Our Story
Road to Abroad was founded by Dr. Sriyash Mangal, who experienced the challenges of international PhD admissions firsthand. After completing his PhD in Cell and Developmental Biology at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU Munich) and conducting research at the Max Planck Institute, he recognized that many talented students lacked access to reliable, experience-based guidance.
What began as a mission to help students secure fully funded PhD positions abroad has grown into a consultancy supporting students pursuing undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral education at leading universities across the world.
Today, Road to Abroad has guided students from diverse academic backgrounds in building competitive applications, securing admissions, and taking confident steps toward international academic careers.
Fully Funded PhD Admissions
Fully funded PhD admissions remain our core area of expertise.
Unlike traditional study abroad consultancies, we understand the research ecosystem because we’ve been part of it. Our guidance is built on real experience with graduate admissions, research supervision, academic publishing, and international research environments.
We provide personalized support throughout every stage of the PhD application process, including:
- Profile evaluation and admissions strategy
- University and supervisor shortlisting
- Research interest refinement
- Academic CV optimization
- Statement of Purpose (SOP) review
- Research proposal review
- Recommendation letter guidance
- Supervisor outreach strategy
- Interview preparation
- Funding and scholarship guidance
Our goal is not simply to help students submit applications—we help them build competitive research profiles that demonstrate genuine academic potential.
Bachelor’s & Master’s Admissions
We also provide expert admission guidance for students seeking Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees at globally recognized universities in the USA, United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe.
We have particular expertise in supporting students applying to highly selective institutions, including Ivy League universities, Oxford, Cambridge, and other leading research-intensive universities worldwide.
Our undergraduate and postgraduate admission services include:
- University selection and application strategy
- Personal statement and essay guidance
- CV and extracurricular profile review
- Scholarship guidance
- Interview preparation
- Application review and submission support
Whether your goal is admission to an Ivy League university in the United States or a world-class institution in the UK, Canada, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, or Europe, we help you present your strongest possible application.
Study Visa Assistance
Receiving an admission offer is only one part of the journey.
Our experienced advisors also provide study visa assistance to help students prepare complete and accurate visa applications for their chosen destination. From document preparation and financial guidance to interview preparation where applicable, we support students throughout the visa process to ensure a smooth transition to their university abroad.
