Foundation will arrange partnerships between English-medium
Indian institutions and accredited American / Canadian
universities, so that Indian students who complete 12th
standard may be admitted as freshmen in undergraduate
programs of American / Canadian universities. Partnership
programs with Indian institutions are important mechanisms
that enhance access to undergraduate programs of American
and Canadian universities. These programs support educational
mobility and facilitate seamless acceptance of academic
credit of Indian students from 12th standard. These programs
enble Indian students to transition smoothly to American
and Canadian educational systems and help in students’
course selection, eliminate curriculum redundancies, streamline
the application review process, and promote understanding
among educators across India, the USA and Canada.
These programs provide a
measure
of certainty to students in Indian institutions that
they will be accepted in accredited American / Canadian
universities. Students will be spared the stress of
having to prepare for the highly competitive entrance
examinations in India for institutes of technology,
medical colleges, etc., with the knowledge that their
admission in good accredited American / Canadian universities
is assured. Further, students will have the option to
change their field of study when they enter American
/ Canadian universities. TOEFL and SAT will be required
for admission to American / Canadian universities. Through
partnership programs, American / Canadian universities
will be able to establish long-term visibility and presence
in India apart from attracting continuing stream of
Indian students.
The Foundation will be pleased
to assist American and Canadian universities for establishing
academic partnerships with good and reliable Indian
institutions. Please indicate whether your institution
would like to establish partnership programs with Indian
institutions so that students who complete 12th standard
in India may be admitted as freshmen. Please mention
the specific undergraduate programs to which Indian
students may seek admission.
