When do parents join counselling?

Usually early, before deposits or travel. Many families join every key call.

What documents will you need?

Marksheets, ID, photos, and course-specific papers. We send a checklist after screening so you are not scrambling at the last minute.

Can we change preferred city or course later?

Yes, while the file is open. Tell the desk; we update the shortlist instead of locking you into a first guess.
