EdTechReview.in recently reported that Career Mosaic, a leading global student recruitment firm, has signed 20 Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with American universities. This move is expected to help bridge the gap between Indian students and higher education opportunities in the United States.
The company is committed to providing various support services, such as student counselling sessions, institutional roadshows, application assistance, and other outreach initiatives, to aid Indian students with pursuing higher education in the US. This includes building strong relationships with accredited and progressive universities and high schools dedicated to expanding their international student body.
Rafael Alvarado, Assistant Director, International Recruitment & Admissions, Kansas State University, Manhattan, said that partnering with Career Mosaic has been beneficial in reaching the South Asia market, and has helped them access qualified applicants, generate meaningful contacts in the region, and maximize their potential in the area.
The U.S. Embassy in India found that India has surpassed China as the leading source of student visas in the U.S. In the summer of 2023 (June-August), over 90,000 visas were issued, with one out of every four going to Indian students. The previous year (2022) saw an unprecedented 125,000 student visas being issued to Indian nationals.
Abhijit Zaveri, Founder and Director of Career Mosaic, commented that the collaboration with these prestigious US universities is a testament to their commitment to excellence and dedication to helping students reach their goals. Through this, they hope to enable study abroad aspirations of Indian students and help them become global citizens.
Data from the previous year shows that nearly 75% of applications from students aspiring to study in the United States come from the Andhra Pradesh/Telangana region. Gujarat contributes 6%, while Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka also make up a significant portion.
Since 2002, Career Mosaic has been providing genuine and transparent advice to students looking to study abroad. Every year, they help thousands of students achieve their dreams with their tech-driven platform. The University & Course Finder Search Engine uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to match students to universities, while the Application Management System is an operational tool used to manage student data.
With the goal to make higher education accessible to all, Career Mosaic is providing teachers with the resources to help their students succeed. Through the company’s initiatives, teachers are now able to provide students with accurate information about courses and scholarship opportunities, and guide them through the application process.
