As you move towards your dream of studying abroad, you’ll realise there’s so much more to do. Paperwork is an important aspect of the entire going abroad process. It can make or break the flow of events. Therefore, getting your visa and student travel insurance at the right time is crucial. Read on how you can get them, and how Sangved can help in making this process as smooth for you as possible.
Visa
You would know that a visa is your permit to visit a particular country. A student visa is entirely different from a tourist visa, and so is the process to attain it. It would be issued only after you have a confirmed place of study at an institution that is recognised by that country. The visa is issued for a specified period of time. You also need to know that the visa can differ from country to country. However, it is typically a study/ non-immigrant study visa.
The application of a student visa takes meticulous planning. We’ll be there to help you plan keeping in mind the deadlines university. You will have to go through the eligibility tests and also keep all your documents ready. We advice all our students to apply about 2-4 months in advance in order to avoid any last-minute trouble. In case you are seeking financial help in the form of schloarships or student loans, then we would recommend that you add a few more months, as your application may take a little more time.

We will assist you in assembling and submitting the optimal set of documents to support your visa application to the relevant Embassy or High Commission.

Medical Insurance
One thing that should never be overlooked, no matter what, is medical insurance. While travelling abroad, not having medical insurance can make you financially vulnerable if unexpected illness or injury were to occur. Medical costs in a foreign country often far exceed what an uninsured individual could afford out of pocket.
As you strive to adjust to the many challenges in a foriegn country, especially sticking to a tight budget, facing a health issue or any other everyday trouble, can put you in serious mental and financial crisis. Your student travel/ medical insurance can be a life saver in case you are in any trouble. It be our aim to help you choose the ideal medical insurance that offers global benefits.
A comprehensive travel insurance plan would ideally cover healthcare expenses including dental treatment and sports injuries. The plan may also cover a compassionate visit by a family member in certain scenarios. With proper planning, completing the neccessary formalities becomes simpler and much smoother.
