General
Study abroad admissions · Selective India guidance
Admissions decisions, properly thought through.
Collegify helps students and families make study abroad decisions with fit, evidence and timing in view. We also advise on selective Indian programmes where essays, interviews and personal context matter.
Independently built
2011
The year Collegify began guiding students and families.
A practice built on trust
One student, one family and one referral at a time.
Since 2011, Collegify has worked with students and families. The practice has grown independently, largely through word of mouth, family recommendations and the trust of former students.
Referrals
Families and alumni have introduced much of the next generation of students.
Relationships
The relationship can continue through college decisions, readiness and early career questions.
Beyond admission
Students build judgment, an intellectual body of work and a résumé they can keep developing.

How we work
Five parts of the work.
The sequence changes by applicant, but these are the jobs an application usually requires.
Step 01
Understand the applicant
We begin with their current class, degree or work, academic record, interests, finances, preferred countries and deadlines. This gives us the information needed to set priorities.
Working output: Decision criteria
Explore career mapping
Step 02
Research the options
We compare subjects, courses, universities and requirements against the applicant’s plans. Activities and projects are recommended only where they are genuinely useful.
Working output: Research structure
Explore study destinations
Step 03
Develop the writing
Questions, drafts and close edits help the applicant choose evidence and organise it. The ideas and final voice remain theirs.
Working output: Draft and feedback checkpoints
Explore admissions consulting
Step 04
Manage the applications
We organise the shortlist, requirements, deadlines and review schedule. Each application gets enough time before submission.
Working output: Application plan, review schedule and submission readiness

Step 05
Prepare for interviews
Mock interviews and direct feedback help the applicant discuss their choices and work. They should be able to explain both in their own words.
