No endorsement of third-party services

We do not add any commission on third parties' services. The amounts listed on our website are the estimated prices charged by third parties, whether billed directly to the students or through us.

We are not responsible or liable for any services provided to our students by third parties. By working with third parties, such as a bank for opening bank accounts for students or a housing facility for accommodating students, we by no means endorse their services. Students should make use of such services at their own discretion.

Privacy policy

We treat all data held with the utmost care and security. Any details you give will remain completely confidential. The following summarizes our privacy policy:

We do not intentionally collect any information about individuals, except where it is specifically and knowingly provided by them and/or for internal statistics. The personal data collected will be used for necessary actions such as screening, host placements, visa application, etc.

We do not sell or share users' contact information.

For students who withdraw their applications, do not proceed with their applications, or fail the interviews before making any payments, their submitted documents, such as passports and transcripts, will be removed from our system in conjunction with the closing of the enrollment period.

We may share nonpersonal aggregate statistics (at a groupwide level) and data about our site visitors' traffic patterns with related parties.

We do share students' personal information with their schools (our partner universities) and related US government authorities, such as the Department of State, the Department of Homeland Security, and local embassies and consulates.

At each partner university's request, we cc or bcc them on our individual emails with their students as well as mass group announcements.

We do keep participants' records even after program completion in compliance with federal regulations (22 CFR S62.14). We do keep necessary registrant information even after account closure for statistics purposes.

We do share applicants' information for necessary situations, such as with host organizations for host assignments, the bank for account matters, the health insurance company regarding insurance plan subscriptions, and the housing facility where students reside for accommodation arrangements.
