Testimonials
I opted for counseling from Scholar Strategy primarily to select a college that suited my individual and technical needs. Nistha was a great help being open to any discussions and she focused over my particular interests. Her technical experience in the same field helped me better. I can say Scholar Strategy did great for me.

I decided to join Scholar Strategy based on Nistha’s credentials and I am very happy with the services provided so far. She had a one on one telephonic conversation with me which helped me put to perspective what I really wanted from my Masters. In the process she meticulously has analyzed the type of person I am and whether my choice of Courses and Institutions are actually relevant to my future career goals. After a thorough analysis she helped me pick the right mix of Universities keeping in … Read more

Enrolling with Scholar Strategy made all the difference, it was the same profile as last year.

Scholar Strategy is for people who are looking for a mentor and not a typical counselor. Working with Nistha has been great. She helps you come up with a unique story of your own for the SOP and this I believe is one thing that makes your application stand out. She was available on mails throughout the process, giving honest and practical suggestions. A special mention to our closed Facebook group called ‘Scholar Strategy gang’, this group’s peer-help has been amazing. Thank you, Nistha!… Read more

Working with Nistha has been a wonderful experience. It was due to her insightful SOP reviews that I was able to turn an average initial draft into a much more competitive SOP. The active Facebook community of Scholar strategy is an invaluable resource. Seniors provide advice and clear doubts on various topics like school evaluation, interview questions, job/internship/scholarship opportunities and VISA issues. More than anything else, Nistha really cares about your career and that is what sets … Read more
Aditya, Duke, UMass Amherst (MEM)
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

Working with Nistha was a great experience as she meticulously helped me form a strategy for the SoP . Throughout the application period , there were numerous discussions and iterations , the final version of SoP looked much better than I had envisaged . I don’t think the admits would have been possible without her guidance. Thanks Nistha !
Akash, Georgia Tech (ECE)
Nistha is very critical with the SOP and the LORs. She pushes students to get the best out of them. This might sometimes suggest hectic and students might feel that whatever they’ve already written would be enough. But, trust me, Nistha knows what is correct. She has been in this industry for a quite a while now. Nistha pays a lot of importance to the fact that the overall profile including resume, SOPs and LORs are an important aspect to the college application. Merely having a good GRE/TOEFL w… Read more

The time I approached Nistha, honestly I was skeptic about my profile and admission prospective. Due to tight schedule at job, I couldn’t do much justice to my Gre score and was pretty late for my application process(December). But following Nistha’s guidelines, I have been able to crack seven universities as of now which includes TAMU(for comp engineering). Best part of scholarstrategy is Nistha will make you work on your SOP/Profile in a manner that important aspects of your profile are well h… 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!
