Career Counseling
Obviously, the main purpose of education is to achieve career goals. Unless the ‘career’ is carefully charted, education’s value is lost. At Impel, we not only guide students to plan their education, but also direct their ideas towards career planning, which is the ultimate goal for them. By providing counseling with expertise and experience, we help students to consider various options and guide them in the right direction. This will enhance value for their education, thus strengthening their approach for a stable and successful career.
Impel has professionals in its ranks, who have versatile qualifications and experience to suggest right career options. We also have latest data, updated regularly, which provides necessary inputs on the opportunities, scope, prospects and financial rewards in any given field of work.
Country Selection
How do you choose when there are different countries offering world-class education? How do you determine which country is right or wrong, given the fact that you may not about a country or its circumstances fully?
Impel makes all the difference to you here. We will provide you with unbiased information on all the countries that we provide services and steer you in the right direction – North for USA, West for UK and East for Australia!
To help you make the choice, we also provide detailed comparison of the three countries, which will empower you to decide by yourself. Of course, Impel’s guidance in choosing the right country will always be there for you, in relation to the choice of program, level and career opportunities.

We have detailed and up to-date information on all the courses at all levels (Certificate, Diploma, Bachelors, Masters etc.) in all the countries.

If you take just one field of study – for example Computer Science – you will find more than 800 different universities offering this program in USA!! As a student, how will you choose the most appropriate university that is compatible with your academic profile? Which is good or average? Where can you find financial aid? The task becomes huge for an aspiring student. Not for Impel’s counselors.
We have a complete database – updated continuously – of all the universities and programs. Our team members constantly research information on these universities and colleges to determine what is right for you.
With such expert assistance, you cannot go wrong at Impel, in choosing the right university for the right program, at your level of study.
This is provided as part of our regular service.
SOP Assistance
Each university/Department has its own requirement for preparing a Statement of Purpose, which is otherwise known as Statement of Intent, College application essay or simply essay etc. This SOP is a crucial admission document which makes or breaks an application. If the SOP is good, universities may overlook a few minor deficiencies and make a positive decision. At the same time, nothing can help a student, if the SOP is badly prepared, even if other aspects of the application are good enough.
When necessary, Impel reviews the SOPs, evaluates the content, suggests changes and make them (the SOPs) most effective for applicants’ purpose. This service is provided FREE OF COST.
Impel has developed a complete ‘Application Support Kit’, which includes,
- SOP Guidelines
- SOP Dos and Don’ts
- Sample SOP
