How it Works

Here at Across the Pond, we know the process of studying in the UK can be daunting. We are here to make it as simple and streamlined as possible. All of our expert student advisors have studied in the UK and are personally motivated to help you do it, too. Not only that, most of us used Across the Pond's service to aid us in our own applications! So, we know what we're talking about.

We consider it our job to make it as easy as possible for you to study in the UK!

When you contact Across the Pond, you will be assigned a personal Student Advisor. All of our advisors have studied in the UK, and are dedicated full-time staff. Your personal UK study expert advisor will guide you through the entire process and be your contact person with us throughout the process. That way, you will always have a dedicated person you can ask questions about anything related to studying in the UK. Your advisor will make sure that you make all the deadlines and criteria for you to have your dream of a studying in the UK come true!

WHAT DOES MY STUDENT ADVISOR DO FOR ME?

There are several steps in the application process to UK universities and we help you through each step to make everything a little easier for you. In the first instance, your advisor will help you find the right university and course for you. We do this by looking at your academic background, your career ambitions, what you want to study as well as other elements that are important to you, and then your advisor will match you up with our universities in the UK to help you find the perfect place that meets your needs. You may have requirements such as proximity to the airport, sports facilities, size of city, geographical location, natural surroundings, international environment, the opportunity to bring family/children, your dog or the horse - or something completely different. We look at everything that is important to you before we match you up with the universities and what they have to offer!

After you have found the perfect university and course for you, the next step begins. Your advisor will guide you through documents and information the universities need via our application portal here on our website. Furthermore, the advisor will create the entire application for you so you don´t have to worry about the application at all. When your application is ready, we will send you login details so that you can easily review the application before you submit it to the universities. Your advisor will help you accept the offer from the university when you have made your choice, and everything that needs to be done before university starts and you arrive in the UK. There are many pieces that need to fall into place before you are able to go to the UK to study, and your advisor is there all the way and will help you with absolutely everything you need!
