Reet (CS) – UTD, ASU

Being an international student herself in the past, Nistha can understand the perspective of the upcoming graduate aspirants and help them accordingly. Every nuances of the SOP and LOR drafts gets thoroughly reviewed before being finalised and the IMAP session are great for career advise. I really enjoyed the overall experience.

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 nothing gives a better impression than a personalised application.

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.

Surya, CU Boulder CS, CMU MIS

Thank you so much for guiding me through the applications. Without your guidance, I might not have applied to CU Boulder and definitely would not have gotten through. I am happy to share that I got through Google, Amazon, Salesforce and Spotify for my summer internship.

I know that coming from US undergrad, I had advantages over many other students. But, I wouldn’t have received these results without your counseling and all the information I got from Scholar Strategy. You really pushed me to get the best out of me when writing my SOP and resume! I look forward to paying back by contributing to the Scholar Strategy community in the future.

I first discovered Scholar Strategy through a friend in HK. She is from India, and she told me she heard great things about Scholar Strategy from her friends. I was recommended a few consulting services, but felt that SS had an edge. Usually for other services, you don’t know who will be editing your SOP or they will only look into structure/grammar. As I read more about SS on the website and talked to you on the phone, I could really see you care about the content and have a strong background in CS/Data/Engineering.

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. ?

Abhinav, CMU MCDS, UCSD CS

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.
