About Us

At SetSail Education Consulting, we believe that every student is setting sail towards a unique and promising future. Our mission is to be their trusted compass — guiding them through the complex journey of college admissions with integrity, insight, and care.

​

Founded by experienced international school counsellors - Roopa Sounderraman and Samyukta Raman, SetSail offers deep expertise in helping high school students across curricula and continents find their best-fit universities. 

Our Philosophy

Anchored in Integrity

We offer honest, data-driven guidance that helps students identify universities where they will thrive- academically, socially and financially.

A Trusted Crew on Board

We work closely with students and families, listening deeply and collaborating intentionally to chart a meaningful and achievable plan.

Navigating the Individual Current

No two students are alike. We design personalized application strategies that reflect their strengths, aspirations and values.

An Ocean of Possibilities

We broaden students' horizons- introducing them to academic and career opportunities they may not have considered, but that are deeply aligned with who they are.

We're With You Wherever You Are

With a global perspective and virtual  reach, we work with students and families no matter where they are. Whether Singapore, India, Dubai- or anywhere else in the world- we're here to help you set sail with clarity, confidence and purpose.

Testimonials

“Throughout my journey as a student attempting to navigate the complex world of university admissions, I was always guided and supported by Ms. Roopa Sounderraman with her copious knowledge and experience in the College Counselling industry. From essay writing to interview prep, her guidance enabled me to present myself as a well rounded candidate to top universities. With her advice, I received multiple offers from the world’s top universities in the UK, Australia, and Singapore. I am now excited to study law at LSE and owe a great deal of my success to her unwavering support. .”
