Frequently Asked Questions
Who are the consultants on EasyAbroad?
Our consultants are students or young professionals who lived in the city you're heading to for a semester abroad, within the last five years. They’ve gone through the same experience and can offer practical, first-hand advice on everything from housing and social life to cultural tips.
Can I become a consultant too?
Yes! If you’ve studied or worked abroad as part of a university semester and want to help others while earning money, you can apply to become a verified consultant. Share your experience and support students as they prepare for their next big step.
How do I know the advice I get is reliable?
Every consultant on EasyAbroad is verified, we check proof that they’ve recently studied or worked abroad. Plus, after each session, students leave reviews and ratings, helping maintain high-quality, honest peer-to-peer support.
What can I ask during a consultancy session?
You can focus your session on one or more of the following topics, depending on what interests you most: Finding accommodation, Social life and making friends, University/company information, or Best and worst city spots, including travel and weekend plans. Additionally, you can include an extra note with any specific requests, so the consultant can prepare accordingly.
What to do if the consultant rejects my meeting request?
No problem! The consultant likely had something unexpected come up. Just send a new booking request via the consultant’s profile and timetable. If this issue occurs more frequently, please feel free to contact us.
What if the consultant doesn’t show up or send a meeting link?
If your consultant doesn’t appear at the scheduled time or fails to send a meeting link in advance, don’t worry — just reach out to our support team and let us know what happened.
Can I book multiple sessions?
Absolutely! Our goal is to help you feel as prepared as possible for your time abroad. If booking multiple sessions helps you get there—go for it! You’re welcome to connect with different consultants as often as you need.
