Visa approval rates and requirements vary by country:

- US: Approval rate is around 39% for Indian students. You must show strong financial proof, a clear Statement of Purpose, and be ready for detailed scrutiny, including possible social media checks.
- UK: High approval rate, but documentation is closely checked. You need a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS), financial proof, academic records, and English proficiency (like IELTS).
- Ireland: Very high approval rate (about 95 - 97%). Requirements include an offer letter, financial proof, a solid study plan, and English language scores.
- Australia: Approval rate is about 60%. You need a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE), financial evidence, a Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) statement, and English proficiency.
- New Zealand: Approval rate is about 59%. You’ll need an offer from an NZQA-approved institution, financial proof (NZD 20,000/year), health and character checks, and English language scores.

Visa policies and approval rates are subject to change.
