Annie was not only guiding me into right path but also was(is) a great mentor until I joined my course I would  highly recommend “IstudyAbroad” for their workmanship.

I am pleased to say that approaching iStudyAbroad was one of the best decisions of my life. I received full support in applying for the course, preparation of SOP and CV and also for visa documents. Well, receiving the offer letter from UCC was quite difficult as i had not received my undergraduate certificates, but Annie ma’am never let me loose hope. She gave her 100% support.I truly appreciate the commitment towards the work and the importance which they give to each of their student. I thank the whole staff of iStudyAbroad for their constant support and I recommend it to everyone  who are planning to pursue their studies in abroad.

I am pleased to recommend iStudyAbroad services to any student desirous of studying abroad. They have helped me through the entire process of application from identifying the right course to working with me on SOP, LORs, & essays, and most importantly in putting together the financial documents for visa purpose. I am especially impressed by the level of commitment and time given to me on an individual basis by their head counsellor. The care with which they treat each application is impressive and the genuine concern shown is highly commendable.

I can’t find enough words to thank iStudyAbroad for helping me with my study abroad plans. The consultant guided me thoroughly about the course selections, university selection. She had a very helpful and cordial approach. I was confused earlier but she gave me enough choices according to my desired interest and profile. And then I got my all queries resolved before taking the decision for higher studies. My visa was initially refused but iStudyAbroad ensured that appeal letter was thoroughly researched and all the refusal points were explained and clarified in detail.

iStudyAbroad come highly recommended for their professionalism and services. I wanted to seek admission to Parson School of Design, USA, to pursue MA in Fashion Studies. It is tough to get admission in Parson’s as it is a top school for fashion design. I was guided each step in the application process and I was amazed to see the final outcome in few critical documents such as SOP, LORs and Essays. They made me write and re-write it until a world class standard was achieved. Today I view, Annie Thomas, Head Counsellor of iStudyAbroad more as a family, and seek her advice on all and sundry matters.
