I had a wonderful experience with School Connect. My advisor was very approachable and knowledgeable. They conducted mock interviews for my VISA preparation, to add to that they have an amazing AI-based interview feature that comes in very handy to practice at our convenience. The advisors are prompt and quick to reply.
