How the Program
Is Structured
How the Program
Is Structured
The Reality of Moving to the U.S. Right After Class 12 -
For most students, it’s too much, too soon:
– 13,000 km away, right after school
– Living alone at 17 or 18
– No friends, family, or support system abroad
– Managing visas, housing, and finances — alone
– ₹2 crore cost upfront, all at once
– Adapting to a new education system overnight
– No clarity on what comes after graduation
This program offers a simpler, safer path —
Time to grow.
Time to prepare.
Time for families to plan, step by step —
With 2 years in India and 2 years in the U.S.
Step 1 — Start in Delhi (Year 1 & 2 at Shiv Nadar University)
You begin at Shiv Nadar University in Delhi-NCR — recognized by the Government of India as an “Institution of Eminence."
You build a strong foundation in finance, marketing, operations, strategy, human resources, business law, and economics — along with business analytics, where you’ll learn how to work with data and use it to make real-world decisions. The curriculum follows the same academic model used in the U.S.
You're also fully trained for the U.S. visa interview — with everything from documentation to mock rounds handled end-to-end.
By the end of Year 2, you're ready — academically, personally, and visa-approved — to move to the U.S. for the final two years.

Step 2 — Transfer to the U.S. (Year 3 & 4 at ASU)
In Year 3, you move to Arizona State University (ASU) — ranked #2 in the U.S. for employability among public universities*.
You build skills in business statistics, finance, AI in business, and big data.
Alongside academics, you're trained with real strategies to launch your career in the U.S. — from building your resume and portfolio to preparing for interviews and internships.
These two years prepare you to graduate with confidence — and take the next step: working in the U.S. through OPT.
