Devi Mukherjee

Devi Mukherjee has been advising students from India on study in the United Kingdom and Ireland for 20 years. She has worked through several significant shifts in UK immigration policy, including the move from Tier 4 to the Student visa, the introduction of the Graduate Route, and the changes to English language test requirements that have affected Indian applicants considerably over the past three years.

Devi is particularly good at bridging the gap between what official guidance says and what it means in practice for a student from India. UK Home Office guidance is written for a general international audience. Devi advises students working with Indian academic certificates, Indian bank statements and Indian English language test scores, and the specifics matter. She knows where Indian applicants tend to hit complications and what to do about them.

Her articles on UK and Irish universities are written for students from India who are not simply asking whether they are eligible, but whether this is the right choice given their academic background, budget and what they want to do after graduation. That is a different question and it requires a different kind of answer. She holds an MSc in Physics and is based at AECC's Gurgaon office.
