Nistha was introduced to me by a friend. I trusted my friend and have never looked back. Nistha is very professional and supportive. She has vast experience and transparency. If you are looking for honest advice and are ready to work hard, she can be a go to person to navigate you through the tedious process.

Scholar strategy has been of great help during my entire application process and I hope it keeps on doing well and helping others like me.

Saumya Gulati, Ohio State, Columbia (MS Chemical Engg)

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

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

Nistha’s forte is understanding and looking at things on the lines of any US Adcom. So make maximum use of that! So the one important factor I considered while taking her services is that, unlike any other service provider, she is the one who does all the application related work all by herself. So with I guess almost 8 years of experience of doing this, she has seen many candidates so she’s now in a position to better say what’s expected of certain schools and that’s crucial since nothi… Read more

SS helped me a lot during the application process. In addition to the help provided by Nistha, the SS community added more value to the package.

Aashray, Berkeley OR, Dartmouth MEM

Previously while going through the website and the testimonials, I found that everyone had a good word to lend about the SOP reviews and honestly I was tad bit skeptical as it seemed too good to be true. I always thought I’d write a great SOP by myself if I set my mind to it, but never actually would have come anywhere close if Nistha’s detailed and pointed review was missing in the process. I believe the standout aspect of her approach is that she points you in a direction where you have to mov… Read more

Karttik, CMU MSISPM, TAMU MIS

The honesty with which the SoPs were reviewed was refreshing. The best part was, I was still writing each word of the SoP on my own, with the best possible feedback I could have gotten. It’s the way its supposed to be. Also, the insight Nistha offered to help me in selecting the right schools to apply to was invaluable.

Abhinav, CMU MCDS, UCSD CS

Got accepted to the MSCS program at TAMU. I just want to thank you for all the wonderful support that you’ve given me throughout the application process. I know that without your help and support this would not have been possible.

Sheelabhadra, TAMU (MS CS)

I dropped a year due to health issues and used that time to prepare for Masters in US. But this year gap was increasing and joining Scholar Strategy was a wake-up call. I was totally confused regarding the course to pursue and Nistha made it clear to me. She showed me the path to identify my passions. And from there on, the sail was smooth. The timely facebook posts, quora answers, her book, the presentations and the feedback on my documents are very valuable for me.
