Before Apply Yourself Global

“I hadn't even started writing my application before the program. I didn’t know what was needed or how to begin.”

Michelle had the ambition, but not the structure. Like many high-achieving students, she felt stuck. Her goals were big, but the path forward felt unclear.

After Apply Yourself Global

“With AYG, I found a framework that helped me explore, reflect, and grow. I was part of a group of like-minded people, and I had a safe space to figure things out.”

Michelle went from unsure to unstoppable, earning her spot in one of Canada’s top Global Health programs and planning a future PhD in Canada or Europe.

“My application was a hundred times better than anything I could have written alone.”

Michelle's Confidence Breakthrough

“I learned that I’m capable of so much more than I ever let myself believe. Grad school and a PhD were always ‘theoretical.’ I was full of self-doubt. But now? I know I can do it.”

Michelle's Advice to You

- Don’t just set a goal—make a plan
- Think beyond “getting in” to grad school
- Ask yourself: what do I want to do, build, or impact?

“It’s not just about the school. It’s about knowing what kind of law you want to practice or the research you want to do. That bigger vision makes it easier to figure out your next step.”

Why She Chose Apply Yourself Global

Michelle didn’t want a template.
She wanted a personalized plan and someone who would push her to believe in herself.
