Hottest Things About The Capital City DELHI
Delhi is definitely the best city in the world. I travel a lot but no matter what. I never get the homely feel in anyother part of India. I just love this city with every pros & cons of this warmth & beautiful place. Delhi, no matter what is the most beautiful city in the country . It's a happening city with full of spirit & still has a lot to do here. Delhi is very rich in cultures & traditions. The way its changing & developing is really something remarkable for its people. Its one of the prime cities of our country and a lovely place to stay in & this ever changing phase of delhi is not all new for me. The roads, the greenary & now the people play an important role in making the city a wonderful place to stay and this makes me feel happy . There is so much to do here because it is the epicentre of power. Delhi is one of the oldest and most historical cities dotted with ancient historical monuments. Delhi is hotter than hot because no matter , who you are, if u have a dream u can make it happen. Delhi encompasses everybody into its fold. Here people are quit classy & civilised too, what i like about the city is the greenary, its tradition, rich history & sense of looking forward to developments and innovations make the city a wonderful place to live in. Its has the wide & best roads in the country. Delhi is India's fashion capital because it's the hub of business of fashion with India's apex fashion body, the fashion design council of India making delhi its home. It was in delhi that the fledgling fashion industry of India took wing. What's more with speciality malls like DLF Emporio, select citywalk and square one and the Cresent in various parts of city. Delhi definitly has the potential to be the fashion hub. Its also have 5 distinct seasons like summer, monsoon, winter, autumn, spring, which many other stylish cities in india dont have. Several experimental designers are based in delhi. It is also a place for numerous export houses & buying agents and huge business is running in the heart of city called Canaught place . It's fashion scene is best described as a good combo of stylish & eclectic. Delhi is undergoing a transformation & is evolving as a true cosmopolitan city & it packs in twice the excitement of most other cities. on one hand the mystique of an ancient culture, Nizamuddin, the dargah and Humayun's tomb became a part of most beautiful place & monuments. Sundays were for trips to old delhi. What's especially moving about old delhi is the profound sense of religious tolerance: where else would you find a jain temple, shiv mandir, a gurudwara & a mosque, all within fivemin. of eachother. That's what I miss the most the sense of an ancient yet living civilization. the other delhi the modern has a plenty of charms too. It's where governments fall & rise, national budget gets decided, there is a doubleness to delhi that I find in few other cities, it is also rich in education. Delhi university is the asia's #1 university where students are coming from overseas to get education & numerous trainers are here to impart education & train students. & this is also the source of energy, it also plans and invests for the future & that's why delhi is now the great Indian city and its importance will only grow in this country.

Education Abroad
Most students going abroad choose a university by its rankings, often neglecting its location, which may or may provide the right exposure. Countries across the world are investing in education, particularly higher education, with the object of attracting international students. This is being done with the dual objective of promoting international ties & attracting foreign investment. Universities are also offering innovative schemes in terms of financial aid.
Most students who went abroad to pursue their higher education degrees did so for the love of learning and receiving a degree. Hence, earlier it was mostly the exceptionally bright & academically oriented students who went abroad. Today, education is becoming more application-oriented & viewed as an investment in terms of securing a job. Most indian students feel that studying in a university abroad will give them a multicultural exposure, & this is 1 of the key reasons they attribute towards their decision to pursue higher education abroad. Ironically though, this objective gets sidelined when they start the application process.
LOCATION WISE
Reiterating the importance of location. university's location can be beneficial in two ways: living in the vicinity of corporate firms facilitates easy reconing for an institute. it then becomes easier for firms to approach the institute in terms of placements & internships. second, if a university is located in a professional hub there is a strong likelihood for students to meet professionals in informal settings.
EMERGING TRENDS
Earlier most students who went to canada for higher education preferred to study in the universities of British columbia & york. but there has been a noticeable shift in the recent years with more & more students opting to study in the universities of Nova Scotia & New Finland. Canadian universities on their part are not very conscientious about rankings & there are only a few ranking agencies. Moreover students are not limiting there options to the MTV ( Montreal, Toronto & Vancouver) cities as they are realising that the cost of living is far more economical in smaller towns . infact it is easier for indian students to acclimatise themselves in smaller towns , as these towns are more welcoming towards indian & south east asian students, on the criterion of rankings, rankings can be a cursory consideration at best. students can refer to universities wwhich highly ranked, but they should necessarily do a thorough background research on the universities faculty & course content before applying to it. It is accreditation, location & quality of the course offered in comparison to other universitites which should guide students in terms of their selection of a university.
