Hi Aditti, all I wanted to say was “Thank you". You were a great help in my struggle to be what I am.
I know you from 2010 when you operated from your house in Lajpat Nagar.
I am not sure if you still remember me. I was trying to secure admission in the University of Calgary to their MGIS programme and you helped and guided me through the admission process. With your help I was able to secure admission to UoC, but because the course was super expensive, I never did it. Instead, I applied for PR and got it in 8 months in 2012.
I immigrated to Canada in 2012, went to UoC to request them to charge me local student fee (since I had PR) and they agreed. I spoke to a few people (professors/professionals) and all of them recommended not to go for MGIS since I already had an Urban Planning degree and an MBA in Real Estate.
I pulled back my admission application and started looking for a job in Urban Planning (I used to work with MCD as an Assistant Town Planner in Delhi). It took me a few months and a lot of hard work but I got a job (without any formal Canadian education and experience) in one of the largest municipality of Canada as an Urban Planner. Last year, I got promoted to a Senior Planner position.
All I wanted to say was “Thank you..”
You were a great help in my struggle to be what I am.
I hope you and your business are doing good. Are you still helping students with their dreams?
Best
Such Chandhiok”
