Testimonials

Having worked with Nistha to design my application strategy, I would say she is amazing and provided me really insightful feedback on SOP and assisted in shortlisting of schools. She gave me the confidence to apply for ambitious schools and promptly addressed my queries over e-mails. The best past of the Scholar Strategy service is that you’ll be certain of the timelines as to when you will receive the feedback. Their services will be a good fit for people who look for a mentor to guide them, th… Read more

Valliappan, TAMU (MIS)

Thank you so much for your help during the initial phase of the journey. It helped a lot in the way I explore and articulate about myself. It is definitely going to help me for internships and jobs in future for sure.

Kalyan, U Florida (MS CS)

I was pretty sure that I stand no chance of getting into a good university when I walked out of the GRE centre with a low score. But Nistha has proved me wrong!!. Nistha’s guidance has been more than valuable in writing SOP, LORs and listing Universities. She takes great care in reviewing documents and provides a candid evaluation. Her tailored counseling is what makes her successful. Thanks to Nistha, I find myself preparing to attend UIUC this Fall.

Surya Sumukh, Cornell (MS-CS)

The best part about Scholar Strategy is “No Spoon Feeding”. You get to write your SOP in your own words unlike other consultants. Nistha’s suggestions and subtle changes have increased the quality of SOP significantly. She is frank and never hesitated to tell her if something is not going well. I got to learn a lot from her through this experience. Thanks a lot. ?

Sumanth, USC, CU Boulder EE, VT MEng

After a disappointing application cycle for Fall 20 where I received rejects from all of my preferred universities, I reached out to Nistha and team for help for my Fall 21 applications. From the get go, the process is so streamlined and smooth. I received emails about next steps and how to go about everything. Nistha is very focused and has the ability to find notice and point out even the most minute details that make a huge difference in the quality of me essays and applications. The di… Read more

I am in awe of the value and momentum Nistha and ScholarStrategy offered to progression of my calling. Those SOP critiques and university evaluations deepened my belief that a person can do more than he assume. The structure of SS helped me realize that aspirations need perseverance and a strategy. Thank you so much again and Keep transforming lives!

Aekansh (Biomedical) - Georgia Tech

The best thing about the SOP reviewing was the to-the-point feedback and I am really thankful to Nistha for her excellent advice and reviews. Also, the SOP preparation call along with the mastermind sessions were really good and helpful. Learned a lot from Nistha’s experience and guidance.

Kartik (CS NLP) - UCSC

I was a mid-career professional in my early thirties when I started my journey with Scholar Strategy (SS). Tired with the monotonous job, and frustrated with corporate politics, I was probably going through a ‘mid-career’ crisis, not really sure where I wanted to go. This is when Nistha came to my rescue and trust me she is the best counsellor I have ever had in my life! Having spent 12 years in IT industry, I wasn’t really sure if I wanted to do an MBA and that’s when Nistha helped me f… Read more

Priyasha, MIT SDM, Berkeley, Washington, MIS

Nistha helped more than the SOPs and LORs. It is very reassuring when you start applying to this year long process to have someone at your side on who is competent enough for the job of guiding you. Mind you, it is all your hardwork do not expect miraculous results if you don’t put much effort. Nistha helps put what’s on your mind in a better and impactful way, rest of the thought process is with you.

Sangram, TU Munich (CS)

I found out about Scholar Strategy on Quora and immediately got hold of the book by Nistha. Once I had my scores in hand, I reached out to her for a feedback on my profile. And I am so proud of that decision. Nistha has been a delight to work with. Some people might be surprised with her approach as there is no spoon-feeding, however that is exactly what sets her apart and helps you attain your goals realistically. 🙂 I have had a wonderful experience and am thankful for all the guidance I … Read more
