As more and more students from Laos and fellow South East Asian nations look to study abroad, the UK’s Education is Great roadshow drives on with efforts to promote its considerable offerings in the sector in the form of the UK Study Fair 2019 in the capital Vientiane.
International education opportunities abound, yet for students and parents looking to make the best possible choice, the options available may appear overwhelming. How do you know which path will lead you into the right degree and many career options beyond?
Culture? Lifestyle? Visas? Language? For students opting to study abroad, there are many factors to consider in choosing an education destination.
It can be confusing to decide where to study, and make sure you understand the whole process from application to life after graduation and beyond.
Just in time to de-mystify some of these options is the UK Study Fair on Saturday, February 23.
OK, What’s so great an education in the UK?
The UK touts education as a strength that is widely considered to present some of the very best educational options anywhere.
