Interviews with Successful Applicants

  • The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston
    Hitomi KubotaHealth Economics and Health Services ResearchOct, 2026

    The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston

    Interview Date: 2026-10-22

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    I think it is necessary. Because I had narrowed my applications down to a single school, I was determined to be accepted and did not want to compromise on the quality of my documents. The SOP (Statement of Purpose) needs to convey research interests and career coherence within a limited word count, and I felt that not only grammatical accuracy but also logical flow and natural expression directly affected the assessment. Even when you feel you have written well enough, Japanese-style phrasing may remain, or some parts may be hard to understand as intended. Precisely because application opportunities are limited, I think there is great value in reducing anxiety even a little through third-party editing.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I strongly recommend starting early. Recommendation letters in particular take time from request to submission, so it is reassuring to consult recommenders two to three months before the deadline. It is also important to research the target faculty members’ work and papers thoroughly beforehand. I could not contact faculty directly because of time constraints, but I made a point of showing specifically in my SOP how their research topics connected with my experience and interests. If you have time, I think contacting faculty beforehand would provide even more reassurance. I recommend rewriting the SOP repeatedly rather than trying to complete it in one attempt.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes, I would recommend it. Comments explained not only the changes but also why those expressions were better, helping me recognize my own English habits. The turnaround time was clear too, so I could use the service with peace of mind even as the application deadline approached.

  • The University of Hong Kong
    Gloria LiuMaster of China Development StudiesApr, 2026

    The University of Hong Kong

    Interview Date: 2026-04-13

    Do you think it is better to have application essays edited before submission? Why?

    I think it is very necessary. Application essays are an important window through which admissions officers learn about your background, academic abilities, and future potential. Even after checking them repeatedly yourself, there will inevitably be places where the logic is unclear, the wording is not idiomatic, or the structure is less than ideal. Irwin’s editing can make the essay clearer, more professional, and more persuasive, while avoiding misunderstandings caused by grammatical errors or cultural differences.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    I would advise everyone to start preparing early and leave plenty of time to refine each document. Especially with essays, do not submit the first and only version. Write an initial draft yourself, then ask someone experienced or a professional service to review and polish it. Also, tailor your essays to different schools and programs instead of using one essay for every application. Finally, stay patient and confident. Applying requires time and energy, but every step of your effort will be reflected in the final result.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. With Wordvice’s application essay editing service, I ultimately received an offer from the University of Hong Kong. Editor Irwin was very professional: he not only corrected grammar and wording issues but also helped improve the structure and logic, making my personal statement clearer and more persuasive. Without this editing, my application outcome might have been completely different. I sincerely recommend Wordvice.

    와세다대학교

    Interview Date: 2025-11-28

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I think professional English editing helps a great deal, because without being an expert it is difficult to translate Korean expressions into English with 100% accuracy.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    For graduate school, I think a clear direction for your studies and research makes writing a research proposal easier. If it is difficult to choose a topic, I recommend consulting many of your supervisor’s papers.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    This was my first time using it, and I was very satisfied. I really liked the native English editing service, so I would be willing to use it again if the opportunity arises.

  • INSEAD
    Hyunho KimMaster of Business AdministrationJul, 2025

    INSEAD

    Interview Date: 2025-07-19

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Yes, I think it is important. As a Korean, it is inevitable that some English expressions will be awkward, and editing can help correct these difficulties. Personally, I believe the chances of acceptance rise when the writing is comfortable for the reader to read.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    It may sound obvious, but I think it is important to keep checking how many days remain until the document submission deadline. It would be a shame to produce something you are satisfied with only to find the deadline has already passed.. Also, both colleges and graduate schools often hold one-to-one consulting sessions, coffee chats, and similar events in Korea (especially Seoul). I recommend checking the schedules carefully and attending. I think discussing your questions with the person in charge and thinking about how to improve your chances of acceptance will definitely help a great deal.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I think I would recommend it. The person in charge corrected things I had missed and condensed wordy sentences to make them polished. I also liked that each change had a comment to make it easy for me to understand. An acquaintance recommended it to me too, so this was my first time requesting work from Wordvice (EssayReview), and personally it was a very satisfying experience.

    Yes. Editing greatly improves the content and wording of the documents, which can increase the chances of acceptance.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Prepare early and seek professional help.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. The service is professional and always returns the document on time.

