The student journey: How StudyPortals helps students

At StudyPortals, we strive to always put the student’s interest first. Our goal: the best platform for students to find and compare their global education options. We help our users finding the right programme that best matches their interests and personalities.

For students, study choice can be a lengthy and complex process – we want to help them at every step along the journey. StudyPortals does not only deliver relevant information for their course search but also provides information about scholarships, student housing, other student experiences and much more. On 7 dedicated websites, we list over 100,000 study programmes from more than 2,300 schools and universities worldwide.

StudyPortals provides support and guidance throughout the entire educational process.

By bringing universities and students together, students can use our various portals to design their personal study choice. Starting from discovering their dream university to considering and comparing study programmes, the application and finally the enrolment, we accompany students through every stage of their decision-making process.

With over 135,000 study reviews, STeXX provides personal experiences from students for students. Alumni even have the option to give back and help prospective students with more in-depth questions about studying at a particular university.

Additional services like free personality and country tests can support the decision what and where to study and figuring out which disciplines best matches their interests. In addition, StudyPortals supports Generation Study Abroad, an initiative by the Institute of International Education that wants to stimulate US students studying abroad. Over 60,000 students follow StudyPortals on Facebook to be up to date on inspiring articles about education, newly listed programmes and schools as well as fun facts and general information about our company.

During the compare phase, we help students choose between 100,000 courses offered by over 2,100 institutions around the world. Once a student gets closer to a decision what and where to study, monthly personalised updates with information that matches their interest, keeps them informed about their possibilities and also gives them the chance to learn about newly added institutes or programmes. By providing our users with relevant programme recommendations and webinars for comparing study programmes,  we enhance the decision-making process.

In addition, StudyPortals offers free webinars in cooperation with our partner Web2Present. They introduce different programmes and universities, but also explain how to apply at certain universities. Additionally, hundreds of informative articles cover everything from the latest University rankings, how to cover tuition fees or getting a scholarship over the top institutes to top-paying careers.

StudyPortals also assists students during the application process. AdmissionTestPortal provides relevant information regarding the preparations a student must undertake before applying. Partnerships with all major international student organisations help students get in touch with current students. At this stage, most students already reach out for accommodation in the city they are planning to study. Uniplaces helps to safely and easily find and book rooms all over the world.

Finally, once students enrol at your university, we want to celebrate with them! We send them a small gift, like a University hoodie, to make the start of their study experience even more special. In addition, for students who want additional financial help, the

In addition, for students who require additional financial help, ScholarshipPortal lists over 1,200 different scholarships. Together with the British Council and the international student card provider ISIC, we also award students with the Global Study Awards that recognises studying abroad as a positively life-changing experience for students and rewards them with a fund of up to £ 10,000.

Last but not least: we truly believe in the importance of (good) education. Apart from helping students every day to make the right choice, we especially want to support those with very limited chances. The StudyPortals foundation currently supports Knowledge for Children and other charity causes that make an impact in the field of education or in the communities of our global team.
