Why Study in Bali?

- Lots of recreational activities
Thanks to its tropical location, Bali offers warm weather perfect for various activities on the island. You can head to the beach to surf, dive, snorkel, and do other fun things.
If you prefer activities on land, ride a motorbike, explore fascinating areas, hike on trails, and enjoy a peaceful time in the forests.
- Affordable for international students
Living and studying in Bali is considerably cheaper compared to the US, Europe, and Australia. There are good alternatives for an affordable stay, like renting a homestay instead of a villa, buying food in local markets instead of eating in a restaurant, and more.

The island of Bali is truly dreamlike
The jungles are lush, the volcanoes high enough to touch clouds, and the warm Indian Ocean surrounds the gorgeous beaches of the island that offer superb conditions both for surfing and other water sports. “The Island of Gods” is by far the most popular travel destination in Indonesia and one of the most famous islands worldwide.
Bali can be without a doubt described as a paradise. In addition to the beautiful landscape, the people in Bali are friendly and the lifestyle breezy. The lucky ones can stay in Bali for a bit longer and truly absorb the Balinese spirit and might also be better equipped to handle the Western achievement-oriented lifestyle when returning home.
