Wellesley College

As an international student needing a full ride, Borderless felt like a safe space for me. It made the whole admissions process so much clearer and less overwhelming, with resources that were actually easy to understand and apply.

Borderless helped me a lot during this process, especially when writing my personal statement - the specific feedback and details I got back were spot on. My PIQs & all my supplementals were also reviewed by Borderless app and it gave specific feedback to improve them. I also used the Brainstorming tool (amazing! It really sounded like a real counselor) for most of my apps. The activities list review tool was also great, it helped me reorganize the order and small details that I didn't detect before. Thank you for building this incredible app!

University of Chicago

I've read some interviews and articles by students getting scholarships in different universities and this has really inspired me through different stages in my journey! I also used the essays editor and evaluator, which was really super helpful when it comes to evaluating many essays while applying and at least get a sense of how good it is without having to ask my friends to read a hundred essays for me! I also appreciated that it was almost completely free and I didn't have to pay anything, and I know how this can be helpful for students who can't afford to pay for advisors. Thank you so much!!

NYU Abu Dhabi

I used the thirty min call with Veronica twice and used the essay helper many times. The calls really helped me because i did one during brainstorming and one when i thought i already had my final draft and the first one helped me eliminate some bad ideas and second one helped me reframe my final version to be much more connected to my culture. Essay helper was absolutely amazing, and it helped me with focus and especially for the additional NYU essay as i was confused with what exactly to write within such a limited wordcount.

THE PLATFORM WAS A LIFESAVER, when i was managing 10000 of applications to colleges all at once. I read almost all the stories of students who got into universities, where i was applying

Wesleyan University

Borderless was really helpful for me. I almost read all the shared stories and found them truly inspiring. Also, I used borderless to review my essays online, organize my college list, and extracurricular activities. Thank you so much Veronica for all the videos you shared on social media, and for this great website. I am very grateful to borderless for helping me turn my dream a reality, even by just using your free services.

NYU Shanghai

I have been reading the stories since I was in 9th grade, and it helped me kind of plan out my extracurriculars. But the thing that helped me the most was the Borderless App's review and rating mechanisms. It helped me refine my essays, and I believe that's what got me in

Both the Borderless app and Instagram account have been a huge help in my application process. As a low-income international student, I found community in the Instagram account, watching content that helped me and showed me I am not alone. The app helped me organise my college list, tracking which applications were done or what was left to do. And the writing assistance was one of my favourite tools. From brainstorming to revision, absolutely helpful.

First Borderless expanded my college options through the college list service. With the stories, I was inspired to apply to some colleges and understand their admissions. With the ECs reviewer, it provided me with the chance to theme my profile to actually start crafting my profile. Thanks!

Borderless was meaningful to me and to my process of learning and preparing to applications. I used every tool to review my essays and extracurricular activities and read many stories to learn about the profile of the approved students at the university I wanted to apply. I had mentorship to help me, but to people who can't afford or weren't approved at any mentorship, I believe Borderless is a powerful app.

Case Western Reserve

I mostly watched the Instagram reels for advice and as I applied everywhere on my own without any agent I must admit those were REALLY helpful. Especially for the ECA recommendations — we don't really have any fancy clubs in our school or any high research opportunities. All of my ECAs were self-initiated, and Veronica's advice really helped me describe the impact I made through them in all my applications. I was thrilled to be accepted by CWRU since the USA admission process is 10 times more brutal than the Canadian one.

Middlebury College

Borderless was my savior during the application process. I mostly used the "extracurricular" and "essay" section to get feedback about what I was writing about. Borderless also made it easy to comprehend how to approach each supplemental question depending on the college/university. Finally, I would say that reading stories from different backgrounds was the starting point of motivation.

NYU Abu Dhabi

I loved the entire essay help section on the Borderless app! The brainstorming, the review, it all helped me so much in getting to where I am today.

DePaul University

The Borderless App has been helpful a lot in this college application season - as it is my first time, and I didn't have any mentors or people who could check my essays - it helped me survive. Especially the brainstorming with Borderless made me feel like i am less dumb and actually made my ideas more structured to put the all in one essay and convey the message I want. I am REALLY thankful to Borderless, I don't know what I would do without it.

Berea College

Borderless was instrumental in my journey! I heavily used the Activities section guide to refine my descriptions and prioritize them according to Common App standards. The essay brainstorming tools and college list evaluations gave me much-needed clarity. I also spent a lot of time reading Borderless Stories and even reached out to past participants to get "insider" insights on specific universities, which helped me feel more connected to the community.

Purdue University

I got into Purdue and a chunk of my acceptance goes to Borderless. I believe an application is nothing without essays and Borderless quite literally saved me with last minute reviews. Purdue was the first university I was going to writing supplementals for, and I genuinely had no idea how to begin, what to write, and if what I was writing was meaningful at all. That's where Borderless came in!! Its initial roadmap helped me start, and that framework helped me get my thoughts in order. Even after finishing my essays, Borderless AI caught many shortcomings within my essays, even minute ones, which I think have played a huge role in my acceptance to Purdue West Lafayette, and that too in one of the most competitive majors, Computer Science.

Bucknell University

I mostly used the essay review tool, which really improved my writing. I also gathered all my college options in one place, making my application process much more organized and easier.

It really helped me to structure my essays — I crafted most of my essays using Borderless, as I didn't use a college counseling service neither at my school nor outside counseling. For someone who had no confidence with writing and no knowledge about where to start, this tool was more than helpful. I read stories about many colleges and started making my dream school lists out of it. I am hopeful to be able to make a positive impact on other fellow international students on this platform just as I was given so much from the past applicants. Thank you so much.

Borderless really helped me through this whole journey. I had a lot of activities, but was unsure how to describe or order them. Borderless made that process so much clearer and easier. It also helped me refine my essay by fixing the grammatical issues and giving me writing advice, which made a big difference in my essay.

Adelphi University

I've been reading Borderless's stories for years now, but the most useful tool would definitely have to be the Activity Description Tool. It was honestly so helpful, from organizing them and telling me how to utilize the character count. Something I don't see mentioned much about it is how it helps spotting mistakes. I wrote 1 hour instead of 10 hours and it helped me catch that, or I would have totally been screwed since it was a really unique and niche activity of mine.

Borderless has been incredibly helpful throughout my journey because it gave me both practical support and real motivation at the same time. Reading the stories and interviews of other students was one of the most meaningful parts for me, because it made the whole process feel achievable and reminded me that people from different backgrounds can reach their goals with the right effort and guidance. Those stories stayed with me at different stages of my journey, especially when I needed reassurance that the path I was working toward was actually possible. I also found the essay and activities review tools extremely useful, since they helped me improve my application in a more thoughtful and organized way, and gave me a clearer sense of how to present myself better.
