Dear Chief Executive,

STRATEGIC ALLIANCE FOR RECRUITING STUDENTS FROM INDIA FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN AMERICA

As you know, there is a great demand in India for pursuing higher education in America. India, with a population of 980 million, has a huge requirement for higher education at the undergraduate, graduate, doctoral, and professional levels. It is estimated that approximately 100,000 meritorious and financially capable Indian students seek higher education in America every year.

The Indus Foundation is an American professional organization dedicated to promoting the pursuit of higher education in America by Indian students. The Foundation is staffed by experts who are familiar with both the American and Indian education systems. The Foundation has extensive contacts with American universities/colleges and is ideally equipped for guiding the Indian students seeking admission to the American education system. It guarantees admission to all Indian students in suitable accredited American universities/colleges, provided the students fulfil the admission criteria. The details of our organization and the services it provides may be found at our web site www.indus.org

The Foundation is exploring the possibility of having a strategic alliance with your organization for identifying and recruiting students for study in America. The strategic alliance would require your organization to be responsible for promotion and publicity, pre-processing of applications, and counseling of students. This opportunity is commercially rewarding for you with each student paying an amount of Rs. 50,000 as fees for the services rendered by you and the Foundation. We expect that you would be able to recruit maximum number of Indian students every year. The revenues accruing thereby are to be shared with the Foundation on 50:50 basis. The expenditure to be incurred in India will be borne by you while the expenditure to be incurred in America will be borne by the Foundation.

You are required to recruit Indian students for admission at the undergraduate, graduate, doctoral, and professional levels. You may also recruit students for short term certificate/degree/diploma/continuing education programs, such as Executive MBA programs, etc. We request you to send us your organization profile, so that we are assured that you have the necessary organizational and financial infrastructure for undertaking this major activity. Upon receiving further information, we shall send you the strategic alliance agreement.

Thanking you and looking forward to a long term mutually beneficial relationship.

With regards,

Sincerely,


S.B. Anumolu
President
