What is the process for booking a consultation and what questions should I prepare for it?
Book a LeapScholar consultation online by selecting a counsellor, confirming your slot, and submitting a brief profile. Come prepared with your academic background, target countries and programs, budget range, and test scores if available to make the most of your session.
A study abroad consultation is most valuable when you come in with a clear picture of where you stand and what you want to figure out. The session is your opportunity to get personalised advice specific to your profile - not generic information you could find anywhere. Here is how to book and how to make the most of every minute.

Questions to Prepare Before Your Session
| Category | Questions to Bring |

| Your Academic Profile | What is my realistic chance of admission at my target universities given my GPA and test scores? |
| University Shortlist | Which universities best match my profile, career goals, and budget - safe, target, and ambitious tiers? |
| Funding and Loans | What education loan options are available for my destination? What collateral or co-applicant profile do I need? |
| Visa and Timeline | What are the key deadlines for my target intake and when should I submit my visa application? |
| Career Outcomes | What are graduates from my target program actually doing 2 years after graduation? Does the program have job placement support? |
My Advice
Bring specific numbers to your consultation - your exact CGPA, test scores if you have them, your monthly budget for EMI repayment, and your family's income range. Vague questions produce generic answers. The more specific you are, the more directly your counsellor can advise you on the actual choices in front of you rather than speaking in generalities. If you have already researched a few universities, mention them by name - this helps your counsellor focus on filling the gaps in your knowledge rather than starting from scratch.
