A ‘No Objection Letter’ issued by the Ministry of Education is a mandatory document for students pursuing higher education abroad. A student, after choosing a course, being invited by the institution to pursue the course, applying a visa, paying the fees, obtaining a ticket has also to worry if the state is ‘willing to permit you follow the course’, and apparently, they don’t like students ‘making their own decision’ about ‘when to study’ and ‘what to study’.
