Tuition in Romania runs €2,000–€7,000/year; living costs are approximately €300–€600/month (RON (lei)). For Surat families the funding pattern is usually a mix of an education loan secured against a diamond cutting-sector co-applicant plus FD-backed top-up — EEC Surat runs a free budget plan with up-to-date 2026 figures, currency conversion at the live RBI rate, and a side-by-side comparison against the cheaper destinations in the same Canada PR corridor.

Yes — international students in Romania can work 4 hrs/day for non-EU (without work permit); >4 hrs needs work permit during term time. For Surat students this matters because where textile-trade owners and diamond-industry families fund overseas study via SME-secured loans, and the catchment skews heavily toward Canada PR and Australia skilled-migration, and part-time earnings of 60–70% of living costs make a real difference to monthly remittances back home. EEC Surat briefs students from Adajan, Vesu, Citylight on the specific work-rights paperwork (SIN / TFN / NI / equivalent), tax registration and the regulated industries where Indian students typically find part-time work in Romania.

Romania offers: 9 months. Romania is a secondary corridor from Surat (the primary flow goes to Canada PR), but EEC handles Romania admissions for Surat families at the same level of detail — and the PSW pathway is the single biggest reason Surat families choose Romania over cheaper alternatives. MBBS €6,000–€7,000/yr (total 6yr: ₹15–23L). Min wage RON 4,050→4,325/month (two-tier 2026). RON not EUR. Living costs ~€250/month — among cheapest in EU EEC Surat maps the PSW timeline against the Canada PR-style PR / long-term residency route most Surat families ultimately target.

Top universities in Romania: Carol Davila University of Medicine (Bucharest), Babeș-Bolyai University, Iuliu Hațieganu University of Medicine. EEC has direct-admission relationships with several of these and routinely places Surat students through them — the shortlist EEC Surat hands a walk-in student is filtered first by textile-trade owners and diamond-industry families fund overseas study via SME-secured loans, and the catchment skews heavily toward Canada PR and Australia skilled-migration, so the recommendation is rarely a generic top-5 list. Profile-fit shortlisting is free.

Language requirements for Romania: IELTS 5.5+ / TOEFL Band 4.0+. EEC Surat runs in-house IELTS, PTE, TOEFL and Duolingo coaching across 5 branches — students from Citylight, Piplod, Dumas commute in for speaking / writing batches and can switch between classroom and live-online slots between attempts. For Surat test-takers the most common path is one IELTS attempt → one PTE attempt if the IELTS speaking band falls short of the Romania cut-off.

Romania university intakes: October, February. Application deadlines fall 3–6 months before each intake. For Surat families the practical calendar is: pick a target intake → book the language test 5–6 months out → lodge applications 4 months out → file the visa 2 months out. EEC Surat runs this timeline against the Surat academic year (since the local university calendar often overlaps with Romania application windows) and reminds students from Dumas, Althan, Katargam of every deadline by SMS / WhatsApp.

Yes — key scholarships for Romania: Romanian Government Scholarships for non-EU students. Most Romania universities also offer merit-based and need-based awards on top. For Surat students, EEC additionally flags state-specific Gujarat scholarship schemes and CSR scholarships from diamond cutting-sector employers (relevant because many Surat families have a co-applicant from that sector). Scholarship shortlisting is included in the free EEC Surat counselling.

EEC runs a Romania study-abroad desk in Surat — 29+ years, 5 branches, free counselling, university shortlisting, SOP/LOR preparation, visa support and pre-departure guidance. Romania is a secondary corridor from Surat (the primary flow goes to Canada PR), but EEC handles Romania admissions for Surat families at the same level of detail, so the Surat desk has built deep familiarity with the documentary patterns the Romania consulate looks for in files coming out of Gujarat.
