24th February 2025: Study Group, a global leader in international education, expanded student opportunities with its much-awaited event, ‘Destination USA: Your Route to Success’. The mega event was designed to bridge the gap between ambitious Indian students and top-tier U.S. educational institutions. The recently conducted landmark event represented a pivotal moment for students seeking higher education in the U.S.
The event stood out as a comprehensive education fair featuring direct access to representatives from 11 prestigious U.S. universities, including California State University San Marcos, DePaul University, Florida Atlantic University, James Madison University, Long Island University, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Towson University, University of Hartford, University of Nebraska at Omaha, and Western Washington University. With the U.S. emerging as the foremost destination for higher education among Indian students, the event offered some exclusive perks, including direct meetings with university experts, a visa masterclass with expert tips to simplify the complex process of the visa journey and a hands-on STEM session, highlighting the USA’s role as a global hub for innovation and leadership in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. More than 200 students attended the event which also presented an opportunity for participating students to earn exclusive scholarships along with big savings on application fees through visa fee waiver (exclusive attendee perk).
Mr. Alex Marston, General Manager, North America for Study Group, said, “Destination USA: Your Route to Success is not a run-of-the-mill event. By bringing multiple U.S. university partners under one roof, we are addressing the evolving international education landscape, focusing on the premium benefits of enrolling at a U.S. university and helping Indian students make informed decisions for their futures. It has served as a substantial opportunity for students to explore, understand and realize their global academic aspirations in a convenient, student-centric event. Today, and with our ongoing bespoke partnerships and admissions services, Study Group provides a solid foundation for future global leaders by simplifying their path to premier U.S. institutions.”
