if there is no placement guarantee, what is the use of spending so much? Global exposure and everything is fine but the end of the day RoI is the most important

How long does it usually take to hear back after submitting the application?
are there any scholarships available for international students? If yes, how difficult is it to get one?
Thatâs a very valid concern, and ROI is absolutely important.
In regards to placements, rather than âguaranteeingâ jobs, which often leads to low-quality or forced placements, the university invests in career services, networking events, employer partnerships, and alumni connections. This allows students to secure positions aligned with their career goals, not just a generic placement.

Tbh, the real ROI of a masterâs isnât just the first job, but the acceleration it brings over your career. Graduates typically move into higher-paying, leadership-track roles faster, meaning the degree pays off significantly in the medium-to-long term â especially with an internationally accredited degree.
As an international student, you would be eligible for country grants along with a certain early bird discount
