Is abroad good for me to pursue my master's degree since my brother and cousin are in Canada or Australia and they say there are more opportunities?

Yes, studying abroad for your master's can be a great option, especially since you have family in Canada and Australia.

Both countries offer strong education systems, good post-study work options, and potential pathways to permanent residency. Having your brother or cousin there can also make your transition easier and provide support.

- Canada: Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) allows up to 3 years of work after graduation, helping with career growth and residency options.
- Australia: Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) offers 2-3 years of post-study work rights, depending on your qualification.

Choose the country and program that best match your career goals, budget, and long-term plans. If you need help comparing specific courses or universities, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
