Your Master's Degree Has The Power To Define the Next Decade of Your Life.

And why are most students approaching it completely wrong? The next sections tell you.

What Makes Some Students Irresistible to Elite Universities?

Every year, students from across India (and Tads) secure admits to Harvard, Stanford, LSE, and Imperial - not because they're the smartest, but because they've built profiles that admissions committees can't ignore.

Here's what admissions officers at top universities are actively seeking when they review applications:

"We need students who will shape industries, lead innovation, and create meaningful impact. Show us evidence that you're already doing this—not just planning to do it after graduation."

The distinction? While most applicants focus on grades and test scores, successful candidates demonstrate leadership, research excellence, and real-world impact that validates their potential for greatness.

“My life’s turning point was joining Tads mentorship! Getting accepted to NUS & Imperial for their flagship finance postgrad programmes was simply a dream coming true. The previous year, when I applied by myself, I only received rejections. But after one year of intensive profile development with Hardik, Naman, and all other advisors at Tads, I ended up with offers from all my dream universities. Most importantly, I am a lot more confident to go to university as a more prepared candidate.

All Other Consultants (Application Support Model)

Your Success is Our Assurance.

Tads Boasts a 100% Student Success Rate - But We're Selective.

Every single student who has completed our program has received admits to top-tier universities.

But here's what makes this possible:
1) We limit our intake to maintain quality (maximum 150 students annually)
2) We're honest about fit and turn away students who aren't ready for our intensity
3) We focus on long-term relationships, not quick transactions
4) We maintain the lowest client-to-mentor ratio in the industry (15:1 maximum)

No University Commissions

Unlike other consultants, we don't take commissions from universities. Our recommendations are based purely on what's best for your career, not our profit margins.

Lifetime Mentorship


Once you join Tads, you become family. Our support continues through your master's program and into your career. Many of our alumni are now support mentors in our program.
