Graduate outcomes
[Employment rate and median salary for that specific course, from the university's own published data — not the institution-wide figure.]
Before we talk about universities, we work out what the whole thing costs, what graduates from that course actually earn, and how many years the loan takes to clear. Some courses do not pay back. We will say which.
Tuition is roughly half the real cost. Set your figures below to see total outlay, loan burden and how long repayment takes on a realistic starting salary.
Indicative only, using placeholder living costs and loan terms, and ignoring currency movement, part-time earnings and tax. Salary figures are your own estimate, not a projection by us. Not financial advice.
Most study-abroad agents are paid a commission by the university they place you in. That is not wrong in itself — but you should know it, because it means the incentive is to place you somewhere, not necessarily the right somewhere.
Here is exactly how we are paid, and what we do about the conflict.
Ask us for the commission listAmbitious, realistic and safe — with the criteria that actually matter, not the ranking on a magazine cover.
[Employment rate and median salary for that specific course, from the university's own published data — not the institution-wide figure.]
[How long you may stay and work after graduating, and whether the course and institution actually qualify. This changes with policy — we check at the time.]
[Whether the degree is recognised by the professional body you will need it recognised by — back home as well as there.]
[Living cost, part-time work availability and whether the industry you want is actually in that city. A cheaper city can beat a better ranking.]
[Which awards you have a genuine chance at, with the deadlines. We apply for every one you qualify for — it costs you nothing.]
For some courses, a domestic programme plus two years of work experience beats an overseas degree financially. We will run that comparison if it applies to you.
Compare both routesLate starts cost money — rushed tests, missed scholarship deadlines, expensive visa slots.
[Budget, outcomes and whether going is the right decision at all.]
[[IELTS / TOEFL / GRE / GMAT] booked with room for one retake.]
[Shortlist of six, SOP drafted with you — not written for you — and LORs.]
[Compare offers on cost and outcomes. Loan sanctioned, scholarships confirmed.]
[Financial documentation, visa filing, accommodation and pre-departure briefing.]
Anything else, call [PHONE]. Parents are welcome in every counselling session — most of these questions are theirs.
Message a counsellor[Answer with the honest "it depends" and name what it depends on — field, destination, work rights, loan size. Say plainly that for some course-and-country combinations the answer is no.]
[Be direct: nobody can promise this, immigration policy changes, and a study visa is not a migration pathway by itself. Explain what the current rules allow and where to verify them.]
[Explain the commission model plainly, what you charge students directly if anything, and how you manage the conflict. A family that understands this trusts the rest.]
[Yes — say so. Most universities accept direct applications. Explain where an agent genuinely helps and where a motivated student can do it alone.]
[Explain university deposit refund policies, what is typically non-refundable, deferral to the next intake, and what you do to support a reapplication.]
[Give the legal hour cap and a realistic monthly figure — then say clearly what proportion of living costs that actually covers. Overstating this is how families get into trouble.]
[60] minutes with a counsellor. We start with what the family can actually afford, then work backwards to courses and countries — not the other way round.
