Student stories

No stories topublish yet

Gradsy is live in build, and we have not yet had a student finish the journey and give us permission to publish what they thought of it. When that happens, their words go here.

We would rather show you nothing than show you something invented.

It would take an afternoon to fill this page with warm, plausible-sounding quotes from students who do not exist. Plenty of pages read that way.

We are asking students to trust us with a decision that shapes the next decade of their life. A page of quotes we made up is a strange way to begin that. So this page stays empty until it is not.

In the meantime, here is what we can show you: numbers you can check, and a product you can use.

Used Gradsy? Tell us the truth

Good or bad. We learn more from what did not work than from what did, and if you are happy for us to publish it, we will ask you first and show you exactly how it will appear.

  • What you were trying to do, and where you were applying from
  • What actually helped, and what got in the way
  • How much of your name you are comfortable with us using

How we handle stories

The rules we hold ourselves to

01

Published only with permission

Nothing appears here without the student agreeing to it in writing, having seen exactly how it will be shown.

02

Their words, not ours

We fix typos. We do not rewrite a quote to say something the student did not mean, and we do not trim the parts that are less flattering to us.

03

As much anonymity as they want

A first name and an initial is enough. No photographs of students are used to illustrate a named quote — if you see a face on this site, it is illustration, never evidence.

04

Withdrawable at any time

A student can ask us to take their story down whenever they like, for any reason or none, and we do it.

Build with us

Universities, schools, partners and people who want to work on this — we would like to hear from you.
