Questions students actually ask

A ticket is a booking of our team's work on one specific scholarship application. It covers: a professional CV built for that program, your essay developed together with you, a full review and organization of every required document, and preparation for the scholarship's exam or interview if it has one. The work is completed within three days of your booking.

No. Not a single dollar of your payment goes to any university or scholarship provider, and Beacon is not affiliated with them. Your payment is for our team's preparation work — nothing else. The scholarship itself is granted by its provider, based on their own selection.

Yes. Scholarships belong to their providers, and you can always pursue one on your own. The ticket is for students who want professionals handling the CV, the essay, the documents, and the preparation — because a strong application is real work, and doing it alone in a second language is hard.

No — we're an independent service. That independence is the point: we work only for you, not for any institution.

The price ($150–$300) reflects how demanding that application is. A highly competitive program means deeper essay work, more documents, and harder interview preparation. You always see the exact price on the scholarship page before you decide — no hidden fees, ever.

When you book. The work begins immediately after your booking is confirmed.

Honestly stated: because our team starts working the moment you book, payments are final once work has begun. Three days later, the work is delivered — that's what the fee pays for.

Two protections you always have:

1. If we ever fail to deliver your application package within the promised window, you receive a full refund.
2. If we look at your booking and find you don't meet the scholarship's requirements, we tell you before starting — and you're refunded.

Not being selected, or not passing the provider's exam or interview, is not grounds for a refund — the fee pays for preparation work, which is completed either way. We say this clearly here so no one is surprised later.

Because the work is real. Day one we collect your information and plan; day two we build your CV and essay with you; day three we finalize everything and deliver your complete package. Rushing produces weak applications — three days produces strong ones.

Some very demanding programs do. In that case we tell you before you pay, with an honest timeline. You'll never pay first and discover a delay after.

Your documents (transcripts, certificates, ID details the application requires), honest answers about your story and goals, and reasonably quick replies when we ask you something. The faster you respond, the smoother your three days go.

Yes. Each ticket covers one scholarship's application. If you're pursuing several, you can book each one — and if you're unsure which are worth your money, ask us first. That advice is free.

Many do — run by the provider, not by us. We prepare you for it: practice questions, a mock interview, and direct feedback so you walk in knowing what to expect.

Selection is competitive and the decision belongs entirely to the provider. Meeting the requirements — grades, certificates, eligibility — is your responsibility, and we help you verify them before you ever pay. What we control is the quality and completeness of what the committee sees from you. No honest service can guarantee selection; be careful with anyone who promises you a seat.

Only what the application itself needs — your name, contact details, nationality, education history, grades, and the documents the scholarship requires. It's used to prepare your application and for nothing else. We don't sell it, we don't share it beyond what your application requires, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.
