I sincerely appreciate the exceptional counseling provided by Academy One (Mr. Jay Rege & Mrs. Jothsna Rege) for my study abroad journey. Their punctuality, efforts, and responsiveness were highly impressive, and their invaluable suggestions were crucial in shaping my study plans. Their empathetic approach created a comfortable environment, making it easy to discuss my concerns and aspirations for studying abroad. Additionally, their mock interview preparation for obtaining a visa was exceptional and played a pivotal role in building my confidence. Thanks to their support, I successfully secured my study visa, and I highly recommend their professional services to anyone seeking guidance for studying abroad.

Siddharth Ranjan

Jay Sir and Jothsna Maám have helped me a lot during my application process, and they also helped me prepare for my visa interview. I was tensed about whether I would get an admission and crack my interview or not, but thanks to them, everything is fine, and I am finally going to pursue my Master's.

I went to Academy One for counseling for my Masters applications. I would definitely say that the whole process was made really smooth by Jay and Jotsna Rege. Me being a US citizen living in India, some aspects of the applications were different for me, yet both of them took efforts to find out information for my particular case. Not only did they help me with the university selection and the SOPs but also cross checked every application before finally submitting it. The best part was they were always available for the smallest of doubts. I would recommend their counselling for aspiring masters students.

I decided to go ahead with Academy One after researching and contacting many other counsellors, and I had a wonderful experience with Academy One. The best thing about Mr. Jay Rege and Mrs. Jothsna Rege is that they are very experienced and always available to address our endless queries through a simple WhatsApp message or a phone call. Their guidance helped me a lot in all stages of the application process, right from university selection, multiple revisions of SOPs and resumes for different courses, to getting the visa. They even conducted online mentor connects and Q&A sessions to discuss about post admission procedures, financial planning, internship search, etc. I would strongly recommend Academy One to all aspiring graduate students.

‘Flexible, Responsive, Caring. Right from our first coaching session together, Jay Sir and Jothsna Mam helped me clarify my thoughts on my career transition and identify what I needed to do to move forward. They helped me navigate through the process by breaking down the steps I needed to take into bite-sized actions. Their follow- through is remarkable, as is their steadfast positive attitude and I would highly recommend them’.
