Foreign education consultants are professionals who assist students with the application process and attending universities or colleges outside of their home country. They can provide information about the application process, help students find suitable universities and programs and provide advice on issues such as visas and accommodation. They can also help students prepare for standardized tests and interviews and provide language and cultural training. Some consultants may work for specific universities or institutions, while others may work independently or for consulting firms. There are many reasons why parents decide to send their children to foreign countries for education. Some parents believe that their student will get a better education in a foreign country than in their home country.