  • Zurich University of the Arts
    Harumi ChishimaFine artNov, 2023

    Zurich University of the Arts

    Interview Date: 2023-11-07

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    I think it is absolutely necessary. The arrangement of writing in Japanese and English is fundamentally different. Having a native-speaking teacher check the text, including that aspect, helps communicate your thoughts more accurately to people in the destination country.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    As a student, it is very helpful to have a university teacher check your work for free, but the time available for editing may be very limited, the work may be done carelessly, or requests may not be accepted during vacations. At such times, Wordvice provides timely, fast, accurate corrections and advice. It also teaches you how to structure writing in English: how to convey your thoughts more effectively, what to cut, and what to emphasize. As a paid service, it proposes high-quality writing, and the advice is very useful. People planning to study abroad naturally want to keep expenses down, but I think this is a necessary expense to secure that opportunity.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    This is the service I most recommend among editing sites! Compared with other companies, some only edit the text, while some have a minimum two-week turnaround. Wordvice edits the actual document, so the overall structure is also checked, and an early delivery date can be set. I submitted my personal statement with a month's leeway. I submitted it three times in total at a not-too-high cost. Having the same teacher review it made it possible to assess the situation quickly, while submitting only parts kept costs down and let me have only the necessary sections edited. If I have another application opportunity, I would absolutely like to use this service again!

  • Miho KiyokawaBioengineeringMay, 2023

    University of Washington, Graduate school

    Interview Date: 2023-05-15

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    In Japan, many people have very few experienced applicants around them. Editing by a highly experienced native speaker provides objective advice and suggestions on expressions and structure that catch the reader's eye, so I believe English editing is necessary.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Since studying at graduate school abroad is not very common in Japan, you may feel anxious about insufficient support from those around you. US graduate school applications are particularly demanding, but remember that your TOEFL score is only the starting point. Rely as much as possible on the resources available and work earnestly toward your dream, and a bright future will naturally await you.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    It is my top recommendation: a trustworthy editing service with outstanding value for money.

    Interview Date: 2023-05-14

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    English editing brings the grammar closer to native-speaker usage and improves overall fluency.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Prepare application materials well in advance.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Definitely. Wordvice saved me a great deal of polishing time!

    The University of Manchester

    Interview Date: 2023-03-27

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Before applying to study abroad, I had taken English classes for a year while preparing for exams, so I thought my initial personal statement had no major problems. My study-abroad consultant had also polished it once. But when I received Wordvice's revised documents, I realized there were still so many things that could be adjusted. The editor also suggested improvements to the structure and even inconsistencies in my reasons for applying, helping me understand more clearly what I wanted. I highly recommend having your English polished at least once.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    I would suggest using a consultant or application agent. Some agents are free now, but I still recommend having a professional company revise the application documents.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    It is really fantastic, and I find the different turnaround options very flexible.

    Interview Date: 2023-02-05

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    I believe English editing is necessary for university application documents. Even if you are confident in your English, your perspective still differs from a native speaker’s. They point out things you never noticed, which also helps improve your own English skills.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    By checking each item carefully and completing the procedures with plenty of time rather than at the last minute, I think you can prepare calmly without feeling rushed.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    I recommend it. I compared various translation websites, but Wordvice stands out for its careful, accurate translations.

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Yes. After all, I am not a native speaker, and study-abroad application documents require precise wording, so professional editing provides greater peace of mind.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Start preparing application documents early.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. They keep to the timing very precisely, the pricing is transparent, and the services consistently meet a good standard.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    If you are not strongly convinced about your choice of major, try sharing your research results or portfolio with others. An outside perspective may provide the answer.

    Interview Date: 2022-12-19

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    When applying to a school, your SOP will be the first impression that represents you. I believe a piece of writing that has received professional help even once will make a much more polished impression than one written entirely on your own.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Check the application timeline in advance, and let the professors you will ask for recommendation letters know ahead of time.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    It is definitely necessary. Vocabulary and grammar are assessed as much as content, and even if those are correct, using natural phrasing throughout an entire text is almost impossible, so revisions by others, such as native speakers, are necessary.

    I think the best thing is to have someone you can ask immediately when you encounter a problem.

