"I had a wonderful experience with my career counsellor, Hassan Riaz at IDP Education Faisalabad. He guided me throughout my study abroad journey and I successfully got my visa for BSc Computing and Education at Ulster University, Northern Ireland. The whole process was smooth, and Sir Hassan was extremely supportive and professional. Highly recommended!"
