Studying abroad from South Asia.
Passage Global started here. Our founders applied from Lahore, and the questions we get from Karachi, Delhi, Dhaka, Colombo and Kathmandu are the ones we had to answer for ourselves.
The obstacles that actually apply to you.
Funding decides everything
For most applicants here, an unfunded offer is not an offer. Scholarships and assistantships have to be part of the shortlist from the start, not a hope you attach to it afterwards.
Visa scrutiny is heavier
Financial evidence and interviews are examined more closely than they are for applicants from wealthier countries. Presentation errors that would be overlooked elsewhere cost refusals here.
Credential recognition
Grading systems, degree lengths and board results all need translating into terms admissions committees read correctly — a strong profile can look weak when it is presented in the wrong units.
Test requirements stack up
IELTS or TOEFL on top of the GRE or GMAT, with limited test dates and real costs attached to each attempt. The order you sit them in matters.
A platform, and people who have seen your situation before.
Navigator does the research
Shortlisting against real applicant data, scholarships you actually qualify for, and a visa checklist for your route — so the groundwork is not guesswork.

Where the answer depends on your nationality, your curriculum or your funding situation, a person who has seen it before is worth more than a database.