    University of Texas at Dallas

    Interview Date: 2020-11-01

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I think it goes without saying. Admission to an American university is a real-world process. An interview might be different, but in areas judged solely on writing, such as an essay or personal statement, I do not think being a foreign applicant excuses sloppy English. Even if your English is limited, submitting your writing as it is without English editing could lead the university to interpret it as a lack of effort and enthusiasm. I think the first step in showing who you are is grammatically flawless writing. Also,

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    You can absolutely do it on your own without a study-abroad agency. As someone born and raised in Korea, I also felt lost and frightened at the prospect of applying to a university abroad. I completely understand wanting to rely on someone knowledgeable. However, the financial burden was too great, so I decided to prepare on my own, and it was not as hard as I had feared. Write the essay yourself and have it edited, submit the application online, report your official English test scores online, send the required documents (official transcripts, a copy of your visa, and so on) yourself via FedEx, and then wait for the results in the tracking system—that is it. There were a few instances of trial and error along the way, but you should be able to resolve them. In fact, depending entirely on an agency and not knowing how things are progressing would be more unsettling. Besides, even with an agency, we still have to do much of the work ourselves, so I do not think it offers an enormous advantage. Thanks to sites like Wordvice (EssayReview), my first independent study-abroad experience seems to have gotten off to a successful start. I hope to keep using it often during my studies and graduate successfully as well.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Of course. However, satisfaction may vary depending on the editor. I like my editor, but... others may not feel the same, so I am cautious about making a definite claim. Still, other reviews are generally positive too, so it seems the editors are all of a high standard. My younger sibling and several friends are considering studying or working abroad, and I will enthusiastically recommend this site to them.

    University of Calgary

    Interview Date: 2020-03-05

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Be sure to have the English edited before submitting an application, because even people who have received rigorous academic writing training, if they are not native English speakers, find it difficult to produce drafts meeting English-speaking countries’ expectations for graduate students.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Begin preparing documents two to three months early, because revision is a very lengthy process.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Wordvice is well suited to people who can independently write an entire statement but whose English is not at native level. They provide comprehensive revision services at reasonable prices, so I highly recommend Wordvice.

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    It is necessary. Seeing the edits made me realize that it takes tremendous training for a non-native speaker to produce polished writing.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    The English itself does need editing, but I think it is best to first think things through carefully yourself and build the structure around a clear central idea. 

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Of course. I would definitely recommend it to junior colleagues.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Yes. For non-native English speakers, editing can polish grammar and word choice, effectively improving how their language ability is presented.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Gathering information is important. Carefully reading the school’s official website, using search engines to learn about schools and departments, and contacting alumni through social media can help you determine whether a program is one you like and need. It also helps you understand the school’s requirements and write more competitive application documents.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. Communication is smooth, the service is efficient, and the editing quality is good.

    I think it is absolutely necessary. Even if you have knowledge of English grammar, being able to write is a different matter.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Expressing all your feelings in your statement of purpose is important, but I think submitting it with correct grammar is also important to convey them properly.

    When applying to UK schools, I was not very familiar with writing an SOP. English editing made my SOP more competitive.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    I used Wordvice’s editing service when applying to study in the UK and was successfully accepted into UCL!! Wordvice’s editors are truly meticulous, and customer service responds quickly to questions. I found the whole application process relatively smooth. I recommend it to everyone.

    Interview Date: 2019-05-03

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I think doctoral applications need to give an impression of professionalism. It is therefore important at least to avoid being faulted for aspects other than the essay’s content, and Wordvice’s help was very useful in that respect.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    In fact, I was so focused on test scores and the various documents for my applications that I had not given much thought to requesting editing. On the recommendation of a senior peer already studying abroad, I contacted Wordvice on a tight schedule near the end of the application process. Of course, I could receive the result quickly within my requested time, but if I could return to that stage, I think it would be good to allow more time and have it edited several times.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I wholeheartedly recommend Wordvice! When I received the result, it identified things I had not considered, and some comments even took the content into account, which was extremely useful.

    Interview Date: 2019-02-20

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Yes. Although I had researched online, I still felt quite lost while writing my personal statement. After discussing it with foreign friends and having it edited in English, I realized I had not really grasped the structure and thinking behind an SOP or PS. This process completely transformed my writing. It also helped my command of grammar and word choice.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    The application process is truly complicated and stressful. Having sufficient motivation, preparing early (I missed many scholarship opportunities because of procrastination), and actively seeking help are probably the most important things I learned.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. I initially used it on a friend's recommendation. Although I have not researched other editing sites, the service here is quite good and worth trying if you need it.

