During her undergraduate studies, Jessica learned about Cheersyou through various on-campus promotional channels. She took the initiative to attend a Cheersyou Education campus event and shared her aspirations for graduate study with the counselors.

After assessing her profile and career goals, the Cheersyou team recommended a multi-country and multi-major hybrid application strategy.

While early graduation can provide a head start on a career, Liven worried whether a three-year US undergraduate degree would be competitive enough for graduate school. He felt overwhelmed by the complex application processes for his top choices—the "Top 3" in Hong Kong and the "Top 2" in Singapore.

By chance, Liven attended an online seminar hosted by Cheersyou Education. He was most impressed by the internship matching services offered to Cheersyou students, as such experiences significantly bolster the competitiveness of an application essay. Feeling the pressure of the application cycle, Liven sought Cheersyou’s help to secure an offer from his dream school.

To address his lack of practical experience, Cheersyou recommended an internship at a renowned automotive brand. This role provided Liven with valuable experience in project management and marketing, solidifying his desire to pursue structured courses in Economics and Quantitative Analysis to build a foundation for his future career.

After his interview with NUS, Cheersyou counselors advised Liven to send a follow-up thank-you letter to demonstrate his strong intent to enroll. One week later, he successfully secured his NUS offer.

Balancing academics, intensive research, and internships while managing the graduate application process brought Criz to a breaking point. With a high demand for "Elite School Titles," Criz realized his current grades did not grant him an absolute advantage, and the complexity of the applications was too much to handle alone. Consequently, he began searching for the right agency.

After comparing several firms, Criz found that Cheersyou Education had a deep understanding of UIC students and an extensive portfolio of successful cases from his alma mater. Seeing his acquaintances secure offers from prestigious universities, he reached out to Cheersyou through a senior classmate.

In the post-pandemic era, global hybrid applications have become a major trend. US educational resources remain top-tier globally, while Singapore is a primary choice for Criz, who plans to work in China in the future, given the excellent university rankings. For someone with a "prestige complex," these two regions were the perfect choices.

During the school selection phase, William and the Cheersyou team engaged in deep discussions, performing a precise analysis of every institution and program to aim for top-tier universities in the UK, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

As the application season arrived, William spent many anxious days and nights waiting for results. When the Early Priority admission letter from NUS arrived first, his dream finally became a vivid reality.

Faced with the increasingly competitive domestic postgraduate entrance examination environment in China, Sandra felt deep anxiety and confusion. While some of her peers had already secured school-recommended admissions, she worried she couldn't handle the pressure of the national exams. Through a referral from a senior, she discovered Cheersyou Education.

When Sandra came for her consultation, it was already nearly December. Many schools were entering their final application stages, and with the increased difficulty of studying abroad during the pandemic era, a rapid application for top schools seemed daunting.

Due to the limited time, Cheersyou counselors immediately began an intensive, targeted plan. After in-depth communication, and based on her desire to research Electrical Engineering, her background, and her preferred regions, the team helped her lock in several top programs in Singapore and the UK.

Coincidentally, NTU—recommended during the initial selection—was Sandra’s dream school. Guided by Cheersyou counselors, Sandra meticulously recorded all her undergraduate practical experiences into Cheersyou’s application information system, ensuring she was fully prepared to challenge for her dream offer.


6. 985 Engineering Ace: Top NTU Program Admission with Stellar Research and Competition Background!

  • Undergraduate Institution: Sun Yat-sen University

  • Major: Microelectronics Science and Engineering

  • GPA: 89+ | IELTS: 7.0+

  • Admissions: MSc in Integrated Circuit Design (Joint NTU & TUM), MSc in Electronics at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), MSc in Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU), HKUST, etc.

Alvin contacted Cheersyou Education for a consultation in the summer of his junior year. Since he was aiming for a Hong Kong-Singapore hybrid application—where admissions are often "first-come, first-served" and timelines are earlier than other regions—his preparation window was extremely tight.

Cheersyou counselors immediately drafted a detailed application plan and multiple study abroad scenarios for him. During school selection, as Alvin’s professional direction was very clear, the team focused on Electrical Engineering (EE) programs at the "Top 3" in Hong Kong and "Top 2" in Singapore. Since Hong Kong universities require high deposit fees, Cheersyou helped him balance his application strategy based on timing.

Additionally, counselors suggested he apply for the Integrated Circuit Design program jointly offered by NTU and the Technical University of Munich (TUM). This two-year program offers academic research into the design, development, and manufacturing of integrated electronic products. Its high professional utility made it Alvin’s top choice.


In real-world cases, many applicants rely on the timeline planning of professional agencies, such as: securing target universities (NUS / NTU / SMU) early, arranging submission strategies by rounds, and preparing essays and recommendation letters in advance. Agencies with a long-term focus on Singapore, UK, and US hybrid applications (like Cheersyou Education) typically leverage historical data to help students develop a more rational application pace, thereby increasing the overall admission success rate.
