Studying abroad phone plans?

When studying abroad, choosing the right phone plan ensures connectivity without excessive costs. Options include local SIM cards, international plans from your home carrier, or global eSIM services.

Local SIMs are cost-effective but require an unlocked phone. International plans from providers like AT&T or T-Mobile offer convenience but can be expensive. eSIMs, like those from Airalo, provide flexibility with data-only or full-service plans.

Compare coverage, data limits, and pricing. Check compatibility with your device and ensure emergency calling is supported. Always review roaming charges and contract terms to avoid unexpected fees while abroad.
