In an exclusive interaction, Mayank Srivastava, Director of Grace Education and Migration Private Limited, shared insights into evolving global education trends, persistent student challenges, and the organization’s ambitious vision for the future.
“At Grace International, our philosophy is simple—students come first,” said Srivastava. “We don’t see ourselves as just an admissions consultancy. We position ourselves as long-term partners in a student’s global education journey.”
What sets Grace International apart is its end-to-end, 360-degree support system. From personalized course and university selection to visa processing, pre-departure orientation, accommodation assistance, and post-arrival support, the organization ensures students and parents feel confident and supported at every step.
With nearly two decades of experience in the education sector, Srivastava has been closely associated with international education and assessment ecosystems since 2006.
“We actively work with globally recognized examination and testing platforms such as TOEFL, GRE, LanguageCert, Skills for English, PSI, Paragon, and Prometric. Alongside exam support, we guide students through the complete study-abroad process with precision and care,” he explained.
Grace International’s holistic student support model is one of its strongest pillars.
“Once a student comes to us, we take ownership of the entire journey—from admission to settlement. This includes education loan assistance, financial planning, accommodation and hostel arrangements, and ongoing living support abroad,” Srivastava said.
Addressing common challenges faced by Indian students, he highlighted that lack of accurate and timely information often leads to poor decisions.
“Choosing the right course, identifying credible universities, planning finances, and managing visa documentation require expert guidance. Our role is to simplify these complexities and empower students with clarity,” he noted.
Another key differentiator is Grace International’s customized training and preparation framework.
“We offer personalized study plans, small batch training, regular mock tests, and focused one-on-one feedback. This approach significantly improves confidence, performance, and success rates,” he added.
Inclusivity remains a core value for the organization. “Talent exists everywhere, not just in metro cities. We actively support students from rural and small-town backgrounds through basic English training, confidence-building sessions, and detailed parent counseling,” Srivastava shared.
Recognizing the financial pressures associated with overseas education, Grace International provides structured support for scholarships, education loans, and budget planning, ensuring affordability does not limit ambition.
The organization’s professionalism and quality-driven processes have earned strong trust among international universities, resulting in long-standing global partnerships. This credibility has also been reflected in recent honors, including the 2024 Gold Award and the Best Performing Partner Award.
“These recognitions validate our team’s hard work and motivate us to raise the bar even higher,” Srivastava said.
Visa procedures—often the most stressful aspect of studying abroad—are handled with expertise and care at Grace International.
“Our experienced counselors guide students step by step, making the visa and documentation process smooth, transparent, and stress-free,” he assured.
Looking ahead, Srivastava outlined a bold and forward-looking vision.
“Over the next five years, our goal is to transform Grace International into a globally recognized education brand by expanding into new countries, strengthening international collaborations, and integrating advanced digital learning and counseling solutions.”
For aspiring students still hesitant to take the first step, his message is both inspiring and reassuring: “With the right guidance, no dream is too big. Take the first step—Grace International will walk with you throughout your entire journey
