Here’s what some of our students have to say

  • Els Reynaers: Parent, Lawyer

    Sargam distinguishes herself from other counsellors by being extremely organised, and by readily sharing all important information per university in easy to use and clear tabular formats, further supported by personal insights based on earlier successful applicants of hers.

    What ultimately distinguished her most for us was her unmatched talent to offer guidance on how to write an impactful and very unique personal essay which would reflect the essence of our child while also conveying the distinct characteristics in such a manner that it would resonate well with the program one is applying for. Moreover Sargam is extremely proactive about all deadlines, other requirements, FAQs, next steps, etc. ensuring all of us felt at ease throughout the process, knowing we would not miss out on anything and be in the driving seat all along instead of being unnecessary overwhelmed or stressed.

    Simply put, the perfect 360 degree university mentor!

  • Pritish Shah: NYU Stern School of Business

    I found Success Stories extremely helpful. Not only did Ms. Sargam recommend the ideal college based on my interests , but also incentivized me to look at the various activities that would make the college perfect for me. Since I was a passionate finance student, she suggested I look up Mr. Aswath Damodaran (a very famous finance Professor) among other tips.

    I received help on grammar content and quality of my entire application as she guided me with cues on what recruiters may look out for. She taught me how to underline strengths that I may have otherwise ignored. Without her, I don't know if I'd have made it to NYU altogether.

  • Vedika Dhoot: St. George's International School, Switzerland

    Success Stories has helped me so much!! I wouldn't have been able to manage without the aid I needed to successfully complete my applications. Ms. Sargam's direction afforded me many scholarships and acceptances to top universities .

    Since I'm not a domestic student and am applying from abroad, I was a bit befuddled. She made the process efficient and stress-free creating clear time-lines and informative guides for all possible avenues for my future.

    Honestly I couldn't thank her enough for all the support and encouragement!! Today I have a huge list of choices thanks to Success Stories

  • Arshia Mehta: Wellesley College

    The Guidance from Success Stories was extremely handy and informative. From insights on various college options to the smallest nuance that could be a game-changer, I was fitfully advised by Ms. Sargam. Her engagement with students is both exemplary and inimitable.

    There's a comfort zone in how she gets you and is always available for a consult at the nth hour.

  • Nandish Khandhar: UC Berkeley

    My journey with Success Stories has been really amazing! Over the course of my college application Ms. Sargam really helped me brainstorm and come up with a variety of interesting essay topics that aligned with my strengths and achievements. The feedback at every stage of the process was extremely well-structured and helpful.

  • Janhavi Minocha: Emory University

    When you've worked hard at High School and dreamed of the university you want to get into, you're doing yourself a favor by entrusting your application in the hands of someone who is meticulous, hardworking and well informed about the system.

    Ms. Sargam epitomizes all of this, in that she is absolutely dedicated in helping you present your application in the most positive way possible. Her focus on detail & expertise in essay editing is the cherry on the cake. She's unparalleled in her promptness for answering questions regardless of time.

    Her motivation comes from a conviction to make your dreams materialize and it's infectious. I strongly recommend Success Stories to all aspirants. This is the way to go!!

  • Hridayam Agarwal: Northeastern University

    Transition from Mumbai to anywhere in the world can be daunting. I was unsure of what I wanted to do, where I wanted to go and how to get there. Ms. Sargam was a wonderful adviser.

    Through informal sit-downs where I just spoke about myself, my interests, passions and hobbies, she learned so much about me and perfectly understood what I wanted to put out there. Usually it's hard to put down what you feel, but she did a phenomenal job prodding me along, helping me put my best foot forward and reviewing as many drafts as I wanted; simply making me more and more confident of my application.

    I felt better about my applications, about myself & about any college decision that was going to come my way.

  • Aman Agarwal: UC San Diego

    I was finding it very difficult to balance filling my college applications with my studies, that's when I came across Success Stories. Since the day I spoke to Ms. Sargam, the application process became much easier to understand & navigate. She was extremely cooperative, helped me edit my applications and is always available to answer every small question while tackling the various application portals.

    It's been a great experience working with her. My acceptances have been unbelievable... leaving me with a vast array to choose from!!
