Demand for overseas study at all-time high, but don't panic - Sable International's Brent Morris

Loading player...
There has been a massive uptick in applications to study abroad and overseas universities are getting hundreds of thousands of applications. That is according to Brent Morris, managing director: Study Abroad of Sable International. Morris told BizNews that parents, and students who are thinking of studying elsewhere, should however not panic and advised parents not to overload their offspring with additional programmes. He said it was a lot simpler than you would think to get South African students into overseas universities. South Africans are popular because of the diversity they provide and Sable International has a 99% success rate with students they put forward. They don’t charge students for the service. – Linda van Tilburg Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
