We build the school list according to the student's academic level, interests and personality.
Take a lookFor most students, summer school is the first meeting with life abroad.
Take a lookChoosing a university is also choosing a career and a country.
Take a lookFirst we talk about where you want to get in your career.
Take a lookIn their words
Bachelor'sBerkay walked us through the whole process openly; he didn't hide what we could do or what would be hard. When a few things went wrong, he found solutions and pulled it all together.
FoundationAt the start I was looking at other countries, but none of them felt right. Then, with Berkay, I found out I could study in Spain. My foundation year is done, thank you :)
Bachelor'sWhen you talk to Berkay, you see he doesn't beat around the bush. He never said yes to something that wasn't going to happen. We still keep in touch, so big hellooo from here
Bachelor'sAt every step of the process I knew exactly where I stood. Thank you, Berkay.
Master'sHe didn't only tell me about the nice possibilities; we talked honestly about the pros and cons of each option. This is my second year in Berlin. I'd recommend building a strong network at school.
Master'sOur plan changed a few times during the application. Last minute changes at the previous school put us in a difficult spot. My wife and my 3 children are here with me, too. Berkay quickly looked at the alternatives and brought us here step by step. We have now been in Vancouver for 6 months.
Master'sBerkay has a lot of energy; our meetings were always productive. He answered questions openly, and when he didn't know something, he looked into it and came back to me. I especially appreciated that honesty.
Master'sTalking to Berkay was very easy; from the first meeting it felt like we had known each other for a long time. He explained the process clearly, without dragging it out. His energy is contagious.
Language schoolI had far too many countries in mind. Berkay went through each one and drew up a realistic road map. Attentive, lively and always following up; thank you.
Master'sFriendly, but serious and clear when it matters.
FoundationI'm in my second year now. I came with a lounge visa. We started the application at the end of November and by the end of January I was in class. Thanks, Berkay.
Bachelor'sTop level consultancy... thank you...
Bachelor'sIf you don't get the required language test score on time, you may hear a firmer tone (it happened), but in the end you see how hard he worked for you. Thank you so much for everything.
Bachelor'sBerkay is easy to talk to; he really listens. He told me not only the good sides but also what I needed to watch out for.
Bachelor'sBerkay felt like both a consultant and someone I already knew. He was sincere when explaining the process and never brushed off my questions. He is also very driven about moving things forward.
Master'sWhen something we had planned changed, Berkay drew up a new route right away. Instead of panic, he offers options.
Bachelor'sBerkay is straightforward and solution focused. The way he follows things up gives you confidence.
Bachelor'sI didn't expect this to be so easy.
Bachelor'sIt's hard to keep up with Berkay's pace, but that energy is what moves things forward. (sparks :))
How do we work?
Eight steps from the first meeting to the student's first week in a new city. Here are four of them:
First meeting
We listen first. We do not talk about schools before we understand the student's interests, goals and the family's expectations.
Roadmap
After setting the goal, we draw the path to it. We share country, field of study and school options with you, together with why we suggest each one.
Applications
We prepare the file each school asks for in full and complete the applications according to each school's own calendar. We regularly share with you which document was sent to which school and when.
After arrival
The first mornings in a new city feel a little strange. At the end of the first week, we have a meeting with our student: classes, housing, new friends, suggestions.
Who are we?
We are Elsewhere Academics. We offer study abroad consulting. For high school, summer school, language school, bachelor's and master's, we guide the student to the most suitable school, and we walk through the process together, from application to departure.
Berkay Yılmaz, the founder of Elsewhere Academics, has been doing study abroad consulting for more than 20 countries since 2022. He founded Elsewhere because he believes every student who goes abroad is a spark.
