A large number of Saudi and expatriate students showed keen interest in learning about overseas education during the four-day educational exhibition — Middle East Education and Training Exhibition (MEETES) — that concluded here over the weekend. Students were accompanied by their parents and sought both information and counseling at the exhibition.
I am impressed by the facilities for higher education available in some overseas destinations including Malaysia, India and Switzerland, Abdullah Al-Rajhi, an IT undergraduate student at King Abdulaziz University, told Arab News. I find the facilities excellent and far cheaper in some Eastern countries in comparison to the West, and I would like to go to one of those countries for advanced studies.
Adnan Dossary, another university student, said: I am back here after discontinuing my business management education in the United States. I may be going to one of the Eastern countries for the same course.
