About Us

We've Walked This Path. Now We Guide Yours.

Gradmate Global Consultz was built on a simple but powerful belief — that every student deserves honest, informed, and expert guidance when taking one of the biggest decisions of their life. We don't just process applications. We shape futures.

Our Story

Born from Experience. Built with Purpose.

"I didn't have a mentor when I navigated my own study abroad journey. Gradmate Global Consultz exists so no student ever has to figure it out alone." Gradmate Global Consultz was founded by someone who understands the study abroad experience not just professionally — but personally. As a student who once sat where our clients sit today — overwhelmed by university shortlists, anxious about visa paperwork, unsure which scholarship to chase — our founder knows exactly what is at stake.

That firsthand journey, combined with years of professional expertise in education consulting, gave birth to Gradmate Global Consultz — a firm where empathy meets excellence. We are a new age, Hyderabad-based education consulting firm with a bold ambition: to become India's most trusted name in international student placement.

Our founding team brings together international academic credentials, years of counseling practice, and a deeply personal understanding of what Indian families go through when sending their children abroad. We launched Gradmate because we saw a gap — too many students receiving generic, rushed, or commercially motivated advice at a moment that deserved nothing less than careful, personalised guidance.

Today, we go beyond counseling. Our Gradmate Academy — an online eLearning portal — empowers students to self-prepare for IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, GRE, and language certifications in German and French, all from one platform.

Mission, Vision & Approach

What We Stand For

OUR MISSION

Empower through informed choices

We equip students and families with honest, complete, and personalised information — so every decision is made with clarity, not confusion.

OUR VISION

A global opportunity for every deserving student

We envision a future where no Indian student misses out on a world-class education simply because they lacked the right guidance or information.

Personalised, transparent, end-to-end

No templates. No rush. Each student gets a dedicated counselor, a customised roadmap, and full support from first consultation to landing day.

Our Core Values

Principles We Never Compromise On

01

Honesty

We tell you what's realistic, not what you want to hear. Our credibility depends on your trust — and we guard it fiercely.

02

Student First

Every recommendation we make is driven by what's best for the student — academically, financially, and personally.

03

Transparency

We don't just do the work for you — we educate you through the process so you feel confident and in control.

04

Support

From the first call to the flight boarding pass, we are available, responsive, and genuinely invested in your outcome.

Founder's Note

The Person Behind GRADMATE

Tharakaramu M

Founder, Gradmate Global Consultz

"When I was applying to study abroad, I wished someone would just sit with me, understand my situation, and tell me the truth. That's exactly what GRADMATE does."

I built GRADMATE GLOBAL CONSULTZ because I've been on both sides of this journey. As a student navigating a foreign university application alone, and later as a professional counseling hundreds of families, I saw one consistent gap — students were being treated as transactions, not individuals.

At GRADMATE GLOBAL CONSULTZ, we do things differently. We take time to understand who you are, what you want, and what you can realistically achieve — and then we build a strategy around that truth. We are new, but we are driven, deeply experienced, and completely committed to your success.

Welcome to GRADMATE GLOBAL CONSULTZ. Your journey starts here.
