Hey, I'm Max!
As an international student myself many years ago now, I have personal experience of the challenges students and families face on the university admissions journey. This has fueled my passion for helping others as they embark on their own transformative journeys.
I'm a member of the International Association for College Admissions and Counselling and have completed courses in international college admissions counselling from UCLA. I've honed an intimate understanding of university admissions processes and degree structures across the globe. My track record speaks for itself – I've successfully guided numerous students to admissions to their dream colleges worldwide.
Choosing the right path for higher education can be a daunting task, but my goal is to make it empowering and rewarding. We'll navigate this exciting journey together and I will ensure that every decision you make is well-thought out, informed and tailored to your unique aspirations.
Hello, I’m Razya
I love mentoring and coaching young people. I have been providing college counselling services for over 20 years and the best part has always been the conversations I’ve had with my students. And I’m not just talking about the planning chat although that’s exciting too. I’m talking about the strengths and talents, dreams and aspirations, who I am and what I want to do type conversations. These are the ones where students delve deep into who they are and what they’ve done and what they think about. And discover all manner of fascinating revelations about themselves.
Which makes for great essays.
I’m an accredited member of the International Association for College Admissions and Counselling.
