The U.S. Consulate General Mumbai is getting “real” with its approach to promoting U.S. undergraduate education to India.

The consulate is looking for undergraduate institutions to participate in a reality TV show to air in India that promotes educational opportunities in the U.S., according its website.

Three colleges will be selected for the show, which will be co-produced by the consulate.

The show, which will follow two Indian undergraduate students as they visit U.S. -campuses, is slated to air in the summer of 2013 and reach an estimated audience of 25 million viewers.
