01
Education loans
Secured bank loans (SBI, Canara, Union Bank) run to ₹1.5 crore against property; unsecured loans from HDFC Credila, Avanse and Auxilo typically reach ₹40–75 lakh for shortlisted universities. The loan file is prepared with the admission file, so the sanction letter is ready for the visa.
02
Scholarships
Chevening, GREAT and Commonwealth in the UK; DAAD in Germany; Government of Ireland awards; university merit awards of 10–50% that are often automatic on a strong application. Every shortlist marks which awards you can realistically win.
03
Part-time work, planned properly
Most destinations allow around 20 hours a week in term, which comfortably covers living costs. Tuition is planned separately in your written plan, so the visa file is strong from day one. The post-study work visa turns the degree into a job, and it is weighed in every recommendation.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is the first consultation free?
Yes. The first consultation is free and carries no obligation. You receive a written shortlist whether or not you proceed with us.
Is the visa application prepared in-house?
Yes. Your visa application is prepared and lodged by the same team that secures your admission or job offer, with one case manager from start to finish.
Can my family join me?
Usually, and we plan it from day one. Ireland's Critical Skills permit and Germany's Blue Card let your spouse join immediately with work rights; the UK, Australia and New Zealand allow dependants on most skilled visas; the UAE lets you sponsor family from a salary of AED 4,000. Student visas in the UK and Ireland generally do not allow dependants, and we will tell you that before you choose a course.
Which countries issue work permits to chefs from India in 2026?
Ireland (General Employment Permit, two years' experience for chef de partie), Australia (chef is on the skilled occupation lists, including permanent routes), the UAE (employer-sponsored residence), Malta (Single Permit with the 2026 Skills Pass) and Croatia (stay-and-work permit). The UK and Canada closed their routes to new overseas chefs in 2025 and 2026. If you hold an offer from an employer in one of these countries, the permit and visa file can be prepared here.
Do you prepare Schengen and family visit visas?
Yes. Short-stay Schengen files (France, Italy, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland and others), UK and Ireland visit visas, UAE tourist visas, and parent and family visit visas for people already settled abroad.
I have a job offer abroad. Can Zolt Link prepare the work permit and visa?
Yes. Bring the offer letter and contract. The employer's registration, the role and the salary are checked against the permit rules of that country before anything is lodged, and the file is then prepared and submitted by the same team, with dependant visas planned alongside. Zolt Link prepares visa applications; it does not recruit workers for overseas employers.
Why does an overseas consultancy also advise on India?
Because it is sometimes the better choice. Where a strong Indian college or employer offers a better start at lower cost, we say so and help you secure it.
Which countries can I study in through Zolt Link?
The United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UAE, Malaysia, Singapore, Malta, Poland and Croatia for degrees, and Georgia, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and the Philippines for NMC-compliant MBBS. Each destination has its own page with courses in demand, indicative costs, scholarships and the post-study work route.
Which visa routes are open to nurses from India in 2026?
The UK Health and Care Worker visa (with NMC registration), Ireland's Critical Skills Employment Permit, Germany's recognition-plus-work-permit route with a reduced Blue Card salary threshold for nurses, Australia's employer-sponsored 482 and 186 visas and its skilled lists, and New Zealand's Green List for residence. The registration exam and language requirement differ for each and are set out on the country pages.
How strong will my application be?
As strong as the file allows: a realistic shortlist, every document checked against the official requirements on the day it is lodged, and a clear assessment of your chances before you commit. Admission is the university's decision and the visa is the government's; we prepare for both as if the file were our own.
What if a visa decision goes against me?
The letter is reviewed with you the same week. Where it concerns documents or funds, a corrected application is prepared; where it concerns eligibility, the next-best option, including a strong course in India, is ready in your plan. The terms for this situation are in your written agreement from the start.
Who do I pay the tuition fee to?
Directly to the university or college, into its official account, and you keep the receipt. Your tuition stays between you and the institution. Our own fee is agreed in writing beforehand and invoiced separately.
Can I work part-time abroad, and does it cover the cost?
Most destinations allow around 20 hours a week during term: the UK, Ireland and Malta 20 hours, Australia 48 hours a fortnight, New Zealand 25 hours, Canada 24 hours, Germany 140 full days a year. It comfortably covers living expenses; tuition is planned separately in your written plan, so the visa file is strong.
Do you work with students and families from anywhere in India?
Yes. Zolt Link works with students and families across India, from Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kochi and Mumbai to the smaller towns of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Consultations run by video call in English, Tamil, Malayalam and Hindi, documents are shared securely online, and families near the Tamil Nadu office are welcome to visit in person. Every file, wherever it starts, gets the same written plan and the same named case manager.
Where is your office?
The address is in the footer of this page. Consultations are held across India by video, and in person at the office by appointment.
