Planning to study abroad often begins with excitement, followed quickly by questions. Which destination is better for your course? What universities match your academic profile? How much should you budget? Are scholarships available?
If you are considering whether to study in the UK and Dubai, PFEC Global Kolkata is hosting a dedicated UK & Dubai Study Abroad Open Day to help you find clearer answers.
Instead of spending weeks comparing information online, students can meet experienced study abroad counsellors, discuss their individual profiles, and understand the next steps.

What Can Students Expect from the Open Day?
The Open Day offers more than general information about studying overseas. Students can expect personalised conversations based on their academic background, interests, financial situation and plans.
Personalised Profile and Eligibility Assessment
One of the first things you can expect is a detailed discussion about your academic profile. Counsellors can review your previous qualifications, grades, English proficiency status and preferred level of study.
This helps you understand which courses and institutions realistically match your profile. If there are gaps in your current eligibility, you can also learn what steps may help you prepare before applying.
Guidance on Choosing the Right Course
Choosing a course simply because it is popular may not always lead to the right outcome.
During the Open Day, students can discuss their interests, academic background and career ambitions to identify suitable study areas. The aim is to help you understand how your chosen programme connects with your future career rather than selecting a course based only on trends.
Students can explore options across areas such as business, technology, engineering, healthcare, finance, creative industries, hospitality and other fields.
Scholarship and Funding Guidance
The cost of studying abroad is naturally one of the biggest concerns for students and parents.
At the event, students can explore possible merit-based scholarships, tuition discounts, academic awards, subject-specific funding and other financial support opportunities depending on their eligibility.
Counsellors can also explain how factors such as academic results, application timing and supporting documents may affect scholarship consideration.
Rather than assuming a scholarship will cover every expense, students can get a clearer idea of how scholarships may fit into their overall financial plan.
Application and Document Support
A study abroad application involves much more than filling out an online form.
Students attending the Open Day can understand the documents they may need, including academic transcripts, certificates, English test results, passport copies, CVs and supporting statements where applicable.
You can also discuss application timelines and learn when to start preparing for your preferred intake.
Clear Next Steps After the Event
Perhaps the most valuable outcome of the Open Day is knowing what to do next.
Instead of leaving with a collection of brochures, students can work towards a practical roadmap covering course selection, application preparation, scholarships, eligibility requirements and the next stages of their study abroad journey. 
Why Consider Studying in the UK?
For Indian students, the UK offers a broad range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, along with a diverse international student environment.
Students can explore programmes across traditional academic areas and emerging fields such as data, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, business analytics, and digital industries.
Different scholarship and tuition-support opportunities are also available, depending on academic achievement, programme choice, and eligibility.
Why Consider Studying in Dubai?
Dubai offers a different kind of international study experience. Its position as a global commercial centre gives students exposure to a multicultural environment and industries ranging from technology and finance to tourism, logistics and entrepreneurship.
Students may also qualify for merit-based scholarships, tuition reductions, and other forms of financial support, depending on their chosen programme and academic profile.
