Student stories

They were where you are. Now they live in Europe.

Every story below is from a real student we've placed, with their permission, in their own words. We don't edit for marketing polish, we publish what they sent us. The texture is the truth.

Featured story

"I had been rejected by my dream university twice. I was about to give up and take a job at home. Visagrad's founder spent three hours on a single call building a new story around why I had failed, and turned it into the SOP that got me into TUM with a €6,000 merit waiver."

"I'm the first in my family to study abroad. Nobody in Dhaka knew how to fill a Spanish visa form. Visagrad's founder walked me through it like a brother who'd been there twice."

BBA, IE University Madrid, 2024

"Full Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship. I didn't know it existed for Nigerian students until Visagrad pulled it up on the first call."

MA Public Policy, ELTE Budapest, 2024

"My GPA was 72%, not amazing. They didn't tell me to give up, they found Carlos III in Madrid, where I matched well. I'm now interning at a Madrid startup."

"I wanted to study architecture but had no portfolio. Visagrad helped me build one in six weeks and apply to Politecnico Milano. I'm there now."

"They got me a 40% scholarship at ESADE. I never thought a top business school in Europe would be financially possible. It is, just not without help."

"Visagrad was honest. They told me ETH was a stretch for my profile. We applied anyway, plus three target programs. I got into a target uni with funding. That honesty saved me three rejected applications."

PhD Engineering, EPFL, 2025

Tahmid R.
Chittagong, Bangladesh

"Medical degrees abroad scared my parents, too expensive, too far. Visagrad showed us the numbers in writing. Semmelweis costs less than a private medical college in Dhaka, and I'll have an EU-recognised degree."

Sneha H.

"I was set on Germany. Visagrad asked one good question, 'have you considered Hungary?' Stipendium Hungaricum changed my financials by €30,000+ over two years. I'm at ELTE, happily."
