our curators:

My name is Anastasia, and I am an admissions mentor for the USA. From early childhood, I dreamed of helping people achieve their goals. This dream led me to SelfStart Global, where I found my calling. I have been working at SelfStart for over two years, and during this time my students have collectively received more than $400,000 in funding to study abroad.
I am an expert in admissions, preparing high-quality application materials, and submitting applications for undergraduate and master’s programs. The admissions process in the United States can be long and complex, and handling it alone can be challenging.
Together with a strategist and the SelfStart team, we are ready to support you in achieving your dream.

Hi everyone! My name is Anastasia, and I once independently applied to and was accepted into a bachelor’s program at the University of Vienna, developing my own individual strategy and studying all the specifics of applying to Austrian universities. Now I’m planning to change my field of study, and I know from personal experience that nothing is impossible on this path either.
During my time working at the company, I not only learned in detail the specifics of applying to various programs and degree levels in European countries, but I also had the opportunity to meet many intelligent and talented students whose successes I am proud of.
📚 Among the students I’ve worked with are programmers, engineers, foreign language teachers, international relations specialists, theater and film actors, and fashion designers. I helped these students get accepted into universities such as: Sciences Po (France), The Hague UAS (Netherlands), NHL Stenden (Netherlands), Macromedia (Germany), INSA Lyon (France), Sapienza (Italy), Politecnico di Milano (Italy), Howest (Belgium), and Marangoni (Italy).
I’m happy to start building your path to your dream university with you! Don’t hesitate to ask any questions.

Hi guys! My name is Anastasia, I am a strategist and curator at SelfStartGlobal. I once studied at a US college and entered the Public Affairs program at the University of Texas at Austin. Having gained this experience, I realized that I wanted to help others fulfill their dreams.
Now I am a curator and strategist at SelfStartGlobal, over 5 years of working in the company, more than 50 students have entered leading universities abroad with me, most of them chose the following areas:
- Business
- Computer Science
- Engineering
During my work as a curator, I wrote several hundred motivational letters in which I helped students show their strengths. And the total amount of scholarships for my students already exceeds $1 million.
Don’t let your dreams remain dreams! I will help you go through the path to foreign education without stress and panic 🙂

Hello everyone! My name is Daria, and I am a mentor at SelfStartGlobal. I help students gain admission to leading universities around the world. Here are a few facts about me:
I studied in China, Japan, and Austria with full funding. I have completed several admissions cycles to top universities in the USA and Europe across various undergraduate and master’s programs.
My students have been admitted to Drexel University, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, HULT, TUM, EDHEC, Frankfurt School of Finance, Parsons School of Design, and other prestigious educational institutions around the world with funding packages exceeding $60,000.
Over 7 years of experience working as an English teacher have taught me how to explain complex things in simple terms and support my students even during the most challenging times.
I will be happy to help you achieve success on the path to your dream!

Hello! My name is Darina, and I will be your mentor 🙂
Let me tell you a little about myself:
- in 2022, I received an offer of admission to New York University;
- I would like to note that the acceptance rate that year was at a record low;
- my TOEFL score is 114/120;
- during the application process, back in 2021, I had an interview with an alumnus of Stanford University, and my interviewer and I are still in touch;
I went through all stages of the application process on my own, so I will help you go through this path comfortably as well!
We will work together on your successful admission. This will be responsible and challenging work, but trust me, it is definitely worth it ❤️️

My name is Katerina, and I will be your admissions mentor 🎓
Let me tell you a bit about myself. I independently gained admission to the Erasmus Mundus master’s program with full funding and a monthly stipend. I studied at the University of Groningen, Ghent University, and the University of Eastern Finland, and also completed an internship at the Basque Center on Brain, Cognition and Language in Spain.
My journey began with the same desire to study abroad that you have. Starting with applications to small international forums, I was able to achieve my dream—studying abroad and earning a degree from one of Europe’s top universities.
Now, I will share my experience and knowledge to help you go through the admissions process with confidence and comfort. Together, we will unlock your potential and put together an application that will impress the admissions committee 😉
I look forward to meeting you on our call and hope for a productive and successful collaboration!

Good day! It’s a pleasure to meet you!
I made the decision to apply to a university in another country in a single day, at the beginning of October 2022 (spoiler alert: I received the desired offer at the beginning of March 2023). Choosing between the USA and Europe, carefully researching universities and evaluating my strengths and weaknesses, I settled on Italy, and was accepted into all 5 universities I applied to (Sapienza University of Rome, University of Pavia, University of Parma, Catholic University of the Sacred Heart, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore).
I have also repeatedly helped friends and acquaintances with choosing educational institutions and programs, writing and reviewing motivation letters, and providing advice on applying not only to Italy, but also to other countries in Europe, the USA, and Asia! Therefore, I know for sure that a well-defined strategy and persistent, sometimes meticulous work are the main principles for achieving your goal 😎
I will be happy to provide any help and support on this confusing but very exciting journey! As they say, only the sky is the limit (although I believe that even the sky isn’t the limit, even when it comes to the Ivy League 😉).
Let’s go! 🚀

My name is Elizaveta, and from now on I will be your mentor! 🙂
Let’s get acquainted! Let me tell you about my background:
🌟 I was admitted to Franklin and Marshall College, a private American university, where I am studying “Neuroscience: Biological Foundations of Behavior” (and every year I make it onto the Dean’s List for perfect grades in all subjects!).
🌟 I received 90% funding, as well as a work-study opportunity (to cover personal expenses).
🌟 I am a researcher in two leading laboratories at the university, focusing on Development of Moral Values and Face Perception.
My experience has allowed me to understand that the application process is an interesting (and, of course, challenging) journey that not only leads to your dream but also helps you learn a lot about yourself! I am very happy to go through this journey with you and share all my knowledge!

