“After receiving an offer solely from the University of Westminster, my confidence was significantly shaken.After working with Afinity for more than months I finally got offers from UCL, Kings & Queen Mary. University has just changed my life and till today I still can’t believe that the entire 1-1 help and the team support that was made available to me for free. My heartfelt thanks go to Andrew and the dedicated team for their unwavering support and guidance.”

"The course was so useful in showing me how to structure the statement. I loved my reviews as well - brutal but necessary and rather that than be told that my personal statement was better than it was."

"My advisor tore apart my personal statement, helped me understand what admissions officers are actually looking for, and I really don’t think I could have done it without Afinity."
