Possibilities Pakistan (http://www.possibilitiespakistan.org) is a non-profit organization that extends free college counseling to all Pakistani students who aspire to attend international universities. The organization’s goal is to guide Pakistani students through the complicated application process so that they may ultimately find and be accepted to suitable top-notch foreign universities
The project includes a free online guidance service and a one-hundred-and-fifty page e-magazine that lays bare the details of applying to college. The guidance service is run by a network of over 200 Pakistani and American students currently studying at renowned universities all over the world. When current Pakistani high school students have questions about applying to college, they simply e-mail the organization ([email protected]), and their queries are forwarded to appropriate members of the team who have faced similar problems before. The magazine is a detailed walkthrough of the college application process, with articles explaining the details of everything you need to know about getting into a foreign university. It also features reviews of universities attended by the team members, so as to provide Pakistani college applicants with a unique Pakistani perspective on colleges.
Each year, countless Pakistani students are not accepted to universities due to errors that would have been easily averted if any counseling were available at all. To date, Possibilities Pakistan has guided over 200 students, and the e-magazine has been read over 2500 times. Ultimately, the aim is to bring about a revolutionary change by establishing, for the first time, the concept of free educational guidance for all in Pakistan. Feel free to use their help.
