Ever wonder why we always want to buy clothes and shoes which fit perfectly? Not too big, not too small. Just the right fit. Applying to universities is similar in many ways! As soon as a student embarks on the Nixor journey, our team of experienced  counselors aim to do just that – help them discover what Universities are the right fit for them. We begin by asking students what are the most important factors for them. What field of study are they interested in?  Is there a particular region of the world where they would like to study? We then match their preferences to the academic requirements of the individual universities, and help the students with each and every stage of the university application process.

In addition to the factors mentioned above, we advise our students to take a few minutes to think about the questions given below:

Share the responses with us and that will help us where you fit in best.

• What do you think of when you hear the word “college”?

• Who do you know who goes to or has been to college?

• Where?

• Why do you think students continue on to college after high school?

• What jobs do you think require a college education?

• What colleges do you know about? How do you know about these colleges?

• What other things do you think that you can do in college besides study and take classes?

• Why do you want to go to college?​
