Congraluation for successful R2Ied. Of Course I am planning the same.....

My confussion is reg. Undergraduate/Graduate education for our kids.

I believe that we should keep the option for our kids to R2A open. In such case what is better for the kids?

To have education in USA or in India? We are all successful in USA but I have sincere doubt reg. quality of education in India.

Please read following article:

Will it make sense to R2A for kids eudcation?

For your numbers, I am not planning R2A . Kids will start going to college, and I'll the usual IIT, NIT, BITS etc., then private colleges, whatever works out. If I need to make use of Foriegners quota cum fees, so be it. This is for Bachelors. After this hopefully they can decide.

I am not sure about your kids ages. Recently, Govt of India opened the doors for foreign universities in India. So, there will be huge list of options for your children when they are ready for graduation. Its not unusual for a typical Indian to run after the best school in India. Now, IIT and IIMs and tomorrow Harvard India or some XYZ....

Kids (alone) R2A may be the best option for their graduation. why whole package again ? :)

BTW, which part of India are you planning to R2I?

not my kids either till the end of bachelors.

Thanks for this post. We are looking at moving to USA in next 4 months. My kid is in grade 10 now. How difficult is this transition? Please share your experience. Any pointers on how the CBSE syllabus credits will be converted to US public school credits will be helpful. Also any additional requirements such as immunisation etc.
