Hi everyone,

I'm from India and have a BDS degree. I'm planning to switch to a non-clinical career and pursue a Master's in fields like Healthcare Management, Health Informatics, Health Information Management, or similar programs.

I'm feeling completely stuck and would really appreciate advice from people who have gone through this.

My situation:

I have offer letters from Australian universities, but the total cost is going beyond ₹50 lakh, which is difficult for my family.

I'm also applying to Germany. I have taken the PTE, but a few consultancies are telling me that the German Embassy may reject my student visa because I didn't take IELTS. This has made me very anxious because I've heard mixed opinions.

One option I'm considering is BSBI in Berlin/Hamburg, but I'm worried because it is a private institution and I've read discussions saying it is not as highly regarded as public German universities. Would studying there affect my visa approval, job opportunities, or long-term career prospects?

My budget is around ₹30–35 lakh (including tuition and living expenses).

My priorities are:

Good return on investment (ROI)

Strong job market after graduation

Possibility of staying and working after the degree

Opportunity to save money and eventually support my family in India

An English-taught program (I don't know German yet, though I'm willing to learn)

My questions are:

If you were in my position, which country would you choose?

Is PTE really a problem for a German student visa, or is this just consultancy misinformation?

Is BSBI worth considering, or should I avoid it?

Are there other countries (such as Ireland, Finland, or any others) where I could realistically complete a Master's within ₹30–35 lakh and still have good career prospects?

I'd really appreciate honest opinions, especially from people currently studying or working abroad.

Thank you so much!

I really want to move abroad this year and tI have received offer letters from australia for masters in health administration but the total expense of the loan would be around 50k gbp

Now I am reconsidering my decision and thinking of applying in Germany where even in private universities the cost is around 15gbp, and UK because of the intake issue.

The thing is now I'm getting told that Pearson Test of English is not acceptable by embassy for Germany. What shall I do. Please suggest some good options.

Hi everyone, I have applied in private universities in germany for masters in healthcare management and I gave Pearson Test of English (PTE) because it was one the tests enlisted in universities website. I scored 90. But in the Visa requirements PTE is not located. Can someone please tell if this is acceptable by embassy for visa purpose or not.

Hi, i am a dentist and i really want to study masters in Germany like healthcare management or digital health. Please suggest some good unis whose intake is still open for October intake.
