Global Tree Abroad Education , Best Overseas Education Consultants

Do you feel like you are a wizard or witch trapped in the muggle world? Are you still looking out of your window for the owl to bring you your Hogwarts letter? Then we have the perfect answer for you! When you decide to study abroad, why not pursue your childish dreams and study at a university that will make you feel like you are in Hogwarts

1. Oxford University, UK

Oxford University is about the closest you can get to your dreams of being at Hogwarts while you study abroad. This old and imposing university was actually used for filming a number of scenes in the Harry Potter movie. Sitting in the great Hall at Oxford you can very well imagine that you are a wizard waiting for the sorting hat to assign you your house

2. Harvard University, US

Harvard University is one of the oldest and most prestigious colleges in the United States and the world. It is reputed to have churned out a number of statesmen, business leaders and groundbreaking scientists. But if you are one of the blessed few to study abroad in this college, you may but wonder whether it is not producing a few witches and wizards for the spirit world too

3. Yale University, US

Yale University is known for its excellence in education as much as for its sibling rivalry with Harvard. The Bulldogs and the crimson rivalry is as well-known as in the sports field as it is in academics. Apparently now students who study abroad in Yale can also see it compete with Harvard in creating a Hogwarts atmosphere on campus

4. Duke University, USA

The Duke University in North Carolina is on first look probably not as easily recognizable as a place for Potter maniacs, but walk in a little deeper and you will find that you can indeed relive your Hogwarts dreams as you study abroad on campus. In fact the campus has been found to be so akin to the wizard school that a fan has created a Weasley Clock[i] while studying at the University.

5. Durham University, USA

If you ever wished to study abroad at a university with a magical campus then Durham University is your best choice. The arches and pillars of the campus will make you imagine that there are witches brewing and wizards casting spells at every turn of the campus. If you are looking for a fun and magical educational experience in the muggle world, then Durham is a pretty good option for you

6. University of Notre Dame, US

Walk into campus at University of Notre Dame in Indiana and you will not be blamed if you think you have been magically teleported to the world of Harry Potter and his fellow wizards. The lush green campus combined with the Gothic architecture play tricks on your eyes as you study abroad at this university and you cannot help wonder if the student walking in front of you is actually is a wizard disguised as a muggle or muggle himself.

Of course, the main driving factor for any student to study abroad is pursuing the right academic course for his career, but if you can indulge your love for Harry Potter while you study abroad, then we say more power to you! As we say in the Potter world – Aberto! - may your study abroad open the doors to many successes!

Reflections on the life and Teachings of Mahatma Gandhi on the occasion of his Jayanti

Global Tree Best Overseas Education Consultants , Father of Nation

Global Tree wishes Happy Gandhi Jayanti, salutes our Father of Nation

“Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth”

Albert Einstein on Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi’s life has always been steeped in high values, high thinking and high action. His entire life is a lesson to one who follows his history. His life has shown us the power, that one person can have in influencing world events and has been an inspiration to scores of people across generations and across national borders. He was against the brutality of the British regime and sought to overthrow the yoke of British oppression over the Indian masses, but at the same time he cherished a warm and loving relationship towards the people of Britain which can be seen by his close friendships with Lord and Lady Mountbatten, Her Highness, the Princess of Wales and many others.

Mahatma Gandhi an inspiration to all

In today’s world of increasingly strict border policies, and countries building walls to keep others out, it is an example of his outstanding legacy that his teachings, and his philosophy have found an echo not just in India, but countries around the world. Indeed it was his non-violent protests and Satyagraha for seeking Independence for India that inspired many world leaders such as Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King to take up similar struggles for their own causes. Today almost everyone from Bill Gates to Malala Yousafzai have cited the Mahatma as one of their inspirations.

Mahatma Gandhi’s study abroad stint in UK

He is a perfect example of someone who went to study abroad and used the knowledge and cultural influences he gained there for the betterment of his own country and countrymen. It is a well-known fact that Gandhiji went to study abroad in UK for his law degree, in opposition to some of his family members, but not many know that he too faced many of the challenges that are faced by present day students who go to study abroad. The difficulties he faced and the means he took to overcome them can be an inspiration to the students of today. In his own words, he was miserable at first and unable to cope, but slowly adjusted himself to life in a new country. Another interesting fact about his life is that it was while he went to study abroad, that he came across an English translation of the Bhagavad Gita by Sir Edwin Arnold, which was a great influence on the rest of his illustrious life[i].

Gandhiji’s inspiration led Indian woman to study abroad

In an interesting anecdote, a lady speaks of how a close encounters with the Mahatma, inspired her mother to study abroad[ii]. Though Gandhiji was an advocate of all things Swadeshi, it is indeed heartening to see that his courage and steadfastness have been an inspiration for women who are seeking to break out of stereotypes.

Chandana Kalelkar had the great honor of observing the Mahatma and his principles at Rajkot in the year 1939, he so inspired her with his fearlessness in the face of opposition and violence, that when she was offered a chance to study abroad at a university in US, she did not let her relatives opposition faze her, but decided to take up the scholarship that was offered to her and study in US and get a masters in sociology and psychology from Boston University in the 1930’s– a time when it was almost unheard of for an Indian women to study abroad. She became one of the first Indian women to study abroad and get a masters from a top university in USA.

Gandhi Jayanti celebrated by Indian immigrants and others across the world

Many countries around the world take part in Gandhi Jayanti celebrations, which is celebrated as international peace day. The celebrations are mainly spearheaded by the immigrant Indian communities. In Britain the India league along with the Indian High Commission in London celebrates Gandhi Jayanti at Tavistock Square. The event is usually attended by the Mayor of Camden, many Asian Members of Parliament, Peers, The High Commissioner of India to UK and other distinguished guests.

In USA, the event is celebrated by the Indian consulates in different states of US as well as many private and public organizations. Many schools to commemorate the event by including some project in relation to Gandhiji’s teachings and life for their students to complete as per their grade level. In Canada too, Gandhi Jayanti is celebrated across most of the provinces of Canada, with people and politicians alike from all communities coming together to pay homage at his statue.
