While planning to find employment
overseas has long been part of the international Filipino experience, the idea
of getting an education overseas has, perhaps for some time, be limited in
scope. A Filipino going to high school or college studies abroad tends to be
perceived as being wealthy enough to do so. Or maybe they have relatives already
living and working in the countries they plan to enroll in. More recently
however, the idea of studying abroad has become a more tangible reality for
many. That does not mean getting into a foreign school is easy now. For many
aspiring students, they will need help.
And help they are sure to get –
help that many others before have been getting – courtesy of AECC Global. They
are a leading overseas education consultancy, helping young and ambitious minds
get a shot at international studies since the mid-2010s, in major centers
across the Philippines: Metro Manila, the Visayas and even in Mindanao. In
fact, AECC Global has already been quite established here in GenSan, only
shutting down office operations during the COVID pandemic. Now however, they
are back in action, and from a new accessible location to boot. They will not
let a pandemic get in the way of Filipinos getting overseas education.
So how does AECC Global help in
realizing that Filipino dream of studying internationally? Maybe a prospective
student already has an overseas educational institution of choice. Or maybe
they just have a country they have in mind to study in but no idea which school
to choose from. AECC Global’s consultancy services can give recommendation
institutes to the undecided. In any case, they will help the aspirant in their
school application, from gathering required personal and financial documents,
travel and accommodation arrangements, and even getting student visas if
necessary. And they will do this for applicants completely free of charge!
You read that right. True,
applicants will still dole out cash expenses for the school application, partial
tuition, student visa and medical exam/insurance (if required), airfare and
accommodation (if they have no relatives/acquaintances to stay with at their
destination countries. But these expenses will go straight to the educational
institution/the DFA/airline/et cetera. AECC Global will not charge any fee of
their own for their consultancy services. Students can apply for any overseas
educational level, from primary school to college, vocational and postgraduate
courses. This is made possible by the wide selection of their partner
institutes.
To give an idea, AECC Global
consultation can help any Filipino apply to study at quality schools in
Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the US and UK. And their help does not stop at
just getting the student in. Assistance will persist throughout the applicant’s
overseas student life. Many AECC Global partner institutions allow their
students to pursue part-time employment. That is already a potential avenue to
make money while studying. And for students who have no overseas relatives for
living arrangements, the consultancy can also point them to local communities
of the Filipino diaspora, so that applicants need not be strangers in a strange
land.
With the world slowly opening up
again as the worst of the pandemic begins to fade away, there is no better time
than now for students to contemplate the possibility of getting their diplomas
abroad. If they mean to pursue the OFW path then such qualifications can only
be a big boon.
