Testimonials

I pinch myself from time to time to make sure that this isn’t a dream. Because CMU has always been my dream as far as I can remember and Scholar Strategy helped me achieve that dream. After talking to around 10 counselors in Delhi, a friend recommended Scholar Strategy to me. I was completely clueless and misguided. Nistha brought me on the right track and was straightforward to me about my chances. I believe in the saying ‘The more I practice, the luckier I get’ and so does Nistha. If y… Read more

Nistha really helped me get the best SOP out there, with every iteration that we went through. I being a reapplicant realized how coherent and concise my words looked, after the final version was approved. From shortlisting universities to mentoring as to which one we should join, Nistha has been a great mentor.

Kamal, NCSU, CU Boulder (CS)

I will be graduating from Portland State University in 2018, completing my Master’s in Electrical and Computer Engineering – and I would like to thank Scholar Strategy for enabling me for a journey that I never planned to do. A little bit of history about myself, I was working as a Software Engineer at Hewlett Packard Enterprise for 2 years and there has been something constant throughout my time there – total dislike for the job and thoughts on how to get out it for good. Nistha played a piv… Read more

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)

At Waterloo, apart from an initial first term scholarship of $1800, I got TA which pays my living expenses for almost 4 months (~$3500). Last but not least, I am very thankful for the help and guidance throughout my application process. It was invaluable. My initial and final statements were miles apart in quality. Same with my LORs.

Rafi Alam, Waterloo (MS CS)

Data analysis is more important than just having the statistics. Consultancies have the data – the statistics about what range of scores maps on to admits in which school. But more often than not, the mapping gets highly nonlinear !.. ;( You could never quite guess where a student might end up by just looking at his or her scores because the student might have a great research profile or publications too (which count a lot, in addition to having good marks). Now this profile requires a smart an… Read more

Supreeth Rao, WPI (Robotics)

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

‎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.

Ishan, UCSD (CS)

Helps prepare high quality materials for admissions in a very short time.

Aketh, NYU (CS)

The one thing common at all the top schools is a diverse student body. This is mainly because these schools dont just consider a GRE/GMAT score but look at the complete profile of the student before offering admission. You might be good and have a great score too, but unless you can sell that to the admissions committee, they won’t let you in. This is where I think students need to seek help if required. And Nistha is amazingly good at that. Having been a part of the committee, she knows what… Read more
