Progression guidanceHow it works
Four stages, fixed at the start
The sequence below is the actual order of work for an application package — each stage has to finish before the next one starts, and you are told at stage one what each will cost.
Stage 01
Discovery call
Twenty minutes, no charge. We look at grades to date, budget, target intake and whether we are the right fit.
Stage 02
Shortlist & plan
A written shortlist of five to eight courses with entry requirements, fees and deadlines, plus a dated task plan.
Stage 03
Application build
Drafting and review cycles on the statement or proposal, reference coordination, and submission checks before you send.
Stage 04
Offers & enrolment
Offer comparison, condition tracking, interview practice where needed, and a handover checklist for enrolment week.
Fees
Published prices, no commission on student fees
Every package and course price is on the site. We charge the student or the institution directly and we do not take a recruitment commission from any university for placing a UK-domiciled applicant.

Success stories
What students say
I had five drafts of a personal statement that all said the same thing. My adviser made me cut the first two paragraphs and write about the lab placement instead. That version got the interview.
The research proposal support was the useful part. Ten weeks of turning a vague idea about supply chains into a two-page proposal with a method section I could actually defend.
We brought Aston in to moderate assessment on two new modules. The report was blunt about our rubric wording, which is exactly what we paid for.
