Success stories

Real students. Real admits.

Behind every name on our admit list is a story of late-night essay drafts, sharper rewrites and a strategy that finally clicked. Here are a few.

Profile patterns

What a winning file actually looks like.

Composite profiles: built from patterns across the students we work with, not individual applicants. Names, scores and awards are illustrative.

Varun Patel

Academics
7.3/10 GPA
Test
GRE 320 (Q168/V152)

No research or standout projects
Varun was a strong coder with good grades, but nothing signalled research ability: no papers, no substantial projects, no open-source. That is the exact signal top CS and Data Science programs read for.
The Abroadly fix: Rebuilt the file around two portfolio-grade projects and reframed on-the-job work as applied research, giving the committee the technical signal it screens for.
Below-median GPA
Varun's GPA sat below the class median, the kind of number that quietly filters a file out before the story is ever read.
The Abroadly fix: Offset the modest GPA with a strong test score and a clear upward-trajectory story, addressing the number directly instead of hoping the committee would miss it.
Outcome
University of Washington
“The Abroadly process turned a scattered profile into one clear story.”

Leadership not visible on paper
For all the strong numbers, Tanvi's leadership was invisible on paper: no owned initiatives, no team impact, which is exactly what MBA and MiM committees read for.
The Abroadly fix: Surfaced initiatives Tanvi had led but never highlighted, quantifying team size and outcomes so the leadership case was explicit.
Unclear career goals
Tanvi's goals read as a generic 'grow in the field,' leaving an adcom unsure the degree was really needed.
The Abroadly fix: Replaced the vague aim with a named role, a named industry, and the exact program resources that bridge the gap.
Outcome
Chicago Booth
$100,000 scholarship
“With Abroadly Inc., I finally knew what to write, where to apply, and how to stand out.”

No research or standout projects
Shreyas was a strong coder with good grades, but nothing signalled research ability: no papers, no substantial projects, no open-source. That is the exact signal top CS and Data Science programs read for.
The Abroadly fix: Rebuilt the file around two portfolio-grade projects and reframed on-the-job work as applied research, giving the committee the technical signal it screens for.
Last-minute timeline pressure
Shreyas started with only days before the deadline, nowhere near the months-long grind an application usually takes.
The Abroadly fix: Ran a structured sprint: locked the school list first, then reverse-engineered every essay from one core narrative so nothing was written twice.

Georgia Tech (MS Analytics) · Duke (MIDS)

Same-field degree justification
Anjali was applying for a master's in the same field as the bachelor's, which invites the obvious question: what does this actually add?
The Abroadly fix: Positioned the master's as depth, not repetition: named the exact specialisation and the US-market access the undergraduate degree left open.
Below-median GPA
Anjali's GPA sat below the class median, the kind of number that quietly filters a file out before the story is ever read.
The Abroadly fix: Offset the modest GPA with a strong test score and a clear upward-trajectory story, addressing the number directly instead of hoping the committee would miss it.

Below-median GPA
Dhruv's GPA sat below the class median, the kind of number that quietly filters a file out before the story is ever read.
The Abroadly fix: Offset the modest GPA with a strong test score and a clear upward-trajectory story, addressing the number directly instead of hoping the committee would miss it.
Proving quant readiness
Coming from a non-technical background, Dhruv had to convince analytics-heavy programs the quant skills were really there, not just claimed.
The Abroadly fix: Backed the file with hard evidence of quantitative ability: relevant coursework, tools, and a build-it project, so the analytics-heavy programs saw a safe bet.
Outcome
USC Marshall (MSF) · MIT Sloan (MFin)
“Abroadly gave me a structured approach that made it happen.”
Karan Sharma

Oversaturated applicant pool
As one more high-scoring Indian male engineer, Karan blended straight into the single most crowded applicant pool there is: strong numbers and no separation.
The Abroadly fix: Moved the story off scores and onto a specific technical thread the rest of the pool did not have, giving the committee a reason to remember the file.
Unclear career goals
Karan's goals read as a generic 'grow in the field,' leaving an adcom unsure the degree was really needed.
The Abroadly fix: Replaced the vague aim with a named role, a named industry, and the exact program resources that bridge the gap.
Outcome
UC Berkeley (Fung MEng) · Cornell (MEng Systems)
“The Abroadly process turned a scattered profile into one clear story.”
