READY TO PLAN YOUR NEXT CHAPTER?
Start with your goals and get clearer next steps with Joy Chowdhury, U.S. Army veteran and UCSG founder.
UCSG provides independent education planning and initial intake support. Schools and VA determine admissions, transfer credit, and benefit eligibility.
“When I served in the United States Army, I learned that leadership begins with responsibility, discipline and standing beside the people who depend on you. I built UCSG on those same values. Every student deserves clear information, honest guidance and a team that respects the importance of their educational journey.”
Based in Jackson Heights, New York, UCSG provides educational guidance, program research, application coordination and student support for F-1 students exploring university transfers and graduate-program options in the United States.
UCSG is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. For immigration-related decisions, students should consult with a qualified immigration attorney.
