From my first meeting with my mentor, I received invaluable guidance and motivation for my Oxbridge application. Mutual identification makes the mentorship extremely constructive and makes the final goal seem much more achievable.

A large part of my success is because of my mentor. She gave me the needed guidance and information which essentially made my dreams come true. I wouldn’t have gotten an offer if it wasn’t for her.

My mentors offered me invaluable insight throughout the application process. Applying for a prestigious university means you end up doubting yourself a lot, but my mentors were able to support me both academically and emotionally.
