Let Us introduce Them to You!

The Study Overseas Site can provide colleges and universities with a fast, efficient and cost effective means of recruiting international students from around the world.

Why advertise on StudyOverseas.com?

Since 97% of academic establishments already have a website, this poses the question: Why The Study Overseas Site?

Obviously if a student has already decided which country he/she wants to study in, which college he/she wants to attend and which subject and course they want to undertake, then they should be able to communicate directly with that institution.

Most international students however need help and advice in finding answers to:
Which Country?
Which College?
Which Course?

The Study Overseas Site is designed to help them find solutions to these questions, whilst acting as a gateway to an institution's own website.

So how do students locate the websites they want to visit?

• By using a Search Engine
• By seeing the address advertised in a magazine or newspaper
• By using a link from another site
• By being told the address by someone else

The Study Overseas team have devised a number of marketing strategies to ensure that overseas students are encouraged to use the site which are explained in the following pages.

These student's are viewing Us shouldn't they be viewing You!

The Speed, Volume and Quality of Qualified enquiries is what international student recruitment advertising is all about.

As a consequence StudyOverseas has spent a great deal of time and money developing a new:

Unique Automated Response System:
This unique database system is fed by our 'Application Form' service and ensures that all of our clients receive detailed enquiries in a simple to use e-mailed report, supplied weekly direct to the client and in addition, to the admissions office (if required).

This e-report separates prospective students into three categories :

1. Full Fee Paying Enquiries
2. Partially Funded Enquiries
3. Scholarship Required

This allows the recruiter/admissions office, to process applications for further information in whatever order they deem suitable.

The Automated response system is a unique pre-screen program which only processes students who have:

• the appropriate entry credentials
• that have requested information for a specific degree
• in a specific country
• at a specific time of year
• and for a course which is offered by your institution.

The Student receives:
The system automatically forwards an e-mail to the prospective students to inform them that they have been pre-screened as a qualified enquiry and provides them with the e-mail addresses of prospective colleges that meet their respective criteria.

The Advertiser receives:
Full details of each student are naturally forwarded to advertisers ONLY provided they meet their full selection criteria.

This means that the pre-screened, qualified inquiries, will eliminate upto 80% of the administration time in reviewing the suitability of each enquiry and each of those applications are regarded as the property of each institution.

Unlike other website service providers we will never charge an additional fee for the enquiries which are sent from the Automated response system.

Your University will only receive immediate, identifiable response from International students who meet your program and level of study requirements.

Tired of unqualified response? - Let our' pre-screening'
system reduce your workload

Why Promote your Courses on Study Overseas

The Importance of Good Search Engine Positioning

The fact that the web is the fastest growing global research medium for International education means that prime search engine positioning is paramount. This is especially important when trying to reach overseas students who are in the process of trying to choose a college or university without a firm idea of where they want to study.

That is why our team of web designers have devised a program that keeps The Study Overseas Site on the front page of the major search engines, including:

Aol, Yahoo, Altavista, Infoseek, Lycos, Hotbot, Looksmart, Ask Jeeves, msn, Netscape, Northern Light, Google, Excite, and many others.

The major search engines frequently change the way in which they scan websites and prioritize prime listings, our web designers continually ensure that our website homepages meets the key buzzword requirements from these search engines.

This means we are committed to coverage on the most successful search engines which are accessed as a premium method of research for international education on the worldwide web.

For example

Try keying in a general search term such as 'university advice' or 'overseas study advice' into Google, infoseek, yahoo, or go.com

MediaWebs & StudyOverseas go Face to Face

The global face to face venues of International education exhibitions are also an important method of branding our commitment to serving International students. We regularly attend the major international education exhibitions in order to promote StudyOverseas and encourage students to use our services.
