Why Choose RISE?
Stories of Success
I can confidently say that choosing this team was one of the best decisions I made during my application journey. I was stressed, confused, and unsure where to begin, but from the very first call, they made me feel heard, supported, and empowered. They don’t treat you like just another client—they treat you like family.
Their services are highly professional, extremely well-structured, and what impressed me the most is that they are far more affordable and reasonable compared to most Indian consultants—while offering even better quality, personal attention, and honest guidance.
A very special thank you to Aakriti Jain. She wasn’t just my advisor—she became my emotional support. She patiently listened to my concerns, celebrated my small wins, and guided me like a true mentor. It genuinely felt like I had someone walking this path with me.
To all future students—if you want the right guidance, transparent advice, and emotional support during one of the most important phases of your life, this is the team to trust. They helped me get my dream admit, and I will forever be thankful for the role they played in my success.
My counselor, Aakriti, was exceptional from start to finish. She guided me through each step of the application process, from selecting the best universities for my M.Arch to crafting a compelling SOP and submitting my applications. She also assisted me with filling out my DS-160 form and thoroughly preparing me for the visa interview.
What truly set Aakriti apart was her unwavering dedication and availability. No matter the time of day, she was always there to address any doubts or concerns I had, responding immediately and providing constant motivation. Her expertise and encouragement made what could have been a stressful process, smooth and manageable.
I highly recommend Rise Higher Education to anyone seeking guidance for their higher education journey. With professionals like Akriti on their team, you can be assured of receiving top-notch support and achieving your academic goals.
They were of great help to draft SOPs, LORs according to the particular school needs. Also, they helped me with shortlisting schools and find a right school for me.
Thank you so much team for all the efforts you have put in my applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is RISE?
RISE Higher Education Inc is your trusted education counselor, simplifying your higher education journey with comprehensive, data-backed counseling and admission services, including expert counseling, test prep, application support, visa assistance, and university transition services.
Catering to both domestic and international aspirants, RISE supports students pursuing full-time degrees, diplomas, or certificate programs abroad – ranging from undergraduate and postgraduate studies to research-based or executive-level programs. Committed to democratizing access to higher education, RISE strives to make quality education accessible and enrich students’ lives.
Seasoned counselors and university mentors are both vital to a student’s success, each playing a crucial role at specific stages. RISE strategically aligns both, ensuring students benefit from the best of both worlds at the right time.
Does RISE only help with partner university admissions?
Although there’s nothing wrong with it, quite the opposite! RISE’s forte is securing admissions to top-tier universities worldwide, prioritizing student choice based on profile and preferences – whether partner or non-partner institutions.
Our pricing strategy follows a student-first approach. With 1,400+ university and college partnerships worldwide, applying to a partner university offers slight economic benefits, as a portion of the cost is covered by the university through placement incentives. However, students are never restricted – they are equipped with the best options and have the freedom to apply where they truly belong, gaining a strategic economic advantage.
Is RISE free?
RISE is not a contributor to the irony of educationists working on charity – quality guidance deserves value. That said, all core counseling, admissions, and visa services are completely complementary. We offer tiered plans with value-added services like essay editing, mentor connect, test preparation, and document review. Plus, your first discovery session is free! Students can even upgrade their plan at any stage based on their needs. Compare plans and find your best fit
What doesn’t RISE do?
We know how important your study abroad journey is, and we believe in honest, transparent guidance. Admissions and scholarships aren’t guaranteed – this isn’t a ‘pay and get an I-20’ scheme. Our students secure admits and scholarships at top institutions based on their profiles, and we only take on applications where we can truly add value. No false hopes, no wasted time or money on unrealistic applications.
Quality mentorship matters. That’s why we don’t connect you with inexperienced mentors who rely solely on their or a few classmates’ essays and self-proclaim as mentors for part-time income.
We don’t believe in gimmicks – no free plane tickets, laptops, ‘Buy One, Get One’ applications, or in-house scholarships for partner institutions. We do not ask for or accept tuition fee transfers into our account. Students must transfer fees directly to the university. At most, we can help you compare the most feasible tuition fee transfer options, but at no point will we ask you to transfer any part of your fees to us.
We strictly do not entertain Change of Agent requests and will not offer any financial benefit for signing Representation forms – these should remain with counselors who have worked hard on them.
Finally, we do not buy or pay for testimonials. Every review and success story comes directly from students who have genuinely benefited from our services.
Our focus is on real, results-driven guidance to help you achieve your goals the right way.
Is it compulsory to take all services from RISE?
RISE offers complete flexibility – you can opt for a bundled experience or select only the services you need. Our platform eliminates the hassle of hopping between multiple providers by integrating test prep, counseling, applications, and financial planning into a one-stop, AI-powered experience – saving you time, money, and effort.
Our biggest strength – and economic moat – is that we provide all counseling and admission services under one roof, ensuring seamless support at every step without getting in your way.
