IDP’s new app to transform the international landscape for the next generation of international students.
After a year of uncertainty and travel disruptions, international students are now starting to regain control over their education future thanks to a new app and service launched by IDP Education.
The IDP Live fast-track service helps students in India to receive in-principle offers for their dream course right from their smartphone
or in an IDP office, alongside one of IDP’s expert counsellors.
Students are invited to share their study goals and
current qualifications. Upon completing their academic profile, they are matched to courses they are eligible to apply
for. If they want to proceed, students can receive an in-principle offer from
their chosen institution within 30 minutes of submission.
This transformative real-time response means the
student can choose to only apply to courses where they know they meet the entry criteria, greatly
reducing the number of applications they submit, whilst institutions receive higher-quality
applications, more quickly.
Piyush Kumar, Regional Director (South Asia), IDP
Education said the app centres around bringing IDP’s trusted advice and support to students,
right from the convenience of their phone.
“The last 18 months have reminded us that technology is great, but its real purpose is to empower us, and to connect us together with others. When making decisions as big as studying overseas, you
need to know you have someone in your corner. IDP Live streamlines the paperwork and administrative process so students can spend more time having real conversations about their future and
their goals.
“With IDP Live, students can have confidence that all institutions listed are high quality and that they have the support of IDP’s expert team with them at every step of their research journey.”
One of the biggest improvements of IDP Live is the introduction of fast-tracked applications with select universities.
“Rather than having to
apply to multiple institutions, IDP Live matches students earlier in their
decision-making journey and allows them to get a near-instant indication on whether they will receive an offer to study,” Mr.Kumar said.
Andrew Barkla, IDP Education Chief Executive Officer,
said the service represented an entirely new way for students to find the
best-fit courses.
“IDP Live will bring our industry into a future in
which technology enhances the interactions between our counsellors, students
and institutions, driving the best outcomes for all. The introduction of the fast-track service, which combines cutting-edge technology and trusted human
interactions, has immediately begun to help students around the world to find
best-fit courses. Our evolving ecosystem, a connected community of students,
institutions and counsellors is working to help drive the recovery of
international education,” Mr Barkla said.
