Studyallybd knows what it takes to find a good match and set you up for success.
1. Research
Do your research! Investigate courses, universities and their locations. Look upon the teaching modules, research opportunities, campus life and employment prospects before you narrow down your selection. You can ask your friends and family or reach out to the alumni of universities you are interested in for a wider perspective. Use Facebook or LinkedIn to reach out to them more effectively. Also, do remember to include your budget and available scholarships as a part of your research.
One final word of advice – don’t trust everything you read online. Some reviews from other students might be influenced by a single negative personal experience or choosing a course that wasn’t right for them. It doesn’t always mean you will feel the same way. Studyallybd can ensure you get accurate and unbiased advice.

3. Make you application
After you’ve chosen your course and university or school, it’s time to apply. Your Studyallybd counsellor will support your university and course applications. We take our job very seriously and follow the strictest legal and ethical standards. Your counsellor will personally contact your chosen university or school to ensure they convey the full picture to help improve your chances of acceptance.
If you need to take an English test to qualify for your course, practice hard to get good grades. In a test such as IELTS, it is important to be grammatically sound besides having a wide range of vocabulary.
4. Offer acceptance
Once your application is received, the university or school will assess it thoroughly and notify you of the result. It can take up to a few weeks (or longer for postgraduate applications) for your application to be processed.
If your application is successfully selected, you’ll receive a letter of offer and an acceptance form. Before you accept the offer, go through it carefully with your counsellor to check for any conditions that may apply.
If you are accepted for more than one course or school, your counsellor will help you decide on the best option for you.
5. Student visa
After accepting the letter of offer the most important task is to apply for your student visa. Since each country has its own set of formalities to fulfill, your Studyallybd counsellor will guide you through the visa application process and help prepare the documents needed for your submission.
