How do I check whether a foreign degree is recognised in India?

Recognition depends on the profession and the regulator. Check with the relevant Indian regulatory body for your field before you commit. A Launchpad consultant will remind you to do this and help you know what to ask.

Can Launchpad apply for my Eastern Europe visa for me?

Launchpad provides guidance. It is not a licensed immigration consultancy and does not represent applicants before immigration authorities. Your Launchpad consultant can explain the options and what to check, and will tell you when you need a licensed immigration professional or should apply directly through the official channel.

Does Launchpad guarantee admission, a visa or a job in Eastern Europe?

No. Admissions, visas and hiring decisions are made by universities, governments and employers. Launchpad helps you prepare, understand your options and make informed choices, but cannot guarantee any outcome.

Destination guide

Study & work in Eastern Europe from India

Study and career guidance for Eastern European countries, for students and professionals in India.

Several Eastern European countries offer English-taught programmes to international students. Each country has its own rules, costs and recognition arrangements, so they should be compared individually rather than treated as a group.

If you plan a regulated profession such as medicine, it is especially important to check how a foreign degree is recognised in India before you commit - a Launchpad consultant will raise this with you early.

Who this tends to suit

Students looking for English-taught programmes outside the most commonly chosen destinations.
Families who want to compare cost, location and recognition carefully.
People who want guidance on questions to ask universities directly.

What to weigh up for Eastern Europe

Whether the programme and the university are properly recognised, in the country and in India for your intended career.
The language of instruction and the language of daily life and clinical or professional placements.
Total cost, including accommodation and living expenses.
The national visa and residence rules of the specific country.
Quality of teaching, student support and what graduates go on to do.

How a Launchpad consultant helps

Start from you: your background, goals, budget, timeline and constraints - not a standard list of universities or countries.
Talk through where it makes sense to go, using recent visa rules and the wider world situation, which can shift quickly.
Help you understand the options and trade-offs between destinations, courses and career routes, so the decision is yours and informed.
Point you to the official sources to check current requirements, and tell you plainly when a question needs a licensed immigration professional.
Stay on the journey with you - from the first call to settling in - rather than handing you off after one conversation.
