We accept a one-time upfront payment.

No refund will be issued under any circumstance.

The admission packages are non-transferable.

The packages and scope of work decided thereof are valid for four months from the date of enrolment unless otherwise agreed at the outset.

Once paid for, the number of schools in a package cannot be downgraded.

School choices cannot be altered once the essay consultation process starts.

Online application and essay questions: Verify and share the essay questions of ALL shortlisted schools within 5 days of enrolling. Begin your online application simultaneously to check for comprehensive program requirements (which differ from school to school) pertaining to TOEFL/IELTS, transcripts, video essays, etc., within 5 days of enrolling. The candidate is responsible for arranging tutoring/logistics support/deadline reminders/submissions through the app portal or anything outside the scope of our work.

Essay comments: Your final, consolidated essay content and comments are due no later than 7 days before the earliest deadline of the school among those shortlisted. This buffer is fixed, and it exists so we have adequate time to deliver quality edits rather than last-minute ones. In case a program has a rolling deadline, the earliest deadline of the remainder of the schools will be considered for the assignment for the school with the rolling deadline.

Editorial feedback: Comments for all essays across all programs must be shared in one consolidated round, irrespective of individual deadlines. We do not action partial or staggered feedback. This preserves both quality and turnaround time for every candidate we work with

Original authorship: All essay content shared with us for editing must be written by you, in your own words. We do not accept or edit AI-generated (e.g. ChatGPT) drafts and do not provide editorial feedback on these. This is both a policy matter and a safeguard for you.

Calls to discuss essays: We are glad to get on a call to discuss and brainstorm story map suggestions or essays, but only after you have shared your thinking in writing by leaving line-by-line comments on the draft at all relevant junctions. This ensures our calls are focused and productive rather than open-ended, and that the direction we land on is properly documented.

Developing drafts: After the narrative suggestions for essay direction are made, all drafts need to be written/rewritten by the candidate themselves. This is in line with industry norms that admissions consultants are required to adhere to.

Third-party review: If you would like to share drafts with mentors, alumni, or others for their input, you may do so on your own timeline. However, this does not extend our internal deadlines mentioned above. The final consolidated version you send us must still need to arrive within the agreed window. Importantly, we do not guarantee additional or last-minute brainstorming sessions or overhaul of the essay based on third-party inputs. The candidate may implement the changes independently and at their own risk.

Missed deadlines: If inputs are not received within the timelines above, we will collaborate on the most recent version available to ensure the submission deadline itself is met.

In case of non-compliance and/or disrespectful behavior, Scholar Edits will stop collaborating with the candidate. No refund will be issued. 

While we can share an educated projection, we do not guarantee a candidate’s acceptance to B-Schools or scholarship opportunities thereof.

We do not provide GMAT (or other tests) mentoring, visa assistance, or any other services that are not discussed here or elsewhere on this website.

Scholar Edits reserves the right to revise the Terms & Conditions, Price Packages, etc., without prior notice. 

By enrolling with us and paying the fees, we understand that you agree to the Terms & Conditions.
