Italy — consultancy service for Bangladeshi students
Public university tuition of €0–4,000 a year, a regional scholarship that can cover housing and meals, and no blocked account requirement — Italy is the most affordable serious option for most Bangladeshi students.
No Visa, No Money — the agency service charge falls due only after the visa is granted. Before the visa there are limited processing costs only: file opening BDT 20,000 plus the application at BDT 10,000.

The first consultation and profile assessment
An honest read of your results, your English position and your budget — which countries are realistic and which are not. This step is free, before any file is opened.
Country, university and programme shortlist
A shortlist built on your profile and the funding you could qualify for — not on which application is easiest for us.
Application and offer letter
Submitted to the right intake through the right portal, then followed through to the offer or admission letter.
Document preparation
Academic paperwork, translation, notarisation and attestation in the right order, plus help writing the Statement of Purpose and the CV.
Proof of funds and the visa file
Bank statements and financial documents assembled to the standard the embassy expects — using your own real funds.
Visa application and interview preparation
Appointment booking, form completion, and preparation against the questions your embassy actually asks.
Pre-departure and after you arrive
Guidance on tickets, insurance and accommodation, and an introduction to students already studying where you are going.

Every country has its drawbacks. Better to know them now than after you have paid.
DSU is competitive and regional. Winning it is not guaranteed, and the amount and rules differ by region — plan your budget as though you will not get it, and treat it as upside if you do.
Universitaly pre-enrolment is a hard gate. Miss the window and the intake is gone, even with an offer letter in hand.
From AY 2026/27 two dates govern the file: visa applications for Laurea, Laurea Magistrale and Diploma accademico courses must reach the consulate by 30 November 2026 (31 October 2027 for AY 2027/28), while a Master, PhD, Erasmus or foundation course has no national deadline, and institutions may validate pre-enrolment applications only up to their allocated international places plus a maximum of 20 percent. Universities may set earlier dates of their own, so pre-enrol as early as you can rather than aiming at the deadline.
Part-time work in Italy is genuinely harder without Italian. Budget on the assumption that work will not cover your living costs in the first year.
Public university deadlines are early — often eight to ten months before classes start. Students who begin in the summer for a September start have usually already missed it.

You can do this without us, and we have written down how, for free. If you read it and do it yourself, that is a fine outcome.
Shall we talk about this country?
The first consultation is free and opening a file is not a condition of it. We will start by telling you which country is realistic for you.
