Rupesh Regmi, had dreams of pursuing a career in aeronautical engineering right after high school. However, since the field was not available in his home country of Nepal, Rupesh applied to universities in the United States along with his friends.

Unfortunately, he was not accepted for aeronautical engineering and was only offered a place in computer science. Undeterred, Rupesh began researching alternative options and stumbled upon a unique opportunity in China.

He discovered a university with an exceptional reputation for aerospace engineering, globally ranked and boasting a significantly lower tuition fee compared to American institutions. Realizing that this opportunity was a no-brainer, Rupesh made the bold decision to pursue his dreams in China.

Rupesh's journey from Nepal to China not only showcased his determination but also highlighted his ability to think outside the box and seize opportunities. His story serves as a reminder that sometimes the path to success lies in unconventional choices, and with perseverance, one can turn setbacks into stepping stones towards achieving their goals.

Rupesh founded WiseAdmit to help others pursue their dreams.
