The honest truth about us
We started because traditional education consultancies felt... well, traditional. Stuffy offices, generic advice, and fees that made your wallet cry. We thought students deserved better.
Our founder, Kazibwe Yassin, a software engineer, spent years watching brilliant students give up on their dreams because the process felt impossible. Too many forms, too many rejections, too much confusion. So he decided to change that.
Fast forward to today: we've successfully placed students at reputable universities across several countries. But here's what we're most proud of - we've also helped students discover amazing schools they'd never heard of that turned out to be perfect for them.
Our philosophy is simple:
"There's no such thing as a 'reach' school when you have the right strategy and someone who actually cares about your success."
We're not perfect. We've made mistakes, learned from them, and gotten better. What we lack in corporate polish, we make up for with genuine care and a track record that speaks for itself.
Numbers that actually mean something
We could bore you with statistics, but these are the ones that actually matter to students like you.
Including 75 who got into their first choice
We provide thorough preparation for visa applications
Average scholarship: $8,000 per student
Because your questions can't wait until Monday
"These aren't just numbers - they represent dreams achieved, families proud, and futures changed."
