FAQ
Do we provide admission guidance for all colleges/universities listed on our website?
We provide guidance for all colleges/universities listed on our website. In addition, even if a college/university is not listed on our website, we can make arrangements to obtain all required information for it if a student approaches us for guidance for it.
What do we charge for our services?
We have tie-ups with several colleges/universities from among those listed on our website. We do not charge anything from the students from all such colleges/universities with whom we have a tie-up. For colleges/universities with which we do not have any tie-up, we charge a very nominal fee, which is much lower than what regular admission consultants charge and is in line with our mission of bringing all kinds of services and educational products to students at the lowest possible costs.
What all services do we provide?
We provide all services related to the admission process including, but not limited to,
Which colleges/universities do we prefer over others?
We do not hold any biases towards or against any college/university. While helping a student choose a college/university, we present unadulterated facts and our neutral opinion based on the student's profile, scores, preferences, and expectations that we try and match with the offerings from various colleges.
Which countries do we provide a service for?
We provide services for every destination preferred by international students. We make recommendations for destinations based on a student's profile and help the student with applications to the destination of his/her choice.

H First consultants block their time based on the scope of activities decided at the time of sign-up. We will not entertain any requests for a change of schedule/scope after signup or move it to another round (e.g. Round 1 to Round 2), unless it has been mutually agreed in writing before making the payment. After making the payment, if you decide to use a lower scope than what what originally mutually agreed, we cannot offer a refund.
