Common questions
Can you guarantee my visa?
No honest consultant can. Visa decisions are made by the authorities. We make your application as clear, complete and strong as possible.
How long does a student visa take?
It varies by country, season and your case. Apply as early as you are allowed and keep extra time for biometrics and documents.
Do I need a visa interview?
It depends on the country. Some require an interview (such as the US), others decide on documents. We tell you what applies and prepare you.
How do I show funds?
Through savings, an education loan, sponsor documents or a blocked account, depending on the country. We help you choose and document it.
What if my visa is refused?
We review the refusal reasons with you and plan whether to reapply, strengthen your case or consider another option.
