What is the certainty that my application for an undergraduate or graduate programme at a university abroad will be accepted?

There is a level of certainty that all the applications, both graduate and undergraduate, we handle will be accepted and the applicants offered admissions. This is so because we will not take any job/application that does not stand a chance of success. At the initial stage of the consultation, we would have assessed, evaluated and analysed your credentials to determine your eligibility and see where you can fit in. If at the end of the evaluation and analysis, it is concluded that your application does not stand a chance of being accepted, our services will be terminated forthwith.

 

Do I pay a consultation fee, if yes, at what stage?

Yes, you pay a certain consultation fee. We are a registered private limited liability business entity that pays tax to the government, pays bills, pays salaries to its staff and needs money for day-to-day operations. At the commencement of the process, you pay a certain deposit and we can work out how you pay the remaining balance.

 

How much do you charge as a consultation fee?

The amount we charge varies. A variety of factors comes into play in determining the amount we charge as consultation fee.

 

Is there a moneyback guarantee if it does not work out as expected?

Yes, there is a moneyback guarantee if it does not work out as expected. However, we will leave no stone unturned to ensure that it works out as expected. We will not take any job that does not have the slimmest of hope of being successful.

 

Why do you have foreign contact numbers?

The owners of the firm are Nigerians who are based in Finland and they are the resource persons. The so-called ‘foreign contact numbers’ are actually Finnish mobile numbers and are handled by the resource persons because they are the ones who have the wherewithal, expertise and experience to provide accurate information and give counselling as it is deemed appropriate based on their levels of education and many years spent and schooled in Europe. This realization does not only confer on them and the firm some form of leverage over their competitors in Nigeria, but also affirm the trust their clients have in them with the firm belief that they have what it takes to make their dream a reality.

 

Is the business based in Finland or Nigeria?

The firm is domiciled in Nigeria. It is a wholly Nigerian firm. It is a registered private limited liability company with Nigeria’s Corporate Affairs Commission with Registration Number: 1837868. Our office is located in Ibadan, Oyo State. The owners are full-fledged Nigerians who are based in Finland and have staff who work in the firm’s office in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria.

 

Why is your firm different from other overseas education consultancy firms?

We are different in many ways. We have over ten years of experience that we have been helping many Nigerians realize their dreams of studying abroad. Besides, we are blessed to have had resource persons who are a product of the system. They had their university education abroad. They live abroad. They understand the terrain and the education system much better than their Nigerian competitors who have never left the shores of the country. We are better equipped in terms of the resources, pedigree and knowhow to facilitate and make a reality your dream of studying abroad.

 

Can I work and study?

Yes, you can work and study. However, the number of hours permitted the international students to work varies from one country to another. In some countries, international students are permitted to work 25hours a week, other countries only allow them to work 20hours a week. They can work full time (40hours per week) during the summer holiday.
