Why Study Abroad
At CGE's, we don't just counsel students.
We partner in their journey of transformation.
The Finest Education
The ACT® test is the leading US admissions test, measuring what students learn in high school to determine academic readiness for college. The main four ACT test sections are individually scored on a scale of 1-36, and a composite score (the rounded whole number average of the four sections) is provided.
Facilities Like No Other
Cutting-edge labs, modern libraries., advanced research centers, and vibrant campuses-abroad, learning extends far beyond classrooms.
A Melting Pot of Culture
Studying abroad is an immersion into diverse perspectives, cultures and friendships that last a lifetime. It's how you truly become a global citizen.
A Conducive Environment
High living standards, safety, and student-friendly cities create the ideal setting for academic and personal growth.
The preparation and planning required to study abroad can be a nightmare for many, but with us it will be a breeze. Navigating your path to global success, step by step.

The CGE Story
For over 34 years, Council for Global Education has stood as a beacon for students with dreams that reach beyond borders. Founded by visionary mentors Rajesh and Sudhir Arya, CGE was built on the belief that global education should not be a privilege - it should be a possibility for all.
What began as a pioneering initiative in 1991 has grown into a trusted global advisory that has guided more than 39,000 students to top universities worldwide. The founders’ unique blend of experience, compassion, and strategic insight has shaped generations of learners-many of whom now return to seek guidance for their own children.
CGE is not just an education consultancy. It is a legacy of mentorship, a community of achievers, and a launchpad for global futures.
Here, every student is seen. Every dream is understood. And every journey is guided with expertise, purpose, and heart.
This is not just what we do. This is who we are: mentors for life.
