Question 5

What are the durations of each services?

Accepted Answer

Wherever applicable, duration is mentioned in the description of the services and/or courses.

Question 6

Why are you charging service fee where some of the agents offer free services ?

Accepted Answer

Many agents may offer you free admission service because they usually have tie-ups with some of 3rd tier universities. They will only send you to those 3rd tier universities, and get their commission from there. Ask them to send you to an IVY League university, and see there reaction. Their opinion is biased.
In addition, by going through those agents, you loose your chance of getting scholarships. Because if a university is paying commission to an agent, then it will not offer you a scholarship.
Having said that, we will do our best to send you to a school that you deserve based on your profile and NOT a school that pays a commission to us. We care about student.

In nutshell, paying a small amount of fee to us may eventually save you thousands of dollars and maybe your career also.

Note: Many of our students get fully or partial scholarship or financial aid.

Question 9

Why should I buy your services when everything is available on youtube and other online sources ?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is information out there on youtube and other online platforms but its so scattered that you would spend majority of time absorbing, the time you would otherwise could use to build profile. Secondly, keep in mind there is good information out there as well bad information that could lead you to wrong choices, wrong decisions. Often times its hard to cross verify the authenticity of the information provided online. Therefore its always helpful to trust someone who has gone through the process and have experience of advising thousands of other students.
Finally, i would say, if you are tight on budget, it is justifiable to spend hours and hours on google the answers, But if money is not an issue, then you should definitely take help from expert. In many cases, it might save you a year ( many students end up taking a year off as the they were not able to find the right information on time.)

Question 10

Can you guarantee me UG admission in an Ivy League university ? I have all straight A's (perfect GPA) ?

Accepted Answer

Having all A's or a perfect GPA will not guarantee you an admit from Ivy League. If so were the case, the majority of applicant would get into Ivy league, as majority of student who apply, they apply with almost GPA. But still they get rejections. The acceptance rate of Ivys is less that 10%, some of them even have less than 5%.
All Ivys work on holistic admission basis, which means they look at overall profile of the candidates rather than mere GPA number. They look at extracurricular activities, awards and honors, essays, Letter of recommendations, trends in the GPA, School report and many other factors. GPA is just one component, one factor in the admission decision.
So in nut shell, it all depends how is your overall profile. But nevertheless, we can still polish the profile and help you put your best foot forward so that you get into a school that you deserve based on your profile. If it is Ivy worthy, you will get in.

Question 11

Question 13

Do I need to really spend so much money on admission counseling ?

Accepted Answer

Coming to the second point, Money: we personally think that working with us will eventually save you money on various fronts. for example, saving money on sending test scores by carefully choosing universities; saving money on college application fee, yes we advise student on application fee waivers as well; and if you are lucky, you could get financial aid and save thousands and thousands of dollars, as we advise students on scholarships as well.
