Yes, it is possible to study outside your country after completing 10th grade, but there are a few things to know first. Most countries don’t accept students into university-level programs right after 10th. Instead, you’ll need to complete high school-level studies in that country or choose a foundation or diploma course first.
For example, in countries like the UK, Canada, or Australia, students can join a pre-university or foundation program after 10th grade. These programs usually last 1 to 2 years and prepare you for a bachelor's degree later. They include subjects like math, business, or science, depending on what you want to study in the future.
If your long-term goal is to do an MBA or MIM, it’s better to complete your 12th first, then go for a bachelor’s degree abroad. That path is more accepted by top universities and gives you better career options.
So yes, it is possible—but you’ll need to take a few extra steps before starting a full degree. Always check the entry rules of the country and speak to a study abroad advisor if you’re confused.