Hi, my name is Elizaveta! I would be happy to be your admissions advisor. Let me tell you a little about myself and my experience 😊
In 2019, I had the opportunity to participate in an academic mobility program at the Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, where I completed my bachelor’s degree and conducted my final research at one of the best European research centers! After that, I was invited to a master’s program in “International Relations, Security and Development.” I also received offers from the Universidad de Barcelona and Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, and a scholarship from Universitat Pompeu Fabra that covered 50% of all expenses. But my heart remained with the Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona!
These achievements inspired me to help other students. I started supporting younger colleagues in applying to and receiving scholarships in various European countries, such as Spain, France (Sciences Po), Italy (Università di Bologna), Belgium (University of Antwerp), Ireland (Trinity College Dublin), and Finland. As well as in the USA: University of Chicago, Syracuse University, and University of South Carolina.
My journey has given me valuable experience working with documents, interacting with admissions committees, and building a personal brand. I look forward to collaborating with you to unlock your potential and help you achieve your goals.

Good afternoon!
Nice to meet you! 😊 My name is Karina. I’d like to briefly share my experience.
I personally went through all stages of applying to top flagship universities in the USA, including the University of North Carolina, the University of Florida, and others. The University of Georgia became my main university for study 🏛️ Therefore, I know all the pitfalls and secrets of successful admission, and I will help you go through this journey as comfortably and efficiently as possible 💪
Together, we will create a strong application that will impress the admissions committees of your chosen universities! I am an expert in U.S. admissions with funding, and I will help with evaluating your chances, building a personal brand, and writing compelling motivation and recommendation letters. 💡
I will carefully review your case in the near future, and we will begin our work together!

Hi, my name is Karina, nice to meet you! A little about me:

🎓 I am well-versed in the admissions processes for the USA and Europe.
🎓 I completed internships and gained work experience in European companies.
🎓 I have helped more than 50 students gain admission to their dream universities with scholarships.

Since 2020, I have been helping to apply abroad with a scholarship and take on even the most difficult flights. More than 50 guys have already fulfilled their dreams with me! I work with different areas: design, bioinformatics, pedagogy, journalism, business and finance, clinical psychology and more – the list is constantly growing.
My students study at universities such as:
- Edinburgh University (Great Britain)
- Maastricht (Netherlands), Radboud (Netherlands)

I am also developing a methodological base and internal training for the curatorial department so that the SelfStartGlobal team can achieve even better results for our students!

Hi! A little about me 🙂
In 2020, I enrolled at the University of Lodz in the “International Relations and Political Studies” program, receiving a scholarship covering 50% of the tuition fees. During my bachelor’s degree, I had the prestigious opportunity to participate in Erasmus+ exchange programs in countries such as the Czech Republic (Charles University), Croatia (University of Zagreb), and Turkey (Istanbul Aydin University).
Currently, I am pursuing a Master’s degree in “Human Rights and Multi-level Governance” at one of the best universities in Italy, the University of Padua. Here I receive funding of approximately 8000 euros per year, and I am pursuing my Master’s degree free of charge!
During my Master’s studies, I also worked closely with the international office. This allowed me to learn everything that the admissions committee generally pays attention to when making decisions. Working with the university gave me a clear understanding of all the intricacies of applying to European universities 😌
With this knowledge, I helped my friends and acquaintances receive offers from universities in Italy (University of Turin, University of Bologna), Hungary (Eötvös Loránd University), France (Claremont Graduate University), and Poland (Warsaw University of Technology).
I will gladly share my knowledge and experience to help you achieve your goal and get accepted into your chosen university. Together we will make your dream of studying abroad a reality! 😉

Hi, nice to meet you! My name is Ulyana. In 2022, I independently gained admission to the Università degli Studi di Siena for the “Linguistics and Cognitive Studies” program and received a scholarship 🇮🇹
For the past two years, I have been helping students gain admission to universities in Europe and the USA. Together with my applicants, we have also secured scholarships totaling more than €300,000.
I am convinced that studying abroad opens up numerous opportunities for personal and professional growth. You will immerse yourself in a new culture, master a foreign language, and make friends from all over the world. Studying in another country not only broadens your horizons but also increases your competitiveness in the job market. Gaining admission to a foreign university is a chance to receive a high-quality education from top professors.
I believe in the power of international education, hard work, and teamwork. Together, we can make your dream a reality 💫

Hi! My name is Ziyash, and I am your admissions mentor.
My journey in the field of international education began in 2023. Over two years, I have worked with universities in the USA, Europe, and Asia. Among the admission offers received, I would like to highlight the following universities: the University of Southern California, Washington University in St. Louis, the University of Pittsburgh, Drexel University, and the University of Minnesota. Working with top U.S. universities, I not only learned the intricacies of applying to educational institutions but also how to work with internal scholarships.
Building a personal brand and crafting strong motivation and recommendation letters are an integral part of my work, and I am here to help you along this path. Ahead of us lies meticulous work that will require patience and energy, but every step you take will lead you directly to your goal. I will support you at every stage and help you navigate potential pitfalls.
Get ready for an exciting adventure! We are starting our journey to the USA! 🚀
