"Whether you are preparing for graduate school applications,writing course essays, or looking to elevate your writing in any capacity, working with Shreya is one of the best decisions you can make"

Nicole (Global Health)

"For my college essays, Shreya’s support was invaluable. By the end of the process, I felt much more confident in how I was presenting myself. The final essays felt honest and genuinely reflective of who I am. I am certain that other students will find her support just as valuable as I did, and I wish her continued success at Gradschule"

Frequently Asked Questions

How is GradSchule's CPP different from the admission counselling services in the market?

FAQ Icon LineFAQ Icon Line

Admission counselling usually focuses on outcomes rather than on the student. It may help you identify potential universities, shape application narratives to fit what institutions may be looking for, and often promises to secure a seat. Yet such assurances do not necessarily prepare students for the intellectual expectations of university life.

CPP focuses on building your academic and professional capacity. Instead of simply helping you get the fish you want, the Program teaches you how to fish.

Along the way, you also become familiar with the tools and expectations of the application process, the awareness of which continues to support you as you grow within the university environment.

What is the format of the Program?

FAQ Icon LineFAQ Icon Line

CPP runs as an 18–20 session, practice-based program. The initial sessions focus on getting to know you better—your interests, aspirations, and expectations—so that together we can shape a thoughtful application strategy.

Why don't you guarantee admissions?

FAQ Icon LineFAQ Icon Line

Admission decisions are made by universities and depend on factors beyond the applicant’s or our control—selection committee choices, cohort composition, and available seats, among others.

We cannot influence these decisions, therefore, we do not guarantee admission. What we  do is help you grow into the kind of candidate that top universities notice and value.

When is the best time to enroll in the Program?

FAQ Icon LineFAQ Icon Line

The ideal time to start is about seven to eight weeks before your university application deadline, though a little extra time is always welcome. A longer engagement allows your learning to unfold at a comfortable pace, ensures feedback is precise and actionable, and gives you ample opportunity to practice and apply what you learn.

How will I, as a parent, be involved in my child's preparation and track progress?

FAQ Icon LineFAQ Icon Line

The Program provisions for you, as a parent/guardian, to have dedicated check-ins with us a few times to stay informed and involved at the right moments.

These meetings let us share your child’s progress, highlight strengths, and outline the next steps in their preparation, while your child explores, practices, and gains independently.

What are the outcomes I should expect after this Program?

FAQ Icon LineFAQ Icon Line

CPP aims to build the student's immediate and lasting capacities. In the short term, you will develop application materials that are authentic, well-structured, and can be presented confidently across different stages of the admissions process.

In the longer term, the critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and clear communication skills you develop will equip you to engage effectively in university classrooms and professional spheres.
