Our Students
I am writing to recognize VIEC for their commendable guidance through my MBA application process for USA.
I had very specific requirement respect to my course, city and major. The counseling team showed high level
of knowledge and patience when it came to shortlisting the course and answering each of my questions. Not
only did they gave personal attention in helping me write SOP's and Essays but also helped me secure a
100% scholarship at Pepperdine University which I am extremely thankful for. This is where most other
consultants fail to deliver. I recommend students who wish to study in US to just visit the nearest VIEC office
and be rest assured of a remarkable service and time/money well spent!!

United Kingdom was my dream destination for studies after my graduation in India. I am writing to you as
I am In the process of realizing my dreams of studying a Masters degree in Information Technology in one
of the best Universities in the world. I processed my all my work through VIEC. VIEC helped me in all
possible way and with all other necessary documents which were required for visa. VIEC counsellors
have good knowledge on the possible opportunities and they left no stone unturned to help me earn it.
And I really thanks VIEC from my bottom of my HEART...!!
- Muzzammil nagori (UK)
VIEC made it easier for me to fulfill my dream of studying in Australia. The agent I was assigned was quite
helpful assisting me at every point. Starting from the selection of the best university till the completion of
documentation for my visa. Surely it would have been impossible to study abroad if VIEC was not there.
Its been one year that I am studying in Australia but still whenever I need any guidance regarding any
issue about University courses or Visa, not only in Pakistan but even Australia, I always turn back to VIEC
for help. Thank you VIEC !
- Mashaal Mohmood (AUSTRALIA)
All my friends had lot many complaints about going to other consultants, but I never had any.The
experience with VIEC was like being with Family. I was never treated as an applicant, they always made
me feel a part of them. They guided me through out with a friendly & positive attitude which helped me
fulfill my dreams. Anyone who wants to rise high must surely come to VIEC.
- Sonam Nathani (CANADA)
New Zealand was my dream destination for studies after my graduation in India. I must thank VIEC, who
guided my very professionally, giving me various choices, They helped me in choosing Auckland
University of Technology which is one of the best university in New Zealand, VIEC arranged offer letter
and helped me to get my visa documents ready. Getting students visa does have problems and one
needs expert guidance, which was provided by VIEC. VIEC provide the best services to their students.
Ths staff is very friendly, ready to help always. I look forward to a bright future after successful completing

“I was thrilled to bits when Dr Gary Wills accepted my proposal for the PhD” quipped Dayani Jayasinghe.
“The Southampton brand carries a lot of weight with employers locally and globally. Conducting
research in an environment where you have inventors and others on top of their fields will raise my game.
The University takes customer service very seriously. The advice I received from VIEC, their
representative in Sri Lanka, initially with my proposal and there after applying for the visa which included
my dependents was extremely helpful. Even I, a lecturer for the past 10 years, could not find any shortfall
in their work” explained Dayani.
