Your first call will be with a senior, not a junior intake agent.
You will not be handed off to a call centre. The counsellor who picks up will have placed at least 100 Kerala students in the destination you are considering, and will know your file by the time they call you back.

Honest answers
Questions Kerala parents always ask us.
The first call is always with a senior. These are the answers we give in those calls, in writing.
No. Counselling, university shortlisting, eligibility checks, and document review are completely free. We earn from university partnerships, not from student fees. If anyone tells you otherwise, that's not Cokonet.
Same owner, same Trivandrum office, two separate companies. Cokonet Academy was founded in 2010 for tech and language training. Cokonet Overseas Pvt Ltd was registered in 2023 as a dedicated overseas education company. Both serve the same families. Your Overseas application includes free Academy training.
Germany is among the safest destinations for Indian healthcare workers, with a regulated 5-day work week, 30 days paid annual leave, healthcare benefits, and family reunification visas processed in 4 to 6 months. Salaries for registered nurses range from ₹2.5 to 3 lakh per month. Many Kerala nurses bring their spouse and children within the first year. Source: German Federal Employment Agency context, Lanstitut-supported Kerala recruitment data.
For Kerala students under tight budgets, three options work well in 2026. Latvia, Lithuania, offer EU-accredited Masters degrees for €3,000 to €5,000 a year. Malta offers up to 50% scholarships and pays-after-visa schemes. Germany is tuition-free at public universities but requires German language. Total annual budget including living can be under ₹15 lakh for the Baltic states.
Yes, in specific countries and routes. Sweden allows your spouse to arrive on a residence permit with full work rights from day one. Germany allows family reunification within 4 to 6 months of your job contract. UK and Canada have tightened rules in 2025 but spousal dependents on Masters routes are still allowed. We will tell you exactly which countries fit your family situation in the first call.

A free, 30-minute conversation with a senior counsellor is often enough to bring clarity to a decision that has been on your mind for months. There is no obligation to apply through us afterwards.
