Top colleges which you can consider are Indian Institute of Computer and Hospitality Management (IICHM), Nadia (West Bengal), University of Technology and Management (UTM), Shillong and School of Arts and Tourism, Indore (Madhya Pradesh).

Can you share your academic scores? 5.5 band is not easily accepted as Sweden is also very competitive. I will advice you to check university websites for admission requirements. I would suggest you retake IELTS, as your score will not be accepted by any foreign university.

The admission procedure requires the candidates to present himself / herself for a written test and /or personal interview as may be stipulated from time to time. Previous year's question papers are available on the website / in the library for reference use only.
