese students. I hence recently went to Philippines and visited many places and university/ college campuses, met university staff and interacted with existing students there. And now I can say that with confidence that Philippines has certain great unimaginable options available for Indian students leading them to great career and study options abroad. Many areas in Philippines are considered unsafe and there are extremely limited career prospects for international students as local’s job requirements are very high. There is unavailability of part time jobs and most importantly, as compared to countries like Australia, UK or Canada, it does not offer high quality education. Philippines is generally not a good option for average students for their higher studies. However Philippines offers very good options for specific student communities – especially for English courses and Courses as Pathway to Australia, Pilot training and MBBS/ MD/ Medical related courses.
