Meet the WSA team

The people behind WSA

At WorldStudentAdvisors, our strength lies in our people. Our UK Head Office and Sub-Saharan Africa Regional Office work together as one team, supporting students from their first enquiry through application, visa preparation and enrolment.

British Council UK knowledge-trained counsellors

British Council UK knowledge-trained counsellors

Supporting students with trusted international education guidance since 2012.

Named and accountable

Your assigned counsellor has a name, a face, and a direct line. Once matched, you'll always know exactly who to contact.

Qualified and trained

Our Student Counsellors support students through international admissions, student visa preparation and the wider student journey.

Ethical and honest

Your counsellor recommends what's right for you, not what pays the highest commission. If studying abroad isn't the right choice, they'll say so.

How we support you

From your first message to your first day

Every student follows the same path through WSA, and you always know whose hands you are in.

  1. Step 1

    Enquiry

    You get in touch. There is no fee and no obligation, and you are never handed to a call centre or a chatbot.

  2. Step 2

    Claudia

    Claudia Ingado is usually the first person you speak to. She listens to what you want to achieve and makes sure you reach the right counsellor.

  3. Step 3

    Named Student Counsellor

    You are matched with one named Student Counsellor who stays with you. You will always know who you are dealing with and how to reach them.

  4. Step 4

    Application

    Your counsellor works through courses, universities, documents and deadlines with you, and reviews everything before it is submitted.

  5. Step 5

    Visa Preparation

    Your counsellor supports you through student visa preparation, so you know what is needed and when.

  6. Step 6

    Enrolment

    Support continues through pre-departure preparation and enrolment. Your counsellor does not disappear once you have a place.

Your counsellor

What your counsellor does for you

Listens first

Before recommending anything, your counsellor takes time to understand your academic background, career goals, budget, and family circumstances.

Explores options honestly

They present a range of suitable destinations, courses, and institutions, explaining the trade-offs clearly so you can make an informed decision.

Guides applications

Step-by-step support with personal statements, documents, references, and deadlines. Everything is reviewed before submission.

Supports through to arrival

Visa applications, accommodation, pre-departure preparation, and ongoing support after you arrive. They don't disappear once you've enrolled.

We support students in Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe, and Angola. See our office contact details.

For parents

You'll always know who is supporting your child

We understand that sending your child abroad is one of the most significant decisions your family will make. You need to know that someone trustworthy is guiding them.

Your child's counsellor is available to you directly, by phone, email, or WhatsApp, at every stage. You'll know their name, their qualifications, and exactly what's happening with your child's application.

You're never left wondering. You're never left out.
