There's a moment in every journey where you pause and realize just how far you've come. For us, that moment came when Edward Consulting was recognized as the Most Impactful Organization in International Education in Nigeria by Global Elite Business Magazine, a UK-based publication trusted by over 10,000 investors, senior executives, policymakers, and industry leaders worldwide.

This award isn't just a trophy. It's a testament to every student we've walked alongside, every scholarship we've helped secure, and every "impossible" dream we've helped turn into reality.

But let's be honest: this isn't about us. It's about the students.

‍

The Impact in Numbers

Over the past six years, we've helped African students secure over $27 million in scholarships to Harvard, Oxford, MIT, Cambridge, Columbia, UPenn, and universities across the US, UK, Canada, Spain, France, and Germany.

But behind every number is a story: The student who was told "no" a hundred times before hearing "yes." The family that believed when belief felt redundant. The young person who refused to let their circumstances dictate their future.

That's what impact really means.

Why We Do This

We started Edward Consulting with one mission: to prove that African students belong at the world's best universities, and to make sure they get there.

We've seen brilliant students work three jobs just to afford application fees. We've watched dreams die because no one explained how scholarships work.

We do this because talent is universal. Opportunity is not.And if we can be the bridge? If we can change even one life? Every late night is worth it.

To Every African Student Reading This

If you've ever doubted whether you belong at Harvard or Oxford, you do. If you've wondered whether fully funded scholarships are real, they are. If you've thought international education is out of reach, it's not.

We've helped hundreds of students just like you, students who started with nothing but a dream and now hold degrees from the world's best universities and work at Fortune 500 companies. Your turn is coming. And we'll be here every step of the way.‍

‍

What's Next?

This award isn't the finish line. It's fuel.

Fuel to help more students. Fuel to secure more scholarships. Fuel to keep opening doors. Because as long as there's one brilliant student who thinks their dream is impossible, our work isn't done.

Here's to the students. Here's to the dreamers. Here's to everyone who's been told "you can't" and decided to prove them wrong.

This is for you. And we're just getting started. 🇳🇬✨
