Questions parents ask
Good to know
We live in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait or Oman. Can you still help?
Yes. Our office is in Bahrain, and families anywhere in the GCC can do everything online: counselling by video call, documents shared securely, and updates on WhatsApp. You're also welcome to visit us in Bahrain; from Saudi Arabia it's a drive over the causeway.
When should my child start the process?
Ideally 10 to 12 months before the intake. That leaves time for the shortlist, applications, offers and the visa. Later starts are sometimes possible, depending on the country and course.
My child is finishing school this year. Can they apply for a bachelor's?
Yes. We guide students from Indian, British, American, IB and Arabic-curriculum schools. Entry requirements differ by country and course, and some need an English test score. We check eligibility in the first session.
Do you process job or work visas?
No. Santamonica Study Abroad helps students who want to study. We don't process job or work visas.
Are the timelines on this page exact?
No, they are indicative. Each university sets its own deadlines, and visa processing times change during the year. Your counsellor gives you exact dates for your chosen courses.
