T.H.R.I.V.E.
Students often ask me, ‘Is counseling support essential for getting into a good study abroad program?’ The honest answer—NO. With the help of their guardians, many students successfully navigate the process on their own by staying up to date, meeting deadlines, and keeping up with requirements. However, university applications—whether for the U.S., Europe, or emerging hubs like the UAE and Southeast Asia—are increasingly competitive and nuanced.
While not mandatory, mentoring and expert guidance can be the difference between a good application and a great one. At Thriving Scholars, each member of our study abroad advisory team, having personally gone through this journey and helped students secure spots at Ivy Leagues, Oxbridge, and top global universities, ensures the process is more structured, less stressful, and significantly more effective. It gives you a chance to learn from those who have walked this path—while you can navigate it on your own, the right guidance can make the journey smoother, more manageable, and help you present your best self.
