Why Arzoo Academy is special?

Arzoo Academy is guided by three simple but golden values: Integrity, Student Success and Team. The groups who have lived these values have seen superior outcomes (as you can read in our testimonials).

 

We do not believe in short cuts. You have to do the right thing in every situation no matter how appealing it may be to cut corners. We are committed to working with integrity every single day and we expect nothing less of our students.

Why Arzoo Academy?

 

I distinctly recall how intimidating and frustrating the whole college admissions process was for me. My parents, simple salt of the earth types, had no clue because all their energies were consumed in raising five kids and putting food on the table. And our high school college counselor was overburdened with a large pool of students. Unless you were extremely persistent and had luck on your side, chances were you would be one in a crowd that got very basic advice. I got lucky because I got guidance from a couple of close friends who were getting personalized help from an expert. Sadly, not much has changed over the years. Every year I speak to many students who express similar frustrations with the whole process. It is my arzoo (hindi word for a deeply embedded wish) to ease these pain points to the best of my ability and set my students on a path of life long success. Arzoo Academy is the first step towards achieving that wish.

I’d love to help you succeed and transform your life.
