Over 5,000 students have registered for the Karnataka government’s Study Abroad initiative through the Karnataka Vocational Training and Skill Development Corporation ( KVTSDC), under the Department of skill development.
The department announced that students can also enroll by attending the day-long Study Abroad Expo at Hotel Lalit Ashok on Sunday (August 17). Over 60 international universities, presenting attractive academic opportunities for Karnataka students have already camped at the venue, an official statement said.
Public and private banks will set up stalls offering education loans at competitive interest rates. Karnataka Bank has assured the government of the most student-friendly financial packages.
“Studying abroad is no longer a privilege reserved for the wealthy. With our government’s initiative, even students from economically weaker backgrounds can now pursue higher education overseas without financial burden. This is the first-of-its-kind initiative in India, making global education accessible to all sections of society,” said Dr. Sharanaprakash Patil, minister for medical education, skill development, entrepreneurship and livelihood*.
Unlike private programs that end support once students leave India, the government-backed scheme guarantees continued assistance overseas —covering welfare, academic progress, and legal aid. The expo also ensures transparency, offering free guidance from university selection to post-departure support, without agency fees.
