About The Chopras

The Chopras — now branded TC Global — is one of India's most established overseas education groups, founded around 1999 and having guided over 2.5 million students since inception. With 20+ branches across India (and additional offices in Singapore and Nepal), they offer full-service support from initial career counselling through university application to visa lodgement. Their TC Global platform connects students directly to 1,500+ partner universities across 40+ countries, and they are one of the few Indian consultancies authorised to deliver NCUK foundation year pathways into UK universities. Their CMAP+ psychometric assessment tool is used to help students identify suitable disciplines before committing to an application strategy.

Our research

ConsultancyCheck's own assessment, from public records and the company's own materials. This is our judgement — not a summary of student reviews.

Strengths
  • 25+ years of track record — one of India's most experienced study abroad consultancies
  • Largest office network in the market: 20+ branches spanning major metros and Tier-2 cities (Chandigarh, Jaipur, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Hubli, Trivandrum, Cochin)
  • 1,500+ partner university relationships across 40+ countries — broad global destination coverage
  • Full study-abroad funnel under one roof: psychometric assessment, university selection, application, test prep, visa, and scholarships
  • Authorised NCUK centre — provides UK foundation year pathways not widely available through other Indian consultancies
  • TC Global student platform enables online shortlisting and application tracking with counsellor oversight
  • Claims 2.5 million+ students served and 300,000+ placements per year — scale that few rivals match
Limitations
  • !Large corporate structure may mean less personalised attention than a boutique consultancy; counsellor quality has been reported as variable by branch
  • !Primary focus is on Indian students — less relevant for applicants from other South Asian countries who may prefer agencies with local expertise
  • !Website and marketing material is heavy on statistics and light on independently verifiable data (e.g. visa success rates, specific university acceptance records)

How The Chopras get paid

Free for students

The Chopras does not charge students a placement fee. Like most education agents, it is paid a commission by the universities it places students into. That does not make its advice bad — but the agent is paid by the institution, not by you, so it has more financial reason to recommend a partner university than a non-partner one. Ask which universities it represents, and whether your shortlist is on that list.

Who it suits

  • Indian students applying abroad (UG or PG)
  • Students in Tier-2 Indian cities
  • UK-bound students via foundation year
  • Students wanting test prep and applications together

Frequently asked questions

The bottom line

TC Global (The Chopras) stands out as one of India's most established and wide-reaching overseas education consultancies. Their 25+ year history, 20+ branch network reaching Tier-2 Indian cities, 1,500+ university partnerships, and proprietary NCUK foundation pathway make them a credible choice for Indian students across all major destinations. The main trade-off is scale: with 300,000+ students per year, the experience can feel less personalised than a boutique agency, and branch quality varies. For students who want a single trusted partner to handle test prep, applications, and visa under one roof, TC Global is a strong starting point.