    Yes. Many issues with word accuracy and sentence fluency are best revised by a professional native-speaking editor.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    SOPs and writing samples (WS) are truly important in PhD applications; standardized test scores only need to meet the requirements.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Washington University in St. Louis & University of Illinois Urbana Champaign

    Interview Date: 2019-01-16

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    To avoid thinking in Chinese-style English. Wordvice’s editors are very conscientious: they examine every word and sentence, remove Chinese-influenced English, and express the applicant’s strong motivation in idiomatic English.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    1. Finish the GMAT and TOEFL as early as possible. 2. Start preparing essays early, dig deeply into your own small stories, and highlight your strengths. 3. Ask native speakers and friends with above-average English to read your essays, because you have blind spots when writing yourself. 4. Stay in contact with the schools you are applying to. Ask them directly if you have questions; this leaves a strong impression and provides more reliable information.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes! The price is fair, delivery is on time (almost always early), and the editing is thoughtful. The feedback is all very useful, and some expressions can even serve as versatile phrases during interviews.

    Interview Date: 2018-12-20

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Having a native speaker edit the document makes its motivation, grammar, and thinking more complete. It reduces errors and expresses the intended ideas more clearly.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    I suggest first deciding what the document should contain, writing it in Chinese, translating it into English, and then sending it to Wordvice for editing.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes, definitely. It is really good!

  • Carnegie Mellon University
    Tsai, GraceLibrary and Information ScienceDec, 2018

    Carnegie Mellon University

    Interview Date: 2018-12-07

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    After all, I am not a native speaker, and writing often contains unnoticed grammatical and spelling errors. I consider my English average: I scored 15 on the General Scholastic Ability Test and qualified for an exemption from my university’s English courses, but writing a fluent SOP is still extremely difficult. Unless your English is truly excellent and you can independently produce academic writing and the like, it is best to find an English editing service!

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    1. Prepare early: I put everything off until the last minute and spent only one or two weeks preparing for the GRE and TOEFL. My test performance was patchy, and the scores were rather disastrous. The same went for my SOP: avoiding reality, I delayed it until the final week. If you want someone to discuss and refine the documents with you, rush orders generally cost about 1.8 times as much. Adding up recommendation letters and the SOP, then applying that multiplier, I would have had no money left to eat QQ. I had to choose a quicker editing plan focused on sentences and grammar ><. After uploading my painfully embarrassing SOP to Wordvice and hearing editor Gail L.’s advice, I realized I had some strengths too >///<. The editor pointed out my good points and the areas needing work, and reading the comments gave me a great deal of encouragement.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    I found it convenient and fast. If your SOP already has a complete structure and you want correct grammar and smooth sentences, I recommend Wordvice! The editor revises sentences and provides broad suggestions and comments. But if you need structural help, someone to discuss the document with, and three rounds of detailed revision, Wordvice may not be as suitable. If the document is already structured, I would quite strongly recommend it. The extra charge for service within 24 hours is not large either, so it is economical! Finally, although the editor may not see this review, thank you, Gail >////

    Interview Date: 2018-11-30

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I think it is important when you are unsure which words to choose. After editing, I liked that they addressed contextual issues and replaced wording with more appropriate vocabulary. If you have the same concern, keep this in mind!

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Before applying, I researched SOPs extensively, but ultimately I saw it as an essay that reveals who you are. I therefore organized it broadly as 1. Motivation for applying, 2. Experience, and 3. The field I want to pursue and my aspirations, and wrote honestly. Rather than using difficult, impressive-sounding words, I had Wordvice (EssayReview) refine language that I would normally use.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I liked that they kept to the deadline, and it seemed that Wordvice (EssayReview) put a lot of care into the work. I would recommend it if someone else needed this kind of help.

    Do you think English editing is necessary for applications to universities abroad? Please explain why.

    Even if you are confident in your English, there are nuances only native speakers understand and tips for improvement or admission, so I think English editing is essential.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    If applying to several schools, I recommend first gathering information about admission requirements and application periods, then planning exams and applications to suit each school. For document preparation, I think it is important to have a native speaker check every document at least once.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    I would definitely recommend it to others who are also aiming to attend universities abroad.

