How much does Mentor Hive charge for study abroad guidance?

Your first counselling session is completely free. For full application support, fees are discussed transparently after your profile evaluation — there are no hidden charges.

Will you push me towards certain universities for commission?

No. I am a certified career counsellor, not a university agent. My recommendations are based entirely on your profile, budget, and career goals. I have no incentive to push any specific university.

My grades are average. Can I still study abroad?

Yes, many universities abroad consider overall profile — work experience, personal statement, and motivation — not just grades. Book a free session and I will assess your profile honestly.

How long does the entire process take?

Typically 6 to 12 months from the initial counselling session to departure. I recommend starting at least 9 months before your intended intake.

Which English test do I need — IELTS or TOEFL?

It depends on the country and university. I will guide you on the right test based on your target destination. Some universities also offer waivers for Indian students.

Can I work while studying abroad?

Yes. Most countries allow 20 hours per week during term time and full-time during holidays. I will explain the specific rules for your target country.

What documents do I need to start the study abroad process?

To begin, just your academic marksheets and a clear idea of your budget and goals. We sort everything else together step by step.

I am based outside Mumbai. Can you still help me?

Absolutely. While I am based in Mumbai, I work with students from across India via online sessions on WhatsApp, Zoom, or Google Meet.
