It’s the perfect place for international students to broaden their horizons and seek inspiration. The country is the second largest population in the world with over 1.2 billion people residing in the any of its 28 states. According to the great American author Mark Twain, “India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great-grandmother of tradition.” Though his words might seem hyperbolic at first, once you decide to study abroad in India, you’ll quickly find out for yourself that he really does not overstate the richness of culture and history that India has to offer.
