Benjamin Franklin once proclaimed “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.”
This is most evident in the field of higher education where a degree from a prestigious university can boost one’s career. Gaining a higher degree is equivalent to leveling up in a game and playing in a different league altogether. But before you can work for your degree, you need to get into a college of your choice. A typical Indian student has two paths:
1. Study in India: It is something we all are familiar with. The steps to enter your desired college is something like: Write entrance exam -> Submit your undergrad and/or high school grades and wait for the merit list.
2. Study overseas: Well, this one is more complicated but organized. You need to focus on your application, SOP, projects, aptitude tests, diversity factor, etc.
Here comes the role of study abroad mentors. They help students in their journey from application to a college till their acceptance in the university. It is not impossible to apply for foreign universities and secure a seat in your dream college. But engaging the help of a mentor can remove bottlenecks and make the whole process smooth. This also saves time of students who can devote it to preparation of aptitude tests or their final projects and exams. These mentors help in shortlisting universities based on your background, interests, scores and fee structure. They review your application as well provide feedbacks to increase your chances of acceptance.
What if these services were provided by people already enrolled in your dream college in your field? What if you pay only for what you use and not for frills? What if you want all these in the comfort of your homes without worrying about travel time and expenses?
A Friend Abroad provides all these and more. A Friend Abroad is a non-profit education advice startup. It connects aspirants to mentors directly without any third party intervention. Their services include: Essay reviews, mock interviews, resume reviews, scholarships information and housing assistant. The mentors are qualified and they provide host of information because they are experiencing these things first hand in college. These mentors have your best interest in their mind because they are paid to help you and not paid by universities to fill a seat(as is the case with some consultants). The icing on the cake is their low charges for these services.
Moreover, you don’t need to pay a large sum upfront. You pay for every service you use. If you are unsatisfied with the experience don’t sign for the next session. We have the best interest for you at heart
