Hi, this is Rahil Shajahan from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras. I did my graduation in Engineering Physics. I am glad to share that I got admit from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology majoring in Optics and Photonics.
I needed help writing and structuring my SOP. I also couldn’t narrow down the universities I wanted to apply to, with which Galvanize was a great help.Â
The university shortlisting process went on smoothly. Since I got admitted to all the universities I applied to. The first iteration itself was amazing. The questions asked were pitch-perfect. I would say the SOP creation was the highlight of my Galvanize experience. Mrs. Divya admissions head at Galvanize Test Prep was of great help to me. She was straightforward with the questions I asked and I wasn’t left confused with bogus answers. The experience, on the whole, was good.
Dream big. Don’t be scared to apply to higher-ranked universities.

The application process to foreign universities is daunting in terms of the quantity of documents required. Galvanize admission counselling helped streamline the entire process.
The team clearly laid down the plan for the months leading up to my university deadlines.
The universities were shortlisted based on several factors including an initial review conducted at the beginning of the counselling process. The list was extensive and well researched which helped me filter out universities based on my interests.
The drafting process for my SOP and LOR was exhausting and extremely time consuming. The admissions counselor at Galvanize helped me at every step with fast and reliable reviews on my SOP and diversity essays.
They also kept me motivated all this time with weekly reminders.
Ultimately, I would definitely say Galvanize AC helped me in achieving an exciting admit. Galvanize AC was definitely a crucial piece of my journey in applying for a Master’s abroad.

I required some assistance in framing my resume, SOP etc, given the semester workload I had. My experience with Galvanize was beyond expectations, they helped with numerous iterations of my Resume. Moreover they helped me tailor my SOP with the requirements of each university.
The best thing about Galvanize is they are very approachable. There were times when I forwarded my SOP the previous night and they proofread it within 24 hours.

The Galvanize team helped me choose universities that fit my profile – with my dream schools and safe schools included to guarantee admits. Drafting an SOP is always tedious. Galvanize guided me through the making of my Statement of Purpose pointing out mistakes and indicating areas of improvement to make my SOP winning.
I thank Galvanize for the incessant support and guidance that was offered me throughout the process. Galvanize has helped me immensely. What better than getting an admit from an Ivy-League university for a program its known for?

University selection based on your profile is a tedious task and requires proper guidance. I also wanted someone I could rely on for SOP and LOR reviews. That is why I enrolled with Galvanize.
I’m glad I did because Galvanize made the admission process easier, providing me with all the required resources.
Though many resources are available over the internet, being a working professional, I did not have enough time to search for the resources myself and then work on the process. I felt very at ease knowing that I could rely on Galvanize to address my queries and help me out with the admission process.
What impressed me most about Galvanize were the timely response for each and and every query during the admissions process. I would say to anybody who is busy and has no proper idea about the admissions process to definitely enroll with Galvanize Admissions.

Applying to universities is a risky and expensive process, so I was sure guidance was needed. I enrolled with Galvanize admissions counselling, which turned out to be a great decision.
Before Galvanize, I was confused about which universities would be best for me to apply to. Galvanize evaluated my profile, enquired about all other factors like my preferred location, cost, and courses before giving me a final list of universities, which were suitable to my needs. My biggest fear was the SOP but Galvanize helped me personalize SOP’s for all of the universities I applied to.
What I liked most about Galvanize was the timely schedule for all the tasks in the application process. I will surely recommend Galvanize to my friends for its excellent team editing team, university selection and ensuring that the entire process moved in a timely manner. Thank you Galvanize for providing the best counselling!Â

Writing your Statement Of Purpose and getting Letter’s Of Recommendation is a tedious task and I needed help with it. I chose Galvanize on the recommendation of my friends. The universities which were shortlisted for me were very well thought of based on my overall academic profile. They were categorised under Ambitious, Practical and Safe based on the chances of my getting admitted into them. The documentation process was very easy to follow and Galvanize was always ready to help whenever I needed it. In order to secure admissions, your SOP, Resume and LOR’s need to be impactful and up to the point. Galvanize editors help with all of them and it’s really helpful.
The Galvanize Admission Counsellors were very professional and helpful. The webinars and live Video Conferences from counsellors gave me all the basic information I needed. They make sure they answer all your queries! Counsellors are very professional and helpful. The website UI is also well designed. College websites links, application deadlines are all mentioned on the front page which make things easier to follow and navigate through.
I’m really happy that I chose to enroll for the Admission Counselling. I managed to secure admits from multiple universities from the US!

I’m excited to be going to University of Southern California to pursue my Master’s in Machine Learning. If I were asked to go through the admissions process again, I would still choose Galvanize! I enrolled with Galvanize for my GRE and TOEFL prep. I was very happy with their service. Therefore, I decided to enroll for Admissions Counselling too.
Throughout the process, the Galvanize team was was very supportive and polite. In fact my favourite things about Galvanize were that it was very convenient, having the entire process online and of course, working with their experienced professionals.
My advice to everyone considering studying abroad is to trust the system and follow the timeline!

Galvanize AC team has helped me during every phase of the application process. They’ve carefully evaluated my profile and suggested to me with a list of universities to apply for and I received admits from most of the universities in the list.
Though the drafting of SOP was a tedious process, they had been very patient and helpful. They showed the same dedication and patience throughout the process.
With the help of the Galvanize AC team, I could finish the application process much before the deadlines. They constantly reminded me of the upcoming application deadlines.
I am very thankful to Galvanize for helping me in getting an admits from reputed universities like the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, New York University, Northeastern University and the University of Houston.

I chose Galvanize Test Prep for Admissions Counseling because I had already enrolled in the GRE preparation course before and the Admissions Counselling seemed like it could help me enter in the Universities I wanted.
I already knew three Universities I wanted to apply to so it was the documentation process that was most helpful to me. In terms of Personal Statements, I think the counselor really helped me. I would have been very lost writing one of those letters completely on my own. Especially since I am very busy working on my final year dissertation.
Galvanize was a bit expensive but really helpful overall!Â
My advice to everyone considering studying abroad is to focus on your GRE test score and the other important thing is to have as much extracurricular experience as possible.

At first, I thought I didn’t need any help applying to universities, because I was confident that this was something I could do by myself. However, once I understood the huge amount of competition out there, the gravity of the situation sunk in. I turned to Galvanize for help with my application process and it was the best decision I’ve ever made! My Admission Counsellor at Galvanize was extremely knowledgeable and dispelled all my concerns.
Right from my shortlisting universities to crafting my Resume and my Statement of Purpose, and discussing with my profs for my Letters of Recommendation, I was given a lot of support. The Galvanize Team also responded quickly to all my questions and made the entire apping experience a stress-free one! Thanks to Galvanize, I got accepted at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor – my dream school! Thank you, guys, you’re awesome 😀

One of the nice things about Galvanize is that their price is so affordable! Moreover, the GRE faculty teach the video lessons with such simplicity that even a novice like me could understand the concepts. I liked the GRE program at Galvanize, which is why I enrolled with Galvanize for Admission Counseling. As per my request, my Admission Counsellors shortlisted 6 universities based on my scores. They explained the procedure via a Google Hangouts call. I must say that the best thing is that Galvanize helps us help ourselves. I wrote all my SOPs, essays, etc and the Galvanize team reviewed it and gave their valuable suggestions. They helped me fine-tune my essays. The team also reviewed my application forms! I am still in the process of submitting my applications, and help from Galvanize is always extended. I have received admits from 2 reputed universities (Stevens Institute of Technology, New Jersey, and Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago) – thank you, Galvanize!