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Even when I write in English, I think it is good to have the text edited into sentences that are easier for others to understand and expressions that sound more native. It gives me another chance to review my writing from the reader’s perspective.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I created my portfolio in my own style as much as possible. To do that, I think you should avoid relying on, or looking too much at, examples from study-abroad agencies. A portfolio similar to everyone else’s cannot spark interest.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I think it is essential unless you have studied for a long time in an English-speaking culture. I recommend it to friends preparing to study abroad.

    To help interviewers and others reading the SOP properly understand my motivation for applying, I think professionally edited English is better than my own self-taught style.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Wordvice edits quickly, but prices vary by turnaround time, so it is best to request editing with as much time to spare as possible.

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Yes. Even people who have studied English for a long time and write it well may, without a native speaker’s review, express sentences differently from their intentions. Above all, using many expressions that native speakers rarely use can lower the overall quality of the writing.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I do not think I am in a position to offer advice.

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Yes! I think misused English words or phrases in an application can distort what I want to convey. It seems an essential step for clear communication.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I worried and deliberated more because I was applying for a master’s degree completely different from my undergraduate major, and for an International Joint Award (UK & Germany), which is somewhat unfamiliar to Koreans. I therefore needed clearer and firmer motivation for applying, and received Wordvice’s help to convey it well. I have absolutely no regrets!

    Yes, I receive help in many areas, including university and graduate school applications and job applications, and plan to continue :) I recommend it!

    There is clearly a difference between my writing and a native speaker’s language, so it becomes much smoother after editing. I can convey what I want to say better.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    The SOP plays a very important role in admissions. In my case, despite a low GPA, I was accepted with a scholarship thanks to my SOP and portfolio!

    Interview Date: 2018-03-16

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    As a non-native speaker who has never lived in an English-speaking country, I find it very helpful to check whether my intended meaning and nuances are coming across in writing. Even if the original does not require many changes, it is psychologically reassuring to at least know whether I have written it well.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I think it is good to research things well in advance and carefully double-check even things you have already looked at... Above all, the application process is very long and mentally taxing, so I hope you manage your stress well and take time to have fun when you can.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Yes, I would recommend it.

    I think it is best to go through this step, because it helped me in many ways, including identifying errors I had not found when reviewing on my own and suggesting smoother expressions.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    An essay is a very important part of the application materials, so you need to think it through as much as possible, revise it several times yourself, and then have a professional edit it to gradually develop a better essay.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Yes, it is important. Unless you are a native speaker or bilingual student, conveying precise meaning in writing is not perfect, so these editing services seem particularly important to demonstrate academic expertise.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    They seem to place more weight on SOPs, SVs, and writing samples than GRE or TOEFL scores. Editing services seem especially important for those documents.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Yes, I have already recommended it to students around me who are preparing applications.

    Interview Date: 2018-03-05

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Unless you are a native speaker, I think it is difficult to grasp the exact meaning and nuance of the sentences you use. To write a perfect SOP, I see professional English editing as one way to do the very best I can.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Do not be afraid of criticism from people around you; seek advice far and wide!

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Yes, of course. : )

  • State University of New York

    State University of New York

    Interview Date: 2018-02-28

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I moved to the US in my first year of middle school, so my ability to think in an American way when writing essays was somewhat limited. Editing helped me identify my shortcomings, and I think that will help with future essays.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    For college applications, I recommend writing two or three essays, if possible, during the summer vacation of 11th grade. The common essay topics are set in advance, so prepare with those. Since questions differ by major and school, it is best to start applying as early as possible, choose the topics, and allow plenty of time to write. Rushing essays leads to many mistakes.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I think people in the 1.5 generation like me, who did not grow up in the US, would benefit even more from essay editing.

    University of Texas at Dallas (Jindal School Of Management)

    Interview Date: 2018-02-28

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I think it is very important. Even in Korean, a slight wording difference changes the meaning, so I think native-speaker editing is needed to know which expressions are more natural and whether a grammatically correct expression is still awkward.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    The content of the SOP and CV seems more important than language test scores. Meeting the language minimum makes you eligible for consideration, but weak CV or SOP content makes it hard to attract interest.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I did not submit an essay, but used Wordvice for recommendation-letter translation. I liked receiving all the double-checking feedback from at least two native speakers. The price was reasonable too. I think I will use it again.

