Greece ranks 19th among the states with foreign students in German universities, with 6,886 students studying in the country for the academic year 2022-2023, according to recent data from the Federal Statistical Office of Germany (Destatis) and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

The quality of education in Greece is steadily declining. At least that's what the Greek students' performance in the most recent OECD-organized PISA (Program for International Student Assessment) competition in 2022 indicates. In the last 10 years, Greek pupils have performed worst in text comprehension, math and science, the three areas in which the competition evaluates proficiency.

Turkish students who prioritized quality education when choosing a university abroad are now keener on enrolling in institutions that offer scholarships or are in a place where they can work side by side, a survey prepared by a foreign education consultancy company has revealed.

As more and more students choose to study abroad, many are also interested in working while pursuing their education. Nevertheless, international students often have a lot of questions about the process, including whether it's possible, how to do it if a work permit is needed, the number of hours allowed, and how much can I make.

The number of foreigners studying higher education in Bulgaria is increasing. In the academic year 2021/2022, their number is 16,525, which is 8.2% of all students in the country, reported the press center of the Council of Ministers. In 2013, their share was twice as small - 4.1%.

What else more than studying abroad can shape and mold students into well-rounded individuals who understand people from different cultural backgrounds and embrace people's perfections alongside their flaws? Experiencing new places and gaining a fresh perspective of the world while earning credits towards their degree is a dream for most students.
