Singapore:
The small country of Singapore certainly packs a punch when it comes to academics and is now considered as the front-runner in the race for the best education destinations in the world.
The country is very much famous among the students for its management courses as well as its top universities. Some of the top institutions include Singapore University of Technology and Design, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, Singapore Institute of Technology, SIM University, Nanyang Technological University and National University of Singapore.
Another added advantage of studying in Singapore is that the government pays 75 percent of the tuition fee for the students; in exchange, the student has to work for 3 years in the country.
India:
Having a good reputation for educational system, affordability of tuition fees and the availability of financial aid, India has emerged as one of the countries to make it on this list. Though engineering and medical programmes remain popular choices among students, India houses some of the best colleges in Asia for other study programmes as well.
When it comes to popularity, India is home to some top institutions including the Indian Institutes for Technology, the Indian Institutes for Management, St. Stephen’s College, Lady Shri Ram College and Sri Ram College of Commerce. All these colleges are affiliated to India’s top central university, the University of Delhi. A low cost of living, cultural diversity and a warm climate are some of the main reasons why students prefer to study in India.
