Why personal advice?<\/h2>\n

Every year abroad is as individual as you are. Personal advice will help you make the best choice from the wealth of programs, countries and offers. We work independently, compare different organizations and take your interests, budget and school situation into account.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

This is how the consultation works<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Initial consultation:<\/strong> We get to know you, your parents and your goals. In the initial consultation, we clarify transparently which consultation steps are possible and which services may be chargeable.<\/li>\n
  2. Analysis & Selection:<\/strong> Based on your wishes, we put together suitable programs and clarify any open questions about costs, host family, Visa and recognition.<\/li>\n
  3. Decision:<\/strong> You will receive a recommendation and can then book the program through us or complete it directly with the organization.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Why professional advice makes sense<\/h2>\n

    The selection of programs, countries and organizations is huge. Our experienced consultants will help you keep track and make an informed decision. We work independently and compare different providers, check their quality standards and make sure that the program fits your interests, your budget and your school situation. Personal advice saves you time, money and unnecessary detours.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    \n

    What to expect in the consultation<\/h2>\n

    In the first conversation we clarify your goals, interests and requirements. We talk about desired countries, school types, program length and your budget. You will then receive a selection of suitable programs. In the second step we discuss details: host family or boarding school, Visa, insurance and scholarships. Our goal is for you to know exactly what steps are necessary and what the process looks like.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    \n

    How to prepare for the consultation<\/h2>\n

    Write down your questions: Which countries are you particularly interested in? Which subjects or focus areas would you like to choose? How long do you want to stay? Find out about the costs in advance and clarify with your parents what budget is available. Have your references ready and consider how you will deal with challenges such as homesickness. The better prepared you are, the more precise we can advise.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Our values \u200b\u200b& independence<\/h2>\n

    We work with various organizations, but always remain independent. Your needs are the focus \u2013 we provide cross-provider advice, transparently and with your personal situation in mind. Trust, transparency and honesty are our guidelines. That's why we'll tell you if a program doesn't suit you or if you'd be better off starting with a shorter stay.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    \n
