First, Get to Know the Country

Picture life in Georgia before choosing a university.

Many families decide on a destination knowing very little about it — and that uncertainty is where fear lives. Before discussing universities or fees, it helps to understand Georgia's cities, seasons, daily routine and safety.

Georgia is a small, welcoming country at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. Tbilisi, the capital, combines European-style architecture, walkable neighbourhoods, a growing café culture and a strong tradition of hospitality.

Indian students commonly find an international environment, access to familiar food and a growing peer community. Confidence in the destination is the foundation of a confident decision.
