Ans: Hello,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am glad to hear that you have completed your Bachelor’s of Commerce (B.Com) degree and now wish to pursue an MBA in Finance or Postgraduate Diploma. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that selecting a European country to pursue your higher studies with the final goal of attaining a PR i.e. Permanent Residency, is rather a major choice. You would be glad to know that exceptional academic possibilities as well as routes to obtaining a PR are offered to international students by a number of European nations. Nevertheless, bear in mind that the particular prerequisites as well as the possibilities of attaining Permanent Residency for each country may be different. As previously mentioned, your ultimate goal is to obtain a PR and for that reason, I would recommend that you take into account countries where the immigration laws for overseas students are conducive viz., Germany, the Netherlands, Canada (although not located in Europe), as well as Sweden. Choosing these countries to pursue an MBA in Finance or a Postgraduate Diploma (PGD) can be a wise decision. Bear in mind that each country may have varying steps that lead to one attaining Permanent Residency (PR), viz., job offerings in sectors that are highly sought-after, professional experience, and language competency. I would suggest that in order to determine the best possibilities for attaining Permanent Residency (PR), you conduct a thorough study on the specified prerequisites for PR, as well as the the immigration laws and regulations for the country of your choosing. Not just that, prior to making an informed choice, ensure that you factor in the living expenses, the standard of education in your area of study, as well as the language prerequisites.
