2022 Success Stories
Shambhavi Thakur
India, Milestones alumna, Class of 2022; student at City University of London (London, UK)
“I got into all universities I applied to!”
I did get into all the places I applied to. I think mainly it was because I prepared so much for the American schools with the Milestones team that I was able to apply easily to the British ones. I definitely noticed that British universities didn’t require my whole background. They wanted to know why I wanted to study, and what my motivation was.
They do clearly have their guidelines; what they require. Now, I’m finally going to the United Kingdom, to the City University of London. One of the main reasons I chose it is because it’s part of the University of London. There’s a lot of creativity, and you get to connect with other campuses, professors, and students.
Also, it’s very globally recognized. I found the perfect course [major], and not many universities have it. It’s an international political economy course. I want to focus more on economics and international politics; that’s perfect for me, that’s exactly what I was looking for. I got into all universities I applied to, including Northeastern, the University of Richmond, UCL, City University of London, and Wake Forest University.
Quick Tips: “Don’t focus too much on the exact university at the beginning; start writing and drafting your essays. If you are a freshman right now, engage in extracurriculars. Those matter a lot: things you can add to your CV to make it more appealing to universities. Don’t be afraid to ask for help at Milestones!”
