A huge portion of Nepalese students choose to study abroad. English-speaking countries like the USA and Australia always tempted students from Nepal. But a few more have also emerged as the preferred destination.

Nepalese students plan to move out to foreign countries for several reasons. Students go to foreign countries for better education, in search of high-paying jobs, and some students plan to settle down there. A large fraction of Nepalese students chose to study abroad just because of the trend as well. 

Below, I have a list of top 5 abroad-study destinations for Nepalese students:

Australia

Since a few years, the craze for Australia is soaring. Last year, more than 63,000 Nepalese students went abroad to study; 70% of them chose for Australia. No other destinations come close to it. 

The pleasant climate of Australia, the Australian lifestyle, and the good earning potential made the Nepalese students pick Australia. Australia homes some of the finest educational institutions in the world.

Sydney and Melbourne are the most preferred cities for Nepalese students in Australia. Other cities like Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, and Darwin also attract a small fraction of Nepalese students.

USA

The USA remains the dream destination for most of the Nepalese students. Globally, most of the students who look to study abroad choose the USA. 

The US is home to thousands of top universities and educational institutions. The country owns the majority of top colleges and universities in the world.

Besides the education, factors like quality lifestyle, diversity, access to everything, lots of career opportunities, and rights are some other major luring factors of the USA amongst the international students.

Japan

In these few years, Japan attracted a significant portion of Nepalese students, and the trend seems to continue for a few more years. Buildings in major intersections and main streets in Kathmandu and other major cities in Nepal are full of consultancies for study in Japan. 

Japan has a standard living style, and one can earn significantly in Japan. Rather than getting a degree, most Nepalese students in Japan focus on working and earning income. 

New Zealand

A neighbor of Australia - New Zealand is another popular destination among Nepalese students. Many students who get rejected for the USA or Australia Visa apply for the abroad study in New Zealand. 

New Zealand offers international students with part-time and post-study work. In addition, the country allows settling in the country after study. 

Germany

Germany is the most popular destination in Europe for Nepalese students nowadays. The German Government invests hugely in its education system, which, in turn, attracts a large number of international students.

Nepalese students spend a few months to over a year learning the German language before applying to a German college or university.
