Admission to a US Master's Degree with 100% Funding

Student request:

Leila, a Bachelor of Arts in Economics, dreamed of continuing her education in the United States. Her goal was ambitious: to enroll in a Master of Arts in Economics and receive full funding that would cover all tuition costs.

We helped turn her request into a strategy and guide Leila through the entire application process step by step.

What was before:

  • Participation in a case competition of one of the banks in her country.
  • Certificate of completion of the course “Algorithmic Trading”.
  • Winning a team case championship in one of the Big Four companies.
  • Experience in leadership and participation in a state case competition for solving business problems of the country’s leading companies.
  • Strong personal motivation: to combat stigma against women in the economy and popularize role models of female leaders.

These achievements were a good base, but they needed to be packaged and strengthened so that Leila would stand out among hundreds of candidates for American universities.

What we did:

We knew it was important for Leila not only to get in, but also to get full funding. So we developed a clear action plan and implemented it together.

We have selected universities where it is possible to receive a high scholarship.

We compiled a list of additional activities and helped implement them to strengthen the profile.

We worked through the motivation and made it the basis of the essay: Leila showed herself as a future researcher and ambassador of women’s leadership in economics.

Organized 3 letters of recommendation from academic and professional mentors that highlighted her strengths.

Created a resume that clearly reflects her accomplishments and leadership qualities.

We prepared Leila for the interview: we went through typical questions, rehearsed the answers, and helped her confidently convey her mission.

We completed applications and submitted documents to two Ohio State universities.

While the applications were being reviewed, we prepared Leila for funding negotiations and identified possible scholarships.

RESULT:

Leila received invitations from two US universities at once — Kent State University and Ohio University. At the interview at Ohio University, she successfully defended her motivation and received a Graduate Teaching Assistantship. Total funding — $37,774, including full coverage of tuition + fees, health insurance and living expenses.

The result — admission to a US master’s program with 100% funding!
