Background Story
As an international student with high ambitions, Jessica’s journey to matriculating at a top-tier university was not without its challenges. Jessica’s path to success began with her decision to attend an all-girls boarding school in the US. This move allowed her to broaden her perspective by making friends from different walks of life and immersing herself in a dynamic and inclusive environment. With hard work and determination, she completed her high school studies with an impressive 3.75 GPA. Despite her academic achievements, her high school college application fell short of her targets. As a result, she enrolled at NYU to pursue a degree in International Relations, reflecting her passion for global affairs and desire to make a positive impact on the world.
While studying at NYU, Jessica realized that she longed for a different kind of academic and social environment. She knew that she needed a transfer consultant to help her navigate the competitive transfer process and find the perfect university that would offer her the resources and support she needed to excel in the field of international relations. That’s when she connected with us here at Transfer Goat.
