How StudentFlow services work

No surprises

What did we assume?

Anything you did not tell us is listed here, so you can change it.

  • Every date is counted back from Dec 2026. A month on its own is treated as its first day.
  • We assumed you are still exploring, with one adult travelling and no children. Steps about assistance, access and medicines are shown to everyone, worded “if anyone needs it”, and nothing about anyone’s health or mobility is stored. A visit with no return date is planned as a visit of a few weeks. Add your dates when you save your plan to refine this.
  • We count every step from the beginning. If you have already done some, they are ticked off when you save your plan.
  • No departure city given, so the sample fare uses Delhi (DEL).
  • Due dates come from our journey rules. We do not predict how long any official application takes.
  • Sample prices from our demo partners — not a quote. Official fees are set by the authorities, so we link their pages and never show an amount.
