“Personally, I think it’s already complicated enough for American students. I think it’s even more complicated for international students with all the additional requirements and all the differences between our countries. EduSmith helped me sort through the clutter and gave me only what I needed to navigate through the process, and that has made the journey through the process much smoother.”

“EduSmith helped a lot with outlining certain scholarships offered by universities. Because I come from a family that needs financial aid or financial help for US universities, EduSmith helps with researching those scholarships and contacting me with scholarships’ alumni to get me a bigger picture of what certain scholarships are, what they offer, and how I can get them.”

“Even though it’s very difficult and there’s a lot of essay writing and test revision, it’s very fulfilling in the sense that I challenged myself and bettered myself through the workload...it’s a very constructive way of learning, and that way I think I improved so much just by participating."

"I love how considerate my counselor is. Not only is she knowledgeable, but she is also very flexible, both are qualities that brought out my creativity during a rough year of transitioning to an American school. Honestly, a significant part of my success in this cycle is because of her."

"I love the personalized feedback and care that Edusmith gives to each and every one of the essays I do with them. Not only do I get to send these incredible essays to my universities but I also get to improve my writing to the next level."

"I liked how my counselor paid close attention to both my supplemental essays and extracurricular activities. She gives good feedback about my progress in a timely manner and suggests how I can improve in many ways. Apart from that, I also felt that the comments I got from each advisor about my essays helped me become a better writer as a whole. It taught me how to tell a story about myself to people I've met. It taught me to explore different vocabularies. And lastly, this programme has taught me that every thing you do from day one counts."

"The advisor is always available to answer any questions and is willing to help elaborate on the counseling team's comment."

"Without everyone and the energy, hope, and attitude they gave me, I would never be able to come this far to going to UIUC next year. Everyone is the one who shaped my turning point of my life to be the best. I would never become who I am today without everyone. Thank you very much for guiding me for the past 6+ years. I will never forget this experience."
