From failure to dream success – Varun Agarwal’s story

Once again thanks for helping me improve my SOP. Your comments really played a major role!

Most places don’t encourage you to apply to ambitious schools – they ask you to only apply to universities where you will almost certainly get in (the ‘safety’ schools), so that they will definitely have a ‘success’ story. Nistha’s different. Not only does she encourage you to apply to ambitious schools, she also helps you narrow down on the ones which match your interests best. Her advice is encouraging, and also practical at the same time; you can definitely see that she’s been through all thi… Read more

Thank you for the honest feedback on the SOP. The preparation for the SOPs helped me in the interviews and I would recommend Nistha for a friend looking for higher studies especially in US

‎Nistha has one of the best strategies drafted out to work on your applications. Working with her on my M.S applications was such an interesting as well as enriching experience. One of the things I like about her work style is her attention to detail and how she takes in your inputs as a client as well.

Most of my friends initially suggested not to join scholarstrategy and instead join some local consultancy as they felt this was not a proper one. But after going through the services you offer, reading your answers on quora I felt that scholar strategy is way better than other consultancies who lack basic knowledge. Though some may argue that the methods employed at scholar strategy were little bit different but I personally am very satisfied as this is what I was looking for instead of someone… Read more

When I started with my MS application process, I was clear that I required a mentor, who would guide me through the process, and not someone who would give me a free ride to an average university and ask me to feel grateful for it. Nistha proved to be the best mentor I could hope for. I always had to be at the top of my game while working with her. Right from university selection, to drafting my statement of purpose and letter of recommendations, her valuable feedback helped me excel. Her fee… Read more

I highly recommend scholar strategy because unlike other Counselling agencies, it helps aspiring students to work on SOP on their own. No one spoon feeds which infact is better and efficient way of advising. Ironically I feel more independent and confident if and when I apply to more universities and might skip counselling sessions in the future. The best part is that by joining scholar strategy one becomes a part of a highly interactive and vibrant network of students studying or applying … cr… Read more

I am really thankful for your help with my SOP. I am not planning to apply to any other programs since UW program was my first choice. I will be sure to share a good word with prospective candidates who reach out to me.

Nistha is a wonder woman. She is committed to your success so all I ask of you is to trust her process, and commit to it too. From the first conversation I had with her, she has been candid in helping me plan my goals and ensured that I put my best foot forward while crafting my story. There were times when I felt under-confident but Nistha’s coaching expertise, widespread student/professional network, honest feedback and focused approach instilled the confidence I needed. I highly recommend eve… Read more

I would like to thank Nistha for her guidance and support during the application process. The brainstorming and one-one sessions were very helpful and I cannot thank Scholar Strategy enough.
