Education Abroad

What Education Abroad does

Education Abroad is a privately-held Indian education consultancy founded in 2016 and headquartered in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. The company facilitates MBBS (medical bachelor) admissions for Indian students at partner medical universities abroad, addressing the structural shortage of affordable medical seats in India relative to the ~20 lakh annual NEET test-takers. The firm operates a 17-office physical network across India (spanning Noida HQ, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhopal, Chennai, Aurangabad, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Indore, Kanpur, Kolkata, Kota, Mumbai, Patna, Pune, Raipur, Trivandrum, and Visakhapatnam), supplemented by corporate offices in New Delhi and Mumbai, and an event-driven acquisition motion through MBBS Admission Expos in cities such as Kanpur, Latur, Patna, and Kota.

The company's core service offering is end-to-end MBBS admission facilitation, including personalized counseling, university selection, document submission, visa processing, travel arrangements, accommodation and Indian mess facilitation, post-arrival support, and licensing exam coaching (FMGE/NExT, USMLE, PLAB). Education Abroad does not operate any proprietary technology — service delivery is entirely human-driven through expert counselors — and has no mobile app, API, or software product. The technological surface is essentially a website with content marketing, country-specific landing pages, blog/news SEO content, and testimonial pages, alongside physical office infrastructure.

Education Abroad works with 112+ partner universities across 22 countries, with primary destination markets including Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Uzbekistan, and Caribbean Islands (Guyana, Barbados). The company employs a commission-based revenue model: counseling is provided free of charge to students, and the firm earns referral/placement commissions paid by partner universities. Other revenue-adjacent services include FMGE/NExT coaching and ancillary facilitation (visa, travel, accommodation). The company has counseled 10,000+ students since inception with 6,000+ currently enrolled abroad. No external funding, parent company, or subsidiary relationships are disclosed; the business is described as independently, founder-owned.
