The connect team is fantastic. Saniya is the compassionate academic counsellor you wish you had in school. I was rusty with my academic skills and occupied with my job when I was applying for my Masters program. I was having trouble getting out the right application which would portray an accurate picture of myself and make me stand out amongst the other applicants. Saniya helped me not only shortlist the universities that best matched my academic and social goals, but also steered me to the right programs. She then guided me in getting my resume, documents and credentials in order. However most important was our session where we spoke about my achievements, goals, aspirations and other things which were essential for writing my personal statements, essays and writing samples. Saniya was always there for me as a mentor whether I needed a nudge or a head on collision. Thanks to her I got selected for a Masters program at the University of British Columbia (UBC) and the prestigious Chevening scholarship.
