We are International Students Scholarship Consultants committed to empowering students — from high school to undergraduate and postgraduate levels — with access to top-notch, affordable education in elite universities through part and full scholarships.
The cost of studying abroad can be daunting. Beyond the substantial tuition fees, students face additional expenses such as visa applications, study permits, international relocation costs, and more. Our expert advisors specialize in identifying scholarships, internships, and admissions specifically tailored for overseas students, significantly easing the financial burden.
Our passion for scholarships was born from the joy of saving families from the financial burden of college tuition.

With our robust research tools and best practices, your scholarship potential is limitless.
## Strategic Focus: Where Dreams and Scholarships Align
35 years of insight into the college admissions process have taught us one crucial lesson: The key to slashing college costs is not a wild chase for private scholarships, but a sharp, strategic focus on the right schools. By tailoring your college list to places where you’ll thrive and stand out, you can tap into a wealth of institutional scholarships and merit aid. This precision approach is at the heart of what we do, ensuring that your scholarship search is smart, targeted, and ultimately, successful.
Feeling the weight of your growing college prep checklist? If each added task leads to more stress and doubt about the value of the effort, it’s a clear sign you need a stellar college advisor by your side.
For International students, studying abroad can be a daunting financial commitment, especially for international students. Universities worldwide often charge higher tuition for international students, which can be five to ten times more than the fees for local students in countries like the U.S and Canada. This does not even include the numerous costs associated with visas, study permits, and other necessary documentation for studying abroad.