    The University of Arizona

    Interview Date: 2018-02-28

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Even if you grew up and studied in an English-speaking country, unless you majored in English literature, you may not know what the admissions committee wants. English editing is extremely helpful, and was helpful for me, in applying with writing that both addresses the committee’s expectations and uses the most natural sentences.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Maintaining good grades is a basic requirement. After that, I think the key is how solidly the SOP is structured and how well you convey your enthusiasm for the program. Recommendations from professors in your field are also very important.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I recommend it because paying a few tens of thousands to around 100,000 won to edit crucial documents that can determine five years of your life is by no means expensive.

    Interview Date: 2018-02-25

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Yes, I think it's better to provide the revision before submit the documents. While your're writing, there are some points that you can't notice. Especially, grammar error sometimes deduct some points of the application. Double proof is the best way to prevent.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    I will suggest them to clear describe their motivation why they intend to apply this degree and what's the most important reason that they require to apply. During the oral test, it's better to prepare some potential reasons while the interviewee asked.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes, the service is fast. You can select several types of services to revise documentations. Customized feedback is very good and double proof revised is necessary for applicants.

    Interview Date: 2018-02-23

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    I personally think using editing services before submitting documents further improves their quality, because English professionals may identify blind spots in your writing after reviewing it.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    Be sure to prepare early, whether for essays or study-abroad exams. I started too late myself, leaving very little time to prepare for both the exams and the documents.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. WORDVICE’s document editing is excellent in both quality and speed. I highly recommend WORDVICE to anyone needing this kind of service.

    Interview Date: 2018-02-11

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    It is important. I believe application documents cannot tolerate even small mistakes, and an SOP in particular should be reviewed many times and edited before being submitted in the best possible condition.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I hope you devote plenty of time and effort to writing your SOP. Do not begrudge the money spent on editing; keep working until the end to submit it in the best possible condition. Along the way, you might compromise with yourself and think, 'Oh, this is good enough~' But do not do that. I believe you will achieve good results if you keep exchanging productive opinions with editors or acquaintances who can review your documents, and prepare your application so you have no regrets.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    A major advantage is the realistic pricing compared with other companies and the ability to place orders on weekends and public holidays. I am grateful that the editors work diligently without weekends or holidays off, and I am fully willing to recommend it to acquaintances preparing to study abroad, as long as the prices and editing quality do not change significantly from their current level.

    Unless English is your first language, it is essential to have your writing edited to eliminate usage errors that might bother admissions committees.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I think it is important to invest a lot of time in your SOP and recommendation letters to align them with the school.

    Yes! I have lived abroad, but it was my first essay like this, so having someone check it was helpful.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    I wish I had known about a site like this beforehand and started preparing earlier!

    Interview Date: 2017-11-30

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    I think English editing is essential.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    You can handle graduate school applications entirely on your own. Study-abroad agencies and document-handling companies... They really have too many clients, so processing is slow and they always miss one or two things. In the end, you check everything yourself from start to finish anyway. I signed up because I was anxious too, but eventually became so frustrated that I did everything myself. Even now, I feel terribly upset about the wasted money.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I strongly recommend it. Personally, Wordvice (EssayReview) helped me a lot. While preparing for US PhD applications, I used it three times in total: twice for my SOP and once for a review paper that a professor additionally requested after an interview. I was satisfied every time. Before Wordvice (EssayReview), I actually had my writing edited at a study-abroad agency in Gangnam. Not only did it take a long time to receive the edited version, but after that long wait, the editing was so terrible (especially the terminology in my field....) that I felt devastated. Then an acquaintance recommended Wordvice (EssayReview), and I received their help. After the semester started, I returned to EssayReview for the first time in a while to have a term paper edited, and I am leaving this review of my graduate school acceptance. If anyone preparing for US graduate school is reading my review, I truly recommend using an English editing site like Wordvice (EssayReview) instead of spending money on a study-abroad agency that is just needlessly expensive.

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Application documents create the first impression on the school and prospective advisor, so they must be prepared with care. I think English editing greatly helps make an application polished and effective in communicating its message.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Application procedures differ by university, so I recommend carefully checking their websites and organizing the information in advance.

