Is there any age limit to study abroad?

No, there is no official age limit to study abroad.

Some may start late or would want to work for few years before they take up higher studies. Many students want to study for the purpose of acquiring knowledge and then there are dependent visa holders who want to study in order to find a suitable job.

Why and how should I plan to study abroad in my mid-age?

With students, professionals, or researchers looking for opportunities to upskill or multi-skill themselves, studying abroad is a good option for those who cannot find quality education in their home country.

In fact, statistics show that a significant percentage of students between the age group of 30 to 50 enroll into graduate and undergraduate programs every year in foreign universities.

In case of any long gap between your last education and the one you are applying for, you may need to support it with a good rational and genuine reasoning, to be accepted by the university and upon completing other mandatory formalities you can study in any university in the world.
