Real Results from Real Users
Trusted by lecturers and students across Sri Lankan universities
"We used to spend an entire afternoon building fee comparison spreadsheets for prospective families. This tool does it in two minutes, and the weighted score feature is exactly what parents need to make an informed decision."
"The one-time fees breakdown finally makes SEVIS, visa, and application costs visible alongside tuition. Most comparison tools skip these entirely. This is a much more honest picture of what students will actually pay."
"Our students are choosing between programmes in France, Germany, and the Netherlands. Having health insurance, housing, and transport all in one table — with a downloadable PDF — has made advising sessions far more productive."
"The pros and cons panel is genuinely useful. It flags which programme wins on tuition, which wins on living costs, and which wins overall — without us having to explain the trade-offs manually every time."