    Your affiliation when writing the paper

    Application essays are a person’s most important soft asset. They let admissions officers see a more vivid version of you beyond cold, hard credentials, which shows their importance. You must think them through and refine them repeatedly! They are so important!

    Do you think it is better to have your manuscript edited by a native-speaking expert before submission? Why?

    I would advise choosing a partly DIY approach, so you can learn a lot and avoid becoming passive and unmotivated. Choosing a good editing agency is important, but you should personally handle the preliminary work of selecting schools and programs.

    What advice would you share with others about research writing and the journal publication process?

    Wordvice serves study-abroad applicants at affordable, accessible prices. I highly recommend it!

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    Yes, the editor was very dedicated.

    Which universities and departments accepted you? Do you plan to enroll?

    I was accepted into a master’s program in education at the University of New South Wales in Australia. I plan to start next month.

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Yes, I think it is important. If a school were choosing which is easier and preferable to read—a polished piece or one with grammatical errors—it would naturally choose the former. I think it makes you more competitive.

    What advice would you give others about the college or graduate school application process?

    Even if progress is a little slow, follow the procedure. If it becomes too slow, I think it is also important to keep in touch by email or phone to stay informed about progress.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Yes. I have used Wordvice several times. What I liked was that they always met the promised deadline and provided detailed, understandable feedback. I think it is a useful service when a text contains many academic terms and it is difficult to ask people around you for English editing.

    It was not my desired university; I was accepted by SK hynix, a major semiconductor company! I am definitely joining!

    Do you think English editing is important before submitting your final application? Why?

    Perhaps because my first editing experience elsewhere was so poor, I did not expect much. But I was moved to see how thoroughly you reviewed every tiny detail ㅜㅜ.

    I received an unconditional offer for UCL's MSc in Clinical Pharmacy, International Practice and Policy. I accepted the offer.

    Do you think it is better to have your application documents edited in English before submission? Why?

    I think English editing before submitting application documents is very necessary. It can prevent grammar errors and improve readability. Having a professional editor revise the writing ensures its quality.

    What advice would you give others about the process of applying to study abroad?

    1) Understand your career plans and start preparing early. 2) Prepare for language tests and application documents at the same time. 3) Research the master's programs you intend to apply to thoroughly, even downloading recent student handbooks. For your main target schools, describe the advantages of their programs as specifically as possible.

    Would you recommend Wordvice’s services to others?

    Yes. Wordvice's service is punctual and professional, and the prices are reasonable. Service is available even on holidays, which makes it much more convenient.

    Interview Date: 2016-04-07

    Which schools and programs accepted you?

    I am conducting research at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST).

    What is most important for being selected for the Global Ph.D. Fellowship?

    First, I think choosing an appropriate research topic is most important. It should not be unrealistically broad, but too narrow a topic is not good either. It would be even better if anyone looking at it would think it was worth supporting. Second, a deep understanding of your research topic must come first. To achieve that, I suggest reading many relevant papers and magazines.

    Could you offer advice on preparing a GPF application?

    As mentioned above, choosing a research topic is most important. Based on that topic, the application should describe well how you will independently lead the research and the anticipated benefits to the scientific community from carrying it out.

    Could you offer advice on preparing for the GPF interview in English? What questions should applicants prepare for?

    First, I would advise approaching the interview with confidence. The interview panel includes professors from various fields, not just your particular field. It is therefore hard for me to say what questions will come up, but I think you can answer any question fluently if you enter the interview with a deep understanding of your proposed topic. Additionally, in my case, the interviewers said I must answer only in English, whereas a friend was told to answer in Korean.

    Was Wordvice’s English editing of your GPF application helpful?

    Yes, it helped tremendously in preparing the application, and thanks to it I think I wrote the English application well without major problems.

    Interview Date: 2016-03-11

    Which schools and programs accepted you?

    I was accepted into the Master of Science in Islamic Finance and Management at Durham University in the UK.

    You were accepted to a prestigious university abroad. Could you share some tips?

    I received a great deal of help writing my personal statement during the initial admissions process. Since it was my first time writing one in English, I initially paid much attention to structure and flow. Through two-person editing, I received detailed structural feedback too, which helped me produce a more solid piece. Later, as I tried to make the writing more polished, there were many additions and changes. Each time, I could use Wordvice editing as the final step, allowing me to finish a piece I felt confident about.

