Testimonials
Abhishek Royal
Master’s in Public Health, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Indonesia
Everyone at SSGSA was extremely supportive. When I joined SSGSA, I felt that I did not know how to present my accomplishments and talents properly. I feel medicos often have difficulties in doing so, and for me, even making a resume seemed like a gargantuan task. Furthermore, at the time, no one from SSGSA had pursued Masters in Public Health, which was the field in which I wanted to specialize. There were significant obstacles to overcome, but the senior figures at SSGSA, in particular, Rehan Bhai, Saif Bhai, Rizvi Bhai, Mohsin Bhai and my friends, Ali Muzaffar and Afzal Shadab guided me throughout my journey. They advised me on approaching the application process in the right way and helped me improve my presentation skills.

SSGSA is a boon for all of us. This selfless effort by our alumni is beyond our imagination. I am grateful to the SSGSA family for everything they did for me. I truly owe this great organization a lot. If ever given a chance I would love to contribute to taking this organization to the pinnacle of excellence. To all my friends who are really passionate about studying abroad, I must tell you that this opportunity is worth your long tiring hours of endeavor and sleepless nights. Get up and grab it.

SSGSA team was always there to provide me the best suggestions, guidelines and show the appropriate pathway which was much needed during those setbacks. I appreciate the kind support of my capable mentors and the whole cohort of SSGSA, who worked with me in order to motivate me.
Dr. Mohammad Zulqarnain
Postdoctoral Researcher at Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands
SSGSA program has always been a source of inspiration for me from the beginning of my pursuit of higher education. I am extremely thankful to the SSGSA team members who guided and helped me. I had the privilege of getting multiple PhD offers from the US and Europe. It was getting difficult for me to choose the right one. Finally, my mentors and other SSGSA members helped me to choose the best one.
Dr. Mudasir A. Yatoo
Research Associate at Imperial College, London
In my opinion, it is the feeling of possibility that the SSGSA program brings to your perspective as an aspiring graduate course applicant. The lack of physicality, the tangibility of an institution a student aspires to be a part of is a major impediment to imagining possibilities; it is the space where a human mind (applicant in this case) generally struggles and SSGSA, in my opinion, does a great job to fill that chasm of impossibility.
Ali Muzaffar
Master’s in Engineering/Industrial Management, University of California, Irvine
I was awarded SSESA during the third year of the undergraduate program and I had applied to eight universities of which I got admits from four. They (SSESA members) helped me to write my resume, to edit my SOP apart from helping financially. Most importantly, they kept me motivated throughout the application process
