A local team that stays with your file
Big portals hand you to a call centre. Here the counsellor who assesses your marks is the one who files your visa.
One counsellor, start to finish
You are not passed between departments. The person who reviews your marksheet in the first meeting handles your applications, your SOP and your visa file.
Honest country fit
If your marks or budget do not suit a country, we say so in the first session rather than after you have paid.
Kannada, Marathi, Hindi, English
Parents sit in on most of our sessions. We explain the costs and the visa process in the language they prefer.
Everything under one roof in Hubli
IELTS coaching, SOP writing, loan paperwork and visa filing all happen at the Srinivas Enclave office, so nothing is outsourced to another city.
Your study abroad team in Hubli, not a call centre
SET Study Abroad Consultancy is part of The SET Institute, which has trained over 15,000 students in Hubli. We sit at Srinivas Enclave, opposite BVB, and students walk in every day to plan the UK, USA, Australia, Europe and MBBS abroad.
The counsellor who reads your marksheet on day one is the same person who shortlists your universities, edits your SOP and files your visa. Nothing is passed to another office or another city.

Which countries do you handle?
The UK, USA, Australia, Germany, Ireland and Canada, plus MBBS abroad in Russia, Georgia, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
Do I need IELTS for every country?
No. Requirements vary by country and university, and some accept alternatives. We check the exact requirement for your shortlist and run IELTS coaching in-house if you need it.

Yes. We counsel students across North Karnataka including Belagavi, Kalaburagi, Vijayapura, Ballari and Davanagere, by phone, video call and scheduled visits.
How early should I start?
About twelve months before your intended intake. Starting three months out limits you to whatever places remain.
