This year witnessed the government in UK, the shutting down of 32 universities that were fake and 30 more universities are being scrutinized for the same. In June, 2016 a report was also released that detailed the Western Kentucky University (WKU) which is a proper university in the US, having asked 25 Indian students who were freshers at the computer science to return since they did meet the requirements of the admission. Also, 19 students from India were offloaded by an Air India flight in Hyderabad. These students were forced to leave the flight since they seem suspicious as they were heading for US universities.
The cases mentioned above are only a few of similar cases. The worse thing is the frequency of such cases having increased drastically. It does not matter if the recruiters were fraudulent or the university was fake, the students and their parents/ guardians are the ones paying the price for such activities. Also once an individual is deported he or she unfortunately gets a permanent blotch on their passport, which will make it very absolutely impossible to get to another school or country for their education or career in the future. But there are some mistakes that Indian students often make, avoiding which there are chances of actually being able to prevent such humiliation.
5 Mistakes to Avoid As an Indian Student to Prevent Deportation:
It may not seem much currently too many but there are ways to prevent such situations. Agiliance is key, for sure but here are 5 things that you should always make sure that you avoid so that you can a smooth educational experience abroad:
1. Control the application process yourself. Don’t rely on others:
A recruitment agent definitely aids you to get to the right place a student but the problem lies in the fact that he or she will recommend a university that according to them serve your purpose but not your own understanding. You cannot rely on his or her competency when your whole career is at stake. So make a well researched decision. Find out ways to check the sanctity of the universities and also get in touch with whoever can give you a second opinion. Take the decisions yourself and avoid getting into anything that does not seem legit in your opinion unless proven otherwise.
2. Have a clear idea of the basic processes, Do not Skip it since you are paying a recruiter:
You may find the processes tedious to deal with, especially all the paperwork involved. But you must be aware of all the processes, so that no one can cheat you. Also, used unbiased sources for your research. This is possible through visiting websites of college search engines and education services available through diplomatic missions.
3. Avoid recruiting agents who seem shady already:
You need to understand that there are no easy roads or shortcuts in life. However, if your recruitment agent is offering you such opportunities, run as far away as possible from such people. This mainly comes to students in the form of the recruiters tweaking your records to improve your chances. This trap may seem obvious but many people get carried away with their desperation and are not careful in handling the situation cognitively. Sometimes it is important to develop a fear and that must be the fear of messing up your education and career for life.
4. Do not allow people to fudge your credentials. Don’t do it yourself, too:
Scraping through admissions process initially by misleading information and qualifications and skills will get you to a certain point but you will always live in the fear of the truth and that will again mess it up for you. You will be noticed for your poor your lack of adherence to your qualifications and skills which will lead to again a problem that you want to avoid.
5. You are a student. Every other intention must be avoided:
If you are looking for work at a country, go with that singular intention. Simply getting a student visa to be able to look for jobs in that country will only land you in trouble. Immigration officials as well as criminal investigators are always looking for ‘student visa mills', among which there are recruiters who take large numbers of fee-paying students from India. You either will be deported or denied a student visa if caught.
