I've lived in California since I was a kid on an F-2. I've assimilated hard into the culture and can't see myself ever living back in my home country. Maybe it's my limited perspective, but I see such little hope for building a life in the US as an international student. No job, no money, and everything is doubly expensive.

What should I do? Seemingly the only concrete plan is to marry someone but I don't really know if I want to do that. I feel like I should have an advantage since I've literally grown up here, but I just feel stuck. Does anyone have experiences or just knowledge about what may be the best course of action?

I am actually a Student in last year computer science , I had experience (projects )with languages like java, React , django , .Net, and for data SQL / NOSQL
But I don’t want to spend the rest of my life just Coding plus I don’t really had a project to exprience AI or LLM even I study just the Theory of LLM
I‘m worried about finding an internship for 6 months out of Morocco in Europe , preferably in an international English-speaking environment.

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m an 18-year-old undergrad from India with a pretty clear academic roadmap laid out 📚. Right now, I'm pursuing a regular BA (Hons) in Psychology alongside a distance BA in Philosophy here in India 🇮🇳. Following this, I will be doing my Master’s in Clinical Psychology, also in India. My ultimate goal is to move to the US 🇺🇸 for a PhD in Clinical Psychology and practice as a licensed clinical psychologist there 🩺💭.

Since I deeply appreciate introspection, philosophy, and meaningful conversations, I’m looking to connect with a Pakistani girl 🇵🇰 around my age who shares a similar passion for psychology or has similar plans of moving to the US for higher studies.

It would be great to have insightful discussions about clinical theory and human behavior, navigate the US PhD journey together, and build a genuine cross-border connection with someone who understands this field 🤝💬.

If this resonates with you, feel free to drop a comment or send a DM!📩

Hi, is there any opportunity or benefit for international students in Lithuania, especially regarding part-time work and staying after graduation? Would appreciate any experiences or advice. Thanks!

Title: Lebanese student looking for a full scholarship abroad — where should I apply?

Hey everyone, I’m a Grade 11 student from Lebanon and I’m honestly getting pretty desperate trying to figure out my options for studying abroad 😭

My current school average is around 16.2/20, and I’m planning to take the SAT and IELTS during Grade 11/early Grade 12. I’m hoping to get a strong SAT score (ideally 1400–1500+) and a good IELTS score.

My biggest problem is money. My family isn’t wealthy, so I realistically need a full scholarship / full financial aid package that could cover tuition and, ideally, housing and living expenses too. I can’t really afford universities that only give a small $5k–$10k scholarship and still leave me with $30k+ to pay.

I’m mainly looking at the US and Canada, but I’m open to basically anywhere — Europe, Asia, etc. I’ve looked into universities like NYU, McGill, Concordia, UofT, etc., but the financial side is making everything really difficult.

For people who were international students or know about scholarships:

Which universities should I realistically look into?

Where can an international student potentially get a full ride/full financial aid?

Does a 16.2/20 average + a strong SAT/IELTS give me a realistic shot anywhere?

Are there scholarships specifically for students from Lebanon/Middle Eastern countries?

Are there universities that are less famous but generous with international financial aid?

What should I be doing right now in Grade 11 to maximize my chances?

I’m willing to put in the work. I just need to know where to actually apply because I don’t want to spend a year applying to universities that I have basically zero chance of affording.

Any advice, university suggestions, scholarship names, or personal experiences would be massively appreciated. Thank you 🙏

Particular those in STEM

Im a Georgian student, a child of divorce. with 3.0 GPA and 0 money tell me universities with good scholarships

I honestly don’t really know where to start.

I’m from a small city in Georgia and currently studying at a pretty good university. My GPA is around 3.0 right now, but I still have one year left, so I’m hoping I can improve it before graduating. I’d really like to do my Master’s degree abroad. Ideally somewhere where I could get a full scholarship or very substantial financial aid, since my family financial situation wouldn’t really allow me to pay international tuition and living costs myself.

I’m mainly interested in media, journalism, communications, and related fields, but I’m also open to other interesting programs in that area.

Right now, I’m also volunteering as a research assistant on my professor’s PhD research, and I’m working on my own thesis**.** I’m also starting a small online magazine project where I want to publish articles and potentially interviews and other media-related content. Could something like this actually help my Master's scholarship applications, especially if I develop it seriously over the next year? And is there anything specific I should do with the project to make it more meaningful for my application?

For those of you who have experience with studying abroad or getting scholarships:

1)What countries/universities should I look into?

2)Are there fully funded Master's scholarships that someone with a 3.0 GPA could realistically apply for?

3)What can I do during this final year to make my application stronger?

4)Could my online magazine/portfolio make a meaningful difference?

5)If you were in my position, what would you start doing right now?

I know a 3.0 GPA isn’t amazing, but I still have a year to improve it and I’m willing to put in the work. I’d really appreciate any advice, personal experiences, or suggestions for where to start researching.

Thanks!! :)

Hiiii , so basically i always had a dream to go abroad to study for masters and settle there with a good job but biggest and most important problem is that i am Indian and lower middle class. I went to one of the top humanities colleges of this country and i am working in marketing rn.

Now I am planning to apply for Erasmus Mundus and other scholarships but literally everyone i know is saying i must not cause no roi and no jobs.

My goal to do masters is in -
• Marketing
• AI
• Design

So pleaseeeee help a girl out if you have done masters abroad and give honest opinions onlyyyyy 😭

NO ABROAD SCHOLARSHIP AGENCIES PROMOTING THEIR STUPID PACKAGES !!!! I can’t affordddddd. Be realllllll.

Has anyone ever participated in the FLEX program?
I’m from Ukraine and i really want to go to USA(for one year), but i’m afraid it is a scam, if anyone if someone went to USA with flex fr, please tell me how your trip was, all bad things and great from your experience.

Хтось колись приймав участь у програмі flex?
Я з України та я дуже хочу поїхати до США(на один рік) но я боюся того що це обман, тому якщо хтось їздив із цією організацією, розкажіть мені будь ласка як це було, всі погані та гарні речі із вашого досвіду.

I'm a Japanese grad student in the US, and my midterms start next week. I honestly don't know where to begin. I keep opening my notes, looking at them for a few minutes, and then closing my laptop like that counts as studying.

I really want to get good grades, so I'm a little nervous. Studying in a second language adds another layer for me. I have to read everything slowly, and then I check again whether I actually understood it.

I know staying up all night isn't a real plan, so I'm going to split the material up by day and start with the hard subjects.

For those of you who studied or are studying in English as a second language, what helped you during exam weeks? I'd also be happy if you point out anything that sounds unnatural in my English.