    What did you like about Wordvice?

    Even after editing, I asked questions about the corrections and was truly surprised at the quick replies. That helped me finish the writing and apply much sooner, and I am very grateful. I have used other editing sites before, but have never experienced such an organized system, fast editing, prompt and detailed post-editing feedback, and affordable prices as Wordvice provides.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    I have used Wordvice editing five times in total so far. (Order numbers: #17015, #17186, #17268, #17309, #17508.) The fact that I confidently used it five times throughout the admissions process shows how much trust Wordvice inspired. I expect I will use it a lot while studying in the UK too. I am really pleased to have discovered an editing site that can greatly help with the challenges of studying abroad. From safely submitting my application to receiving my acceptance notice now, Wordvice has been a tremendous help. Once again, I sincerely thank everyone involved.

  • Stanford University
    Lim, Y.S.Master of Arts in International Policy StudiesAdmitted

    Stanford University

    Interview Date: 2014-08-01

    Which schools and programs accepted you?

    I was accepted into Stanford University’s Ford Dorsey Program in International Policy Studies (IPS).

    How important do you think essays or statements of purpose are for admission?

    International affairs and public policy programs generally require an SOP of at least two pages and sometimes four or five, which shows how important it is. They are not merely looking for information absent from the résumé; they assess the student’s specific firsthand experiences, accomplishments, and even writing skills, so I think considerable time should be invested in the SOP.

    You were accepted to a prestigious university abroad. Could you share some tips?

    For essays and SOPs, especially in this field, each school wants a different essay style, so first make sure you understand each requirement. If you reuse one type of SOP with only slight modifications without specifically reflecting the school’s requirements, admissions officers will recognize it immediately, making a good impression difficult. Also, it is important to develop the story and establish a clear outline before writing. Instead of including every career experience and activity, select those relevant to the school and plan ahead so all paragraphs connect closely. I recommend asking senior peers and friends for their opinions and developing the piece from that stage. Finally, even while drafting, before sending it to Wordvice, I recommend Googling every expression and phrase to check whether Americans normally use it in essays and whether there are more appropriate alternatives. I think you need to complete that self-check before using Wordvice to receive a high-quality review rather than minor wording corrections.

    What did you like about Wordvice?

    First, because I had been educated entirely in Korea with no overseas living experience, there were expressions and hyphenation errors I could not catch myself, however much I Googled. Wordvice caught all those errors, making my essay more polished. They also reviewed the overall structure and logic, not just wording, and sometimes provided in-depth reviews suggesting that a paragraph be changed in a particular direction, which also improved the content quality. In particular, comments on well-written paragraphs helped me understand how to write essays that US schools favor. Finally, the speed of the review and reasonable pricing were major advantages too.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Yes, I would recommend it, and have already recommended it several times to friends preparing for graduate school or jobs abroad. In Korea, once you graduate from university there are virtually no places you can trust to review an essay. I think Wordvice offers not only reasonable prices but also a service backed by experts.

    Interview Date: 2014-06-21

    Which schools and programs accepted you?

    I was accepted into London Business School’s MBA 2016.

    How important do you think essays or statements of purpose are for admission?

    MBA admissions consider various factors, so it is hard to say exactly how much weight essays carry. However, I can say with certainty that they are very important.

    You were accepted to a prestigious MBA program abroad. Could you share some tips?

    Specifically for essays, it is important to allow enough time to find a topic that brings out your own individuality and to structure the writing. After the first draft, you should also have several people proofread it. Even content that looked good when you wrote it may have a great many things to revise from another perspective.

    What did you like about Wordvice?

    Since I had written all the content and structure myself, I needed a service that could check the writing’s flow and grammatical errors. Most such companies were overseas and expensive. Wordvice, however, provided the service I wanted at a reasonable price, so I was satisfied.

    Would you recommend Wordvice to others?

    Yes, I think it is a very good service. Above all, MBA essays should fundamentally be structured and written by applicants themselves, without others’ help, because they need their own individuality. However, as Koreans whose native language is not English, having a native-speaking editor correct expressions and grammar to make them natural is an essential step. I recommend it because this essential service is available affordably.
