Ans: Hello Yadav,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am pleased to hear that your daughter has completed her MBBS from Ukraine. Concerning your query as to whether it is okay to send your daughter abroad, I would like to tell you that although it can be a wise decision and an excellent chance to send her to another country to either pursue further education or to start her profession, this decision should be well thought of. Next, to decide as to which country would be ideal, I would like to say that your daughter’s preferred field of study, her professional ambitions, the cost, as well as the linguistic preferences, play a prominent role in deciding this. On completing an MBBS degree, Canada, Australia, the USA, the UK, as well as several European nations are among the sought-after locations to pursue higher education.

The tuition fees, housing costs, costs of living, and other associated expenditures are all included in the cost to study overseas. Your daughter should take into account these costs. However, remember that based on the country your daughter decides to study in and her preferred university or course, these costs can differ. Moreover, to reduce the cost of studying abroad, a number of scholarships and possibilities for monetary assistance are available that your daughter should consider. I would recommend that your daughter conducts an extensive study on the universities and programs in the countries of her choosing, whilst taking into account the educational standards, employment prospects post graduation, as well as the immigration guidelines, prior to making an informed choice. Moreover, to receive useful advice based on your daughter's personal circumstances and goals, she should get in touch with academic advisors or career counselors.

Ans: Hello MANOJ,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am happy to hear that your daughter is pursuing the final year of her Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Clinical Psychology and thereafter, wishes to pursue higher studies overseas. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that a number of variables viz., your daughter’s interests, the budget, the preferred field of psychology she intends specializing in, and her professional objectives, play a key role in deciding on a country to pursue higher studies and a career in clinical psychology. Concerning your question, I would recommend that she considers the following:

The USA is home to prestigious universities that offer outstanding clinical psychology programs. Nevertheless, costs can be high, including living expenses, tuition fees, and healthcare. Although assistantships and scholarships are available, they are highly competitive. You would be glad to know that the job prospects in the USA is enormous with opportunities in research, diverse healthcare environments, academia, as well as patient care. Next, coming to Canada, the country’s top-notch instruction and multicultural setting is well-regarded. Remember, in comparison to the USA, expenditures may be comparatively lower. However, it still calls for proper financial planning. Offering possibilities in academia, research, and practice, clinical psychology is a legally regulated profession in Canada. Universities in the UK offer exceptional programs in psychology. I would like to tell you that based on the location and the university opted for, costs may differ. Possibilities for research, teaching, and clinical practice, are offered by the country. Nevertheless, bear in mind that post-Brexit visa rules could have an impact on overseas students. Noteworthy programs in psychology are offered by universities in Australia. Remember that although expenditures can range from low to high, scholarships are available. Offering possibilities in research, clinical practice, and other mental health services, in Australia, clinical psychology is a legally regulated profession. Coming to Netherlands, the country is renowned for its advanced approaches to psychology and mental healthcare. Programs in the Netherlands are often taught in English, and tuition fees for overseas students are relatively cheaper. The employment opportunities include research, clinical practice, and policy development.

Prior to deciding on a country, I would suggest that your daughter conducts an extensive study on the visa prerequisites, demand in the labor market, licensing procedures for practicing psychologists, as well as the cultural aspects pertaining to each country. Not just that, she should also acquire counsel from professional advisors or educational counselors, as well as get in touch with experts in the field of her choosing.
