1 min read

Foreign universities are opening campuses in India. Southampton is in Gurgaon, Liverpool in Bengaluru, and Deakin and Wollongong in Gujarat's GIFT City. They charge ₹10-17 lakh per year. This is similar to top Indian private universities. The move aims to provide global education in India. However, experts warn that the full international experience may not be replicated. They say education is more than just a brand name. It includes diverse peers, global faculty, and unique opportunities. Students should consider if the high fees match job prospects in India. To succeed, these campuses need to offer true global experiences, not just a foreign name. (Updated 13 Oct 2025, 19:13 IST; source: link)
