Hyderabad:
i20fever is spreading. This is no new
strain of fever, but a project run by students and professionals from various
engineering fields. The objective: To help students find the best
universities and provide visa guidance. Initiated by a group of engineers from Chaitanya
Bharathi institute of technology (CBIT )in 2002,i20fever has been instrumental
in helping US university aspirants save at least Rs25,000 to 30,000,which
otherwise would be spend on campus consulting firms. The
group has also created a website -www.i20fever.com --for students interested
in sending queries on higher education in the US. A group initiative to
provide free-of-cost service to aspirants, the website has recently been
redone and launched. Aravind Manduva, a software professional who works for
the project says," we have built a network of students from various US
universities. Through them we provide students from AP tips on GRE and other
means of aid." |
