Yes, your wife can still study abroad with a low academic percentage. Many universities consider more than just grades and offer alternative pathways.

- Canada, UK, and Australia are generally more flexible with lower academic scores, especially for foundation, diploma, or pathway programs.
- Work experience and strong English test scores (like IELTS or TOEFL) can help strengthen her application.
- A well-written Statement of Purpose (SOP) that explains her academic journey and goals is important.

Foundation or pathway programs are good options to bridge any academic gaps. For tailored guidance on suitable countries, programs, and next steps, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
