Programmes
One team. Four steps. Your strongest application.
Every programme runs through the CruxBridge Pathway, in the order your deadlines demand: where you stand, what you can show, what you say, and where you apply and how you pay.

Questions
Frequently asked.
Anything else? Ask us on WhatsApp.
Is the strategy session really free?
Yes. It's 40 minutes on Zoom with our team, with no obligation. You'll leave with a clear read of your profile, your list and your likely costs, whether or not you work with us.
How much do your programmes cost?
Fees are set per student, because they depend on how many universities and countries you apply to and how much profile work you need. You get the scope and fee in writing after your free session, before you decide anything.
Will you write my essays?
No. Universities expect your essays to be your own work, and you confirm that when you submit. We help you find the story, outline it and give line-by-line feedback on every draft until it's ready.
Can you guarantee admission or a scholarship?
No one honestly can. Admission and aid decisions belong to each university. We help you build real evidence, tell your story well and apply where you have a genuine chance, at a cost your family can manage.
Do you work with students in my country?
Yes. We work online with students and families anywhere in the world, on Zoom and WhatsApp.
Which countries do you cover?
The US, UK and Canada are our core. We can include other countries, such as Singapore, Hong Kong or the Netherlands, alongside them.
Can parents join?
Yes. Parents are welcome in the free session, especially for the part about costs and financial aid.
Do you help Master's applicants?
Yes: programme choice, statement of purpose, CV, recommendations and funded routes such as major scholarships.
Not sure which route fits?
We'll tell you honestly in your free 40-minute strategy session.
